Individual Transposition – Nuclei Input Calculator

Targeted Nuclei Recovery from Individual Transposition followed by GEM Generation: 500-20,000

Determine Nuclei Stock and Diluted Nuclei Buffer* volumes (total 15 μl) for the Transposition Mix using this guidance:

  • Based on the starting Nuclei Stock Concentration, locate the corresponding row in the table. Identify the cell with pre-calculated volumes that align with the Targeted Nuclei Recovery. These values already account for a Recovery Efficiency Factor of 1.41 from GEM Generation.

  • For concentrations not listed in the table, use the formula provided after the tables to calculate custom volumes.

Higher nuclei concentrations result in smaller pipetting volumes, which may increase variability.

*Use ONLY Diluted Nuclei Buffer (Dilute 20X Nuclei Buffer (PN-2000207) 1:20 in nuclease-free water) as specified in the previous page.

Individual Transposition — Formula for Nuclei Stock & Diluted Nuclei Buffer volumes

       

Nuclei Stock Volume (μl)

= Targeted Nuclei Recov. (GEM Gen.) x 1.41 (Recovery Efficiency Factor-GEM Gen.)    
  Nuclei Stock Concentration (nuclei/μl)    
Diluted Nuclei Buffer Vol. (μl) = 15 μl - Nuclei Stock Volume μl    

 

Example Calculation

Nuclei Stock Volume (μl)

= 20000 X 1.41 = 3.5 μl  
  8000    
Diluted Nuclei Buffer Vol. (μl) = 15 μl - 3.5 μl = 11.5 μl
