This chapter describes how to perform the following procedures:
• Set up the Ion Chef
™
Instrument for use by diluting the libraries, and loading the instrument with all
of the required reagents and consumables
• Start an Ion Chef

• Library or combined library stock solution
• Molecular-biology grade nuclease-free water
• P200 pipettor and filtered tips
• Waste container
Dilute the library
Sample libraries are quantified at the end of the library preparation workflow and are typically diluted
to a concentration of 100 pM. The Ion Library Equalizer
™
Kit procedure also normalizes library
concentration to 100 pM. Libraries may require further dilution before use in Ion Chef
™
template runs.
