• Set up the following reaction:

 8uL of eluted PCR product
 1uL of NEB Buffer 2
 0.5uL EcoRI
 0.5uL BamHI

• Incubate at 37 degrees on the thermocycler for 1hr
• Run an agarose gel, and melt with 600uL ADB buffer at 55 degrees. ****NOTE: If you are running short of time, this is an acceptable stopping point
• If the DNA is shorter than 300bp, add 250uL of isopropanol and mix prior to loading it on the column
