mBRAVE - Metabarcoding at Scale

Notice: mBRAVE Systems will be temporarily unavailable Friday Feb 6, 2026 from 2 pm to 6pm EST due to a scheduled network maintenance.

Multiplex Barcode Research And Visualization Environment

Rapid Processing

Cluster computing is utilized to distribute analysis across multiple servers to reduce processing time from hours to minutes for common run sizes.
Fully Configurable

Supports flexible pipeline and configuration of all parameters by users. Data can be reanalyzed under varying parameter combinations to optimize for each experiment.

Secure Collaboration Environment

Run data need only be uploaded once before sharing with research teams and reviewers. Data is stored securely and shareable in password protected workspaces until publication.
Custom Reference Libraries

Along with access to the BOLD database for identification, custom reference libraries can be defined in BOLD and directly imported into mBRAVE.
