4 Fish DNA Barcoding Quick Guide

15. Remove the spin column from the 2 ml

microcentrifuge tube, discard the flowthrough
at the bottom of the 2 ml tube, and replace
the spin column in the same tube. Centrifuge
columns for a full 2 min to remove residual
traces of ethanol and dry out the matrix.

16. Label two clean 2 ml capless microcentrifuge

tubes with your fish sample name and your
initials.

17. When your 2 min spin is completed, remove

the spin columns and discard the 2 ml
microcentrifuge wash tubes.

18. Place the spin column for each sample into a

new capless 2 ml microcentrifuge tube from
step 16.

19. Using a fresh pipet tip for each sample, add

100 µl of distilled water to each spin column,
being careful not to touch the resin. Elute the
DNA by centrifuging for 1 min at full speed.

20. Label two clean 2 ml microcentrifuge tubes (with

caps) Fish 1 and Fish 2 and your initials.


21. Transfer the eluted DNA into the appropriately

labeled 2 ml microcentrifuge tube with caps
and store the DNA at 4°C until you are ready to
proceed.
