Inventor: SAKARYA ONUR
IPC: G16B30/00
Filed: 2021-09-17
Abstract: Detecting cross-contamination between test samples used for determining cancer in a subject is beneficial. To detect cross-contamination, test sequences including at least one single nucleotide polymorphism are prepared using genome sequencing techniques. Some of the test sequences can be filtered to improve accuracy and precision. A prior contamination probability for each test sequence is determined based on a minor allele frequency. A contamination model including a likelihood test is applied to a test sequence. The likelihood test obtains a current contamination probability representing the likelihood that the test sample is contaminated. The contamination model can also determine a likelihood that the sample includes loss of heterozygosity representing the likelihood that the test sequence is contaminated. Test samples that are contaminated are removed. A source for the contaminated test sample can be found by comparing contaminated test sequences to other test sequences.
