Used 100mL, 8 day old culture inoculated from a plate on [20090505](/Sam%27s+Working+Notebook+Jan-May+2009#sjw20090505). Resuspended pellets in 740uL of TE and took an OD600 via the NanoDrop. Diluted the sample appropriately to an OD600 ~ = 1.0 in a final volume of 740uL TE ([see the last three measurements for OD600 of final dilution](http://eagle.fish.washington.edu/Arabidopsis/20090513%20C.pugetti%20SJW.bmp)). Followed protocol. Recovered 300uL of aqueous phase prior to precipitation with isopropanol (Step #21). Resuspended DNA in 20uL of H2O. Will run samples on gel according to JGI instructions. ![](https://eagle.fish.washington.edu/Arabidopsis/20090514%20C%20pugetti%20gDNA%20JGI%20QC.jpg) Lane 1 - 15ng standard (5uL) Lane 2 - 31ng standard (5uL) Lane 3 - 63ng standard (5uL) Lane 4 - Marker 2 (5uL) Lane 5 - C. pugetti DNA (5uL: 3uL + 2uL dye) Lane 6 - Marker 3 (5uL) Lane 7 - 125ng standard Lane 8 - 250ng standard (5uL) Lane 9 - 500ng standard (5uL) Results: DNA looks stellar! Just like the example gel in the JGI QC documentation. however, looks to be too little TOTAL yield of DNA to send for sequencing (need
