## Elute your DNA (Step #5) in 10μL of H<sub>2</sub>O (NOT Elution Buffer).  This is the eppendorf tube you will send for sequencing, so make sure it is clearly labeled.

## Fill a .2ml PCR Strip Tube (not a 1.5ml Eppendorf tube) with 10ng/100bp of your pcr product. For example, if your DNA product is 580bp, then you want 58ng. So, if your DNA concentration was 25ng/μMol, then you'd want to insert 58ng x 1μL/25ng = 2.32μL of your PCRed DNA into the tube) solutio product,  10pMol (10<sup>-12</sup> moles) of primer, and bring the entire volume to 20μL with DI water.

## Fill the tube with 10 picoMoles of one primer. For example, if your primer is at 10μM concentration, then insert 10 x 10<sup>-12</sup> Moles * (1L/10*10<sup>-6</sup>moles)=10<sup>-6</sup>L=1μL.

## Label the strip tubes individually. Then wrap them in foil and on a peice of tape on the foil write your PI's name, your name, the date, and the name of the set of samples. (The foil itself isn't special, a bag could be used too, anything to keep them together and labelled.)
## If you are still confused, the people at the facility are extremely patient and helpful. Talking to them in person may be best.
