Results:

The TRNL pool via standard size estimation returned a mean of ? nM. This should be adjusted for the difference between the standards' fragment sizes and the expected product size (452 vs 220). 9.41x(452/220) = 19.33 nM

16S is close enough to the standards' fragment size that the standard estimation can be used. 16S mean is 46.34 nM.

iSeq Sequencing:

Dilute TRNL Pool to 1 nM based off qPCR results. qPCR results are in pM, but 1:1000 dilution used. The results are effectively in nM for pool.

  • 1000/Results = ul of Pool to Add

    • 1000/19.33 = 52uL of Pool to Add

  • 1000 - ul of Pool to Add = ul of “10 mM Tris 8.5” to Add

    • 1000- 52 = 948 uL of 10mM Tris 8.5 to Add

Pool 16S Pool to 1 nM based off qPCR results. qPCR results are in pM, but 1:1000 dilution used. The results are effectively in nM for pool.

  • 1000/Results = ul of Pool to Add

    • 1000/46.34 = 22 uL of Pool to Add

  • 1000 - uL of Pool to Add = ul of “10 mM Tris 8.5” to Add

    • 1000- 22 = 978 uL of 10mM Tris 8.5

Combine 100 ul TRNL 1 nM pool to 100 ul 16S 1 nM pool to create a combined 1 nM pool

Dilute 1 nM full pool to loading concentration of 50 pM:

  • Add 5 ul 1 nM Pool to 85 ul “10 mM Tris 8.5” and 10 ul 50 pM PhiX

  • Remove iSeq 100 i1 Flow Cell from refrigerator 5’s crisper drawer and open white foil pack and allow to equilibrate to RT for 10-15 minutes.

  • Open “iSeq 100 i1 Reagent Cartridge v2”. Turn on iSeq100

  • Click on “Sequence”. Watch Video. Do what video tells you to do. Follow on screen instructions until run starts.
