Extraction Date: May 17, 2019
Samples
ID | Spawning Date | Content | Sample Quantity (µL) | Sample Conserv. | Tech |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
120 | 2/11/2018 | Eggs | 100 | 300 uL Shield | Erin |
797 | 4/11/2018 | Eggs | 100 | 300 uL Shield | Erin |
Extraction Notes
- Samples were already preserved in 300µL DNA/RNA Sheild so did not add more
- Digested for 3 hours and 40 minutes at 55°C at speed 35 in Incubator-Genie because test tubes were too large for the thermomixer
- Added additional 15µL Proteinase K after 2 hours and 50 min
- Some lipids left in samples
- Pelleted at 2300 rcf for 1 min
Qubit
Quantified May 22, 2019
- Followed Broad Range dsDNA and RNA Qubit protocol
- All samples were read twice
