Color Matrix Correction
After registration and intensity extraction, Real-Time Analysis corrects for cross talk
between channels. Cross talk occurs when a cluster shows intensity in the C channel and
some intensity also shows in the A channel, for example. Using a 4x4 color matrix, Real-
Time Analysis generates matrix-corrected intensities with reduced or no cross talk, and
balances differences in overall intensity between color channels.
Empirical Phasing Correction
During the sequencing reaction, each DNA strand in a cluster extends by 1 base per cycle.
Phasing and prephasing occurs when a strand becomes out of phase with the current
incorporation cycle.
} Phasing occurs when a base falls behind.
} Prephasing occurs when a base jumps ahead.

B Read with a base that is prephasing
Real-Time Analysis corrects the effects of phasing and prephasing using the empirical
phasing correction algorithm, which maximizes the data quality at every cycle throughout
the run.
Phasing and prephasing results are recorded in the file named EmpiricalPhasing_[lane]_
[read]_[tile].txt, which is located in the folder Data\Intensities\BaseCalls\Phasing.
