+FASTAptamer-Count requires FASTQ formatted input files.
+
+.. class:: infomark
+
+Input files should be trimmed of constant regions and filtered for only high-quality reads.
+
+------
+
+**FASTAptamer-Count** serves as the gateway to the FASTAptamer suite of bioinformatics tools for combinatorial selections.  
+
+For a given FASTQ input file, FASTAptamer-Count will determine the number of times each sequence was read, normalize sequence frequency to reads per million, and rank and sort sequences by decreasing total reads.
+
+Output is generated as a sorted and non-redundant FASTA formatted file in which each unique sequence generates a FASTA entry with the following information in the description line:
+
+	>RANK-READS-RPM
+
+RANK is the relative abundance of the sequence within the population. In cases where two or more sequences are sampled with equal abundance, FASTAptamer-Count follows standard competition ranking (e.g., “1-2-2-4” where two sequences are tied for second).  READS is the raw number of times a sequence was counted. RPM is “Reads per million,” which is a normalized value that allows for comparison across populations of varying read depth. RPM is calculated as: RPM = (READS/(population size)) x 10^6.
