10s
Prepare the stLFR_SamBarTIE and TE Buffer. Dilute the stLFR_SamBarTIE 16-fold with TE Buffer. Add Amount6 µL TE Buffer into a new 0.2 mL PCR tube and then transfer Amount2 µL stLFR_SamBarTIE to the tube. Vortex intermittently for 4 times (2s each) to mix. Label it as “4× dilution stLFR_SamBarTIE”.

Add Amount18 µL TE Buffer into a new 0.2 mL PCR tube and transfer Amount6 µL of the 4× dilution stLFR_SamBarTIE into the tube. Vortex intermittently for 4 times (2s each) to mix the tube. Label it as “stLFR_SamBarTIE (Working Mix).” stLFR_SamBarTIE (Working Mix) can be used for 12 reactions.

According to the requirements of the sample sequencing pooling strategy, mix the stLFR_SamBarTIE Working Mix.
Prepare the Transposon Insertion Reaction Mix on ice as shown. Vortex intermittently for 4 times (2s each) to mix.
Transfer Amount13.2 µL Transposon Insertion Reaction Mix to the DNA sample from step 2.1(total volume is Amount50 µL ). Mix by very gently pipetting 10 times using wide-bore tip. Briefly centrifuge the tube. Transfer the tube to the thermocycler and start the Transposon Insertion Reaction Program.

Store the tubes on ice after the transposon insertion step has finished.
Pipette Amount42.5 µL TE buffer to a new 0.2 mL tube then transfer Amount7.5 µL transposon-inserted product (from step 2.6) to this new 0.2 mL tube. Mix by inverting the tube very gently and collect liquid to the bottom of the tube by briefly centrifuging (1 second) on a microcentrifuge. Label this new tube as the sample tube.
