Özet

In this research, we have developed a web based TaqMan Array Cards (TMDK) Data Management System that responds to the needs of collecting, sharing and uploading data of many surveillance projects, and a Ct-value prediction algorithm to determine target gene existence in sample. Any epidemic case can rapidly be detected and comparative evaluations can be done for the results of different sites while maintaining data integrity since data access is provided through single point. Our Ct-value prediction algorithm resets the errors caused by individual based value identification while keeping Ct consistency. In our tests, with parallel calculations, we have observed that the critical operations can be completed under 30sec and analyzes could rapidly be done.
