Standard protocols for DNA shearing

Standard operating conditions

Sample volume:

 

100 µl

Tubes:

 

0.65 ml Bioruptor

®

 Microtubes (Cat. No. WA-005-0500)

Tube holder:

 

0.65 ml tube holder for Bioruptor

®

 Pico (Cat. No. B01200042) for 12 x 0.65 ml tubes

Sonication buffer:

 

TE (10 mM Tris, 1mM EDTA, pH 7.5 - 8.0)

DNA concentration:

  1-20 ng/µl (10 ng/µl recommended)

Samples are vortexed (5-10 sec) and centrifuged (10 sec) before shearing.

For optimal results samples should be stored on ice during 5-10 minutes prior to sonication.

Temperature:

 

 4°C – 

Water Cooler (Cat. No. BioAcc-Cool) & Single Cycle Valve (Cat. No. B02020004)

Sonication cycle & total sonication time:

 varies depending on desired DNA size (see table)

Note:

 Recommended protocols are subject to change without notice. Additional protocols are available on demand.
