Small genome sequencing using an Illumina Miseq. Genomes are enzymatically fragmented and “barcoded”. Instrument yields 22-25 million reads. Great for bacterial and viral genomes. Can also be used for PCR products or DNA fragments greater than 300 bp.

Sample Preparation:
The method of DNA extraction will depend on your organism of study but genomic DNA should be very clean, free of RNA, and have a 260/280 of 1.8 – 2.0.
Sample Concentration:
For each sample, please provide at least 100ng at a concentration that is at least 30ng/ul in 10 mM Tris-Cl, pH 8.5 (Qiagen’s EB Buffer). Please do not use TE!
Sample Submission:
All requests must be submitted through iLab. See the links below for your particular institution.
All Customers:
Please provide a gel documentation image of your samples, concentration, and 260/280 ratios. This is for QC purposes and we will not sequence your samples without this information.
