Ran ~500ng of each sample: Geoduck adductor muscle 1: 6.8μL Geoduck adductor muscle 2: 20μL (260ng) Geoduck foot 1: 16.6μL Geoduck foot 2: 20μL (200ng) Oly adductor muscle: 4μL Oly mantle: 4.7μL Results: ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sr320/LabDocs/master/protocols/Commercial_Protocols/ThermoFisher_OgeneRuler_DNA_Ladder_Mix_F100439.jpg)(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sr320/LabDocs/master/protocols/Commercial_Protocols/ThermoFisher_OgeneRuler_DNA_Ladder_Mix_F100439.jpg)[![](http://eagle.fish.washington.edu/Arabidopsis/20150915_gel_gDNA_oly_geoduck.jpg)](http://eagle.fish.washington.edu/Arabidopsis/20150915_gel_gDNA_oly_geoduck.jpg) The gel is loaded in the order listed above (going left to right on the gel). All samples look really good with prominent high molecular weight bands and little smearing.
