# Seal tube airtight with paraffin and place in weighted holder.
# Double seal tube airtight with paraffin and press firmly in weighted holder.
# Boil 400 mL water in a 500 mL beaker.
# Boil 800 mL water in a 1L beaker.
# Cool on bench 5 min.
# Cool on bench 3 min to ~95 °C.
# Place weighted holder with sealed oligonucleotides into the beaker.
# Place weighted holder with sealed oligonucleotides into the beaker.
# Incubate on bench overnight or until water is about room temperature (~4 hr). At the end of this process, the complimentary ssDNA's are hybridized into as single dsDNA linker with sticky ends at 1mM final concentration.
