Figure 7. Highly reproducible final library size distribution is achieved with KAPA Pure Beads. All libraries were prepared with the KAPA HyperPrep Kit, from 1 μg high-quality E. coli genomic DNA, fragmented with a Covaris E220 Focused Ultrasonicator using conditions optimized for mode fragment lengths of 350 – 450 bp. Size selection (0.6X – 0.8X) using either KAPA Pure Beads (Figure 7-green) or Agencourt AMPure XP (Figure 8-blue) was performed after library amplification (2 cycles). Electropherograms were generated with a PerkinElmer LabChip GX DNA High Sensitivity Assay.

Figure 9: Adjustable size selection at various points in library preparation. Equivalent final library size is achieved by performing size selection either immediately after genomic DNA fragmentation or after adapter-ligation (Figure 9). Various final library sizes are achieved by tuning size selection parameters after adapter-ligation (Figure 10). All libraries were prepared with the KAPA HyperPrep Kit, from 100 ng high-quality human genomic DNA, fragmented with a Covaris E220 Focused Ultrasonicator using conditions optimized for mode fragment lengths of 350 – 450 bp. Electropherograms were generated with an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer High Sensitivity DNA Kit.
