2 6 2015 Library Creation for BS Samples

Today I made the libraries after doing the BS conversion yesterday. I used the Epigentek EpiNext Post-Bisulfite DNA Library Preparation Kit (Illumina) that was received on January 16, 2015. Since I'm multiplexing these to run on a single lane I also used a Epigentek EpiNext NGS Barcode (Index) Set-12 for the barcoding portion following those instructions instead of the other kits instructions. I used the converted BS DNA from yesterday. Assuming there was no loss of DNA in the BS Conversion process that amounts to 111 ng per 10 ul sample. The library creation process was as follows.

All volumes in ul. All reactions mixtures made by adding reagents from largest volume to smallest. Done in 1 96 well plate with strip caps covering open wells when not in use.  Borrowed Ambion 96-Well plate magnet from Seeb Lab. Thermocycler used was Ernie, the 96 Well Plate Cycler.

  1. Made mixture, vortexed, centrifuged plate at 4300 rcf for 1 min 
  2. Incubated in Thermocycler without heated lid
    1. 5 min at 95 C
    2. 5 min at 4 C
  3. Added 1 ul Conversion Enzyme Mix
  4. Incubated in Thermocycler without heated lid
    1. 60 min at 37 C
Cleanup dsDNA
  1. Resuspended MQ Binding Beads via vortex
  2. Added 36 ul beads to samples
  3. Vortex to mix
  4. Centrifuged plate 4300 rcf for 1 min
  5. Vortex to resuspend beads in sample (decided not to vortex/centrifuge again)
  6. Incubate at 10 minutes at room temp
  7. Place plate on magnet for 2 minutes to collect beads
  8. Removed supernant
  9. Washed sample with 200 ul 80% EtOH for 1 minute
  10. Removed supernant
  11. Repeated Wash once
  12. After removing supernant, allowed beads to air dry for 10 minutes 
  13. Removed Samples from magnet
  14. Resuspended beads in 12 ul Elution buffer via pipetting
  15. Incubated samples 2 minutes at room temp
  16. Placed sample back on magnet for 2 minutes
  17. Moved 12 ul supernants from Row A on plate to Row B
    1. Note Albion magnet doesn't work well with samples less than 25 ul. To attempt to clean up the beads, I held the magnet at an angle depending on which side of the magnet the beads were on and ran the sample over the magnet until visibly clear. Still did not fully remove beads from sample.

Cleanup library
  1. Resuspended MQ Binding Beads via vortex
  2. Added 25 ul beads to samples
  3. Mixed via pipetting
  4. Due to bubbles had to centrifuge 4300 rcf for 1 min
  5. vortexed beads into suspension
  6. Incubate at 5 minutes at room temp
  7. Place plate on magnet for 2 minutes to collect beads
  8. Removed supernant
  9. Washed sample with 200 ul 80% EtOH for 1 minute
  10. Removed supernant
  11. Repeated Wash twice
  12. After removing supernant, allowed beads to air dry for 10 minutes 
  13. Removed Samples from magnet
  14. Resuspended beads in 12 ul Elution buffer via pipetting
  15. Incubated samples 2 minutes at room temp
  16. Placed sample back on magnet for 2 minutes
  17. Moved 11 ul supernants from Row D on plate to Row E
    1. Note Albion magnet doesn't work well with samples less than 25 ul. To attempt to clean up the beads, I held the magnet at an angle depending on which side of the magnet the beads were on and ran the sample over the magnet until visibly clear. Still did not fully remove beads from sample.
Was not able to collect full volume of 11 ul from sample as beads were particularly troublesome in removing at this step. Attempted to clear them out using method described above but some just did not take. Without being able to measure it, it looks like most samples are between 9-11 ul in volume. 

Samples stored in -20 C freezer in 209. Will quantify with Sam next week to verify concentrations.
