Analysis credits for RNA-seq Analysis Portal
To run the initial Align and count analysis in RNA-seq Analysis Portal you will need analysis credits. Instructions on how to add analysis credits to your account are described in the following sections. The process differs depending on whether you are logged in with a My QIAGEN or a QIAGEN IPA account.
Credits for My QIAGEN accounts
When logged in with a My QIAGEN account, you can add analysis credits to your account using either the lot number of your QIAseq RNA sample kit or an analysis credit code following the steps below. If you will be using a QIAseq RNA sample kit lot number, you can skip the step Purchase analysis credits.
- Purchase analysis credits. You can purchase analysis credits on https://geneglobe.qiagen.com/analyze/analysis-credits. Choose between GeneGlobe Analyze RNA-seq (12), or GeneGlobe Analyze RNA-seq (24). Once you have placed your order, you will receive an email with the analysis credit code.
- Redeem analysis credits. You can redeem analysis credits using a lot number from one of the supported QIAseq RNA sample kits or an analysis credit code at https://geneglobe.qiagen.com/analyze/analysis-credits/redeem-credits. For instructions on how to locate the lot number, see figure 2.
Figure 2: The lot number is on the label of your RNA sample kit box.
