2.3 Stopping
the Assay
1. 10% (v/v) DMSO.
2. Foil adhesive plate seals.
3. Aerosol-tight secondary containment for heat-sterilizing assay
plates (see Note 6).
4. Optional: 26 fM spike-in plasmid 1 in water (10Â stock) (see
Note 1 and 7).
5. Optional: 384-well PCR plates to contain aliquots.
2.4 Barcode
Amplification
1. 384-well PCR plates.
2. Reagent reservoirs.
3. Half-skirt 96-well PCR plates.
4. 10μM forward and reverse primers arrayed in 96-well PCR
plates (see Note 8 and Fig. 3).
5. High-fidelity DNA polymerase, e.g., Q5 Hot Start Polymerase
(NEB).
6. 10 mM dNTP mix.
7. Optional: 26 fM spike-in plasmid 2 in water (10Â stock) (see
Note 7; these can be obtained by emailing Deborah Hung
(dhung@broadinstitute.org)).
2.5 Clean-up
1. 1-well reagent reservoir block.
2. SPRI beads for DNA, e.g., Beckmann Agencourt XP.
3. Magnetic microcentrifuge tube rack.
4. 80% (v/v) ethanol, freshly prepared: add 40 mL 100% ethanol
to a 50 mL conical tube and make up to 50 mL with sterile,
molecular biology grade water.
5. Molecular biology grade water.
Fig. 3 Assembly of PCR components for library construction. The heat-inactivated culture is added to a
384-well PCR plate, then four (one per quadrant) unique forward primers are added to each 384-well plate,
followed by 96 unique reverse primers (delivered once to each quadrant). After adding PCR master mix, the
sequencing library is prepared by thermocycling
