I only have scf files – can I use PeakTrace?

No. The scf file does not contain the raw data needed for the PeakTrace reprocessing. If you have a large sequencing project that you would like to reprocess using PeakTrace and only have the scf files, we suggest you request the original abi traces from the sequencing facility that generated the data. Most large sequencing centers archive their original ABI files. If they don’t suggest that they start doing so.
