A partly-commercial resource that also supplies freeware to the general public. The freeware it supplies include a DNA trace viewer and editor (TraceEdit), MRSA strain/spa-typing software (SpaServer), and epidemiological typing software (EpiCompare). The SpaServer can be used to collate and harmonize data from various geographic regions. This WWW site is freely accessible to internet users and the spa-repeat sequences and the -types can be downloaded. Chromatograms of new spa-repeats and/or -types can be submitted online for inclusion into the reference database. Ridom TraceEdit is a cross-platform graphical DNA trace viewer and editor. TraceEdit displays the chromatogram files from Applied Biosystems automated sequencers and files in the Staden SCF format. Incorrect base calls can be edited and saved. The program Ridom EpiCompare can calculate various criteria for data of different typing techniques. It combines easy calculation with ease of data handling. Ridom EpiCompare can calculate the following parameters: *Typability is the percentage of distinct microbial strains which can be assigned a positive typing marker. *Reproducibility is the percentage of strains that give the same result on repeated testing. *Discriminatory power of a typing method is its ability to distinguish between unrelated strains. the an important ability of typing systems. *Typing system concordance helps to compare different independent typing systems.

The program compares nucleotide or protein sequences to sequence databases and calculates the statistical significance of matches. BLAST can be used to infer functional and evolutionary relationships between sequences as well as help identify members of gene families.
