What do I need to provide to have nucleic acids analyzed by the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer ?
Each sample that you wish to have analyzed on the Agilent should be provided to the facility in TE (Tris-EDTA) solution at a concentration of at least 50 nanograms per microliter. The concentration should not exceed 250 nanograms per microliter. It is permissible to use nuclease-free water in place of TE. Please deliver your samples on ice and have each tube labeled clearly and unambiguously. The Agilent can run 12 samples at a time. It is a good idea to also label the tubes 1 through 12 to define the exact lanes you wish each sample to be in.
