MiSeq System Denature and Dilute Libraries Guide

Overview
This guide explains steps to denature and dilute prepared libraries for sequencing on the Illumina ® MiSeq ®
system.
This guide also includes instructions for preparing a PhiX library for use as a sequencing control.

Loading Volume and Concentration
This procedure denatures and dilutes libraries to a final volume of 600 µl. The recommended loading
concentration varies depending on the version of MiSeq Reagent Kit used for the sequencing run. In practice,
loading concentration can vary depending on library preparation and quantification methods.
Chemistry

Recommended Final Loading Concentration

MiSeq Reagent Kit v3

Supports 6–20 pM loading concentration.
Requires at least a 4 nM library before diluting and denaturing.

MiSeq Reagent Kit v2

Supports 6–10 pM loading concentration.

Protocol Variations
Follow the appropriate denature and dilute protocol depending on the normalization procedure used during
library prep.
u

Standard normalization—Libraries are normalized using standard library quantification and quality control
procedures recommended in the library prep documentation. For these libraries, follow Protocol A. See
Protocol A: Standard Normalization Method on page 4.

u

Bead-based normalization—Libraries are normalized using a bead-based procedure described in the
library prep documentation for methods that support bead-based normalization. For these libraries,
follow Protocol B. See Protocol B: Bead-Based Normalization Method on page 6.

MiSeq System Denature and Dilute Libraries Guide

Best Practices
u

Always prepare freshly diluted NaOH for denaturing libraries for cluster generation. This step is essential
to the denaturation process.

u

To prevent small pipetting errors from affecting the final NaOH concentration, prepare at least 1 ml of
freshly diluted NaOH.

u

For best results, begin thawing the reagent cartridge before denaturing and diluting libraries. For
instructions, see the MiSeq System User Guide (part # 15027617).

About Low Diversity Libraries
Low diversity libraries are libraries where a significant number of the reads have the same sequence. This lack
of variation shifts the base composition because the reads are no longer random.
For example, low diversity can occur with some expression studies with > 25% of one type of transcript, lowplexity amplicon pools, adapter dimer, or bisulfite sequencing. A higher concentration spike-in of PhiX helps
balance the overall lack of sequence diversity.
NOTE
For low diversity libraries, dilute your PhiX control library to the same concentration as your denatured library.

Protocol A: Standard Normalization Method
Use protocol A to denature and dilute libraries that have been normalized using standard library quantification
and quality control procedures recommended in the library prep documentation.
Follow the steps most appropriate for your library and the version of MiSeq Reagent Kit you are using.
Loading concentration can also vary depending on library type and quantification methods.
For the Nextera TM DNA Flex Library Prep Kit, see dilute and denature directions in the Nextera DNA Flex
Library Prep Reference Guide (document # 1000000025416).
For the TruSight ® Cardio Sequencing Kit, see dilute and denature directions in the TruSight Cardio
Sequencing Kit Reference Guide (document # 15063774).
Chemistry

Compatible Denature and Dilute Steps

MiSeq Reagent Kit v3

4 nM library—Results in a 6–20 pM loading concentration.

MiSeq Reagent Kit v2

4 nM library—Results in a 6–20 pM loading concentration.
2 nM library—Results in a 6–10 pM loading concentration.

The denaturation steps described in this guide make sure that the concentration of NaOH is not more than
0.001 (1 mM) in the final solution after diluting with HT1. Higher concentrations of NaOH in the library inhibit
library hybridization to the flow cell and decrease cluster density.

Prepare Reagents

1

Combine the following volumes in a microcentrifuge tube.
u Laboratory-grade water (800 µl)
u Stock 1.0 N NaOH (200 µl)
