If you are pooling, record information about your samples before beginning library preparation
for later use in data analysis.
If you are pooling using adapter index tubes, Illumina recommends arranging samples that
will be combined into a common pool in the same row. Include a common index in each
column.
If you are pooling with the DAP, arrange samples that will be pooled together in the same
orientation as the indices in the DAP.

This process describes how to optimally fragment the gDNA depending on the downstream
application. Covaris shearing generates dsDNA fragments with 3' or 5' overhangs. The
fragmentation process is optimized to obtain final libraries with the following average insert
sizes:
Table 1 Insert Size Options

Input DNA Per Sample
Recommended Read Length
350 bp
550 bp
100 ng
≤ 2 x 101 bp
200 ng
≤ 2 x 151 bp*
* Read lengths greater than 2 x 151 bp produce a significantly higher percentage of overlapping read-pairs.

This process converts the overhangs resulting from fragmentation into blunt ends using End
Repair Mix 2. The 3' to 5' exonuclease activity of this mix removes the 3' overhangs and the 5' to
3' polymerase activity fills in the 5' overhangs. Following end repair, the appropriate library size
is selected using different ratios of the Sample Purification Beads.

A single ‘A’ nucleotide is added to the 3’ ends of the blunt fragments to prevent them from
ligating to one another during the adapter ligation reaction. A corresponding single
‘T’ nucleotide on the 3’ end of the adapter provides a complementary overhang for ligating the
adapter to the fragment. This strategy ensures a low rate of chimera (concatenated template)
formation.

ALP plate. Set a 200 µl pipette to 35 µl, then gently pipette the entire volume up and
down 10 times to mix thoroughly.
• If using a DAP:
— Place the DAP on the benchtop so that the part number barcode, on the long side of
the plate, is facing you and the clipped corner is on the lower left.
— Do one of the following to pierce the foil seal:
— If using the entire plate at one time, use the bottom of a clean 96-well semiskirted PCR plate to pierce a hole in all of the well seals simultaneously. Gently,
but firmly, press the clean plate over the foil seal.
— If using only part of the plate, use the bottom of a clean eight-tube strip, with
caps attached, to pierce holes in the seals of the wells that will be used for
ligation. Repeat with a new, clean eight-tube strip, with caps attached, for each
row or column of adapters that will be used for ligation.

This process uses PCR to selectively enrich those DNA fragments that have adapter molecules
on both ends and to amplify the amount of DNA in the library. The PCR is performed with a
PCR Primer Cocktail that anneals to the ends of the adapters. Minimize the number of PCR
cycles to avoid skewing the representation of the library.

Illumina recommends performing the following procedures for quality control analysis on your
sample library and quantification of the DNA library templates.
Quantify Libraries
Quantify your libraries using a fluorometric quantification method that uses dsDNA binding
dyes or qPCR.
[Optional] Quality Control
To verify the size of your fragments, check the template size distribution. Run samples on a
Bioanalyzer for qualitative purposes only.
Do one of the following:
• If using a High Sensitivity DNA chip:
— Prepare a 1:100 dilution of the DNA library with water.
— Run 1 µl of the diluted DNA library on an Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer.
• If using a DNA 7500 chip, run 1 µl of undiluted DNA library on an Agilent
Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer.
