I received my oligonucleotide and the tube looks empty, or I have received several oligonucleotides, all of the same scale synthesis, and the amount of sample in each tube looks uneven. Why?
The physical appearance of the dried oligonucleotide can differ due to small variations that normally occur in the drying process. Oligonucleotide appearance in the sample tubes may range from a small, glassy pellet to a relatively large white, fluffy pellet. Most samples have a white fluffy pellet. All sample tubes should be microfuged before opening, to prevent loss of any sample that may have been dispersed in the tube during shipping.
