  - Ran sonicator for 2.5 minutes at 25% amplitude, 15 seconds on 15 seconds off. Samples were spun down after 1.25 minutes (general sonicator protocol)
 
  - 1X bead clean after sonication, followed protocol
 
  - Samples were re-suspended in 62.5ul 10mM tris HCl, this is 5*12.5, which is the input volume to the kit. I was then able to take 12.5ul from each sonicated sample and that should be ~100ng
 
End Repair and A-tailing
  - Prepared end repair and a-tailing master mix on ice:
    
      - ERAT buffer 1.75μl * 33 = 57.75μl
 
      - ERAT enzyme 0.75μl * 33 = 24.74μl
 
    
   
  - Made 31 PCR strip tubes each with 12.5μl of 100ng sheared DNA
 
  - Added 2.5μl of ERAT master mix to each sample
 
  - Vortexed and spun down
 
  - Placed samples in thermocyler A-tailing program in JONP login (~ 1 hour)
 
Adapter Ligation
  - Prepared ligation master mix on ice (no vortexing of the ligase):
    
      - ligation buffer 7.5μl * 34 = 255μl
 
      - DNA ligase 2.5μl * 34 = 85μl
 
      - nuclease free water 1.25μl * 34 = 42.5μl
 
    
   
  - Added 11.25ul ligation master mix to each sample.
 
  - Added 1.25ul of planned adapter to each sample (see below). Adapters were added last to minimize adapter-adapter ligation
