FastqCleaner: an interactive Bioconductor application for quality-control, filtering and trimming of FASTQ files.

Background: Exploration and processing of FASTQ files are the first steps in state-of-the-art data analysis workflows of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) platforms. The large amount of data generated by these technologies has put a challenge in terms of rapid analysis and visualization of sequencing information. Recent integration of the R data analysis platform with web visual frameworks has stimulated the development of user-friendly, powerful, and dynamic NGS data analysis applications.
