Resuspend DNA
This step uses RA1 to resuspend the precipitated DNA.
Consumables
u
RA1 (46 µl per well)
u
Foil heat seals
About Reagents
u
Dispense only the volume necessary for each step. The
Extend and Stain BeadChips
procedure also
requires RA1.
u
Use fresh RA1 for each step that requires it. Properly stored RA1 that has not been dispensed for this
resuspension step or the extend and stain step is considered fresh.
u
RA1 might form visible precipitate or crystals. Before each use, hold in front of a light and inspect. Invert
several times to redissolve the solution as needed.
WARNING
This protocol uses an aliphatic amide that is a probable reproductive toxin. Personal injury can occur through

Instructions
RA1
-25°C to -15°C
Warm to room temperature in a 20°C to 25°C water bath. Mix to dissolve any remaining
crystals.
3
Preheat the Illumina Hybridization Oven to 48°C.
4
Preheat the heat sealer for at least 20 minutes before use.
Procedure
1
Add 46 µl RA1 to each well of the MSA1 plate.
2
With the dull side facing down, apply a foil heat seal to the plate. Hold the heat sealer sealing block down
firmly and evenly for 5 seconds.
3
Incubate in the Illumina Hybridization Oven for 1 hour.
4
Vortex at 1800 rpm for 1 minute.
5
Pulse centrifuge at 280 × g.
6
Repeat steps
and
as needed to resuspend the pellets.
7
[Optional]
Unless you are stopping, you can set aside the MSA1 plate for up to 1 hour before proceeding.
