Creation of Carrier DNA (400 ul):
Material:
- salmon sperm: 4 mg.
- ddH2O: 2 ml.
Method:
- you need to resuspend 4mg of salmon sperm in 400ul of ddH2O.
- deanturate DNA at 95 ℃ for 5 minutes.
- store carrier DNA solution at -20 ℃.
Notes:
- salmon sperm should be autoclaved before use, however denaturation at 95 ℃ is enough.
- salmon could be not easy to resuspend.
- salmon sperm to weight is very difficult. It is not a problem if you cannot precisly weight the quantity you need.
