PEG precipitation
- Goal: to get cleaner purification of oligos away from nanostructures and to increase the volume of purified nanostructures we have for protection assays.
- Nanostructures:
- using 30mM MgCl2, 1x oligos (seems to work best given previous results).
- designs: c5.0.A, c5.0.C, c5.0.D key
- PEG: 8%, 10%. Total volume in each is 100 μL
- 8 % Cocktail:
40 μL 20% PEG 10 μL 5M NaCl 10 μL water 40 μL Nanostructures (add last)
- 10 % Cocktail:
50 μL 20% PEG 10 μL 5M NaCl 40 μL Nanostructures (add last)
- incubate on ice for 15 min.
- spin at 16 k rcf at 4[[:Category:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] for 10 min.
- carefully pipette off supernatant
- resuspended "pellet" in 50 μL of water
- note: add PEG first, nanostructures last; mix using tapping after everything added. let sit for ~5 min. before putting it on ice
