PURIFICATION: DNA for the automated sequencing facility
should be prepared with a QIAGEN spin column and dissolved in
H2O or EB buffer (do NOT dissolve in TE buffer). This will assure
the most consistent and highest quality sequence data.
QUANTIFICATION: You must quantify your DNA by running 1ul
on a gel adjacent to a DNA concentration standard. In addition, we
recommend you take an OD reading of your sample.
