Pooled the DNA of the 400ppm samples (6B2 & 6B5) and pooled the DNA of the 1000ppm samples(1B1 & 1B2) , for a total of two samples. 50ng of each sample was used to make the pools, for a toal of 100ng of DNA in each pool. Calculations are below: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1e7EF05akWeBtO7Xz0UWXhIzRlkVU5HA_rjCE3c4SPEw/edit?usp=sharing](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1e7EF05akWeBtO7Xz0UWXhIzRlkVU5HA_rjCE3c4SPEw/edit?usp=sharing) `` Each pooled sample was brought up to a final volume of 24μL for use in bisulfite conversion kit. Performed bisulfite conversion of sheared DNA from [20150113](https://robertslab.github.io/sams-notebook/posts/2015/2015-01-13-speedvac-c-gigas-larvae-oa-dna/) using the Methylamp DNA Modification Kit (Epigentek) according the manufacturer's protocol. Samples were eluted with 10μL of Buffer R6 and stored @ -20C. * * *
