SOP-007 DNA extraction from marine sediments

Key Points

The aim is to validate the SOP-007 DNA extraction protocol for marine sediment samples.
Utilized the DNeasy PowerSoil Pro kit for DNA extraction.
Collected samples during specific trawl surveys conducted in 2019.
Applied the four-eyes-principle for sample processing.
Measured the DNA yields and purity photometrically.
Tested downstream performance using COI and 12S rRNA PCR.
Validation confirmed reliable DNA yields and purity.
Successful amplification was achieved in PCR tests with diluted DNA extracts.
Validation experiments documented and stored as e-protocols.

Abstract

Validation was done using SOP-007.01 based on the method of the DNeasy PowerSoil Pro kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Samples used for eDNA extraction were collected during the International and the German Small Scale Bottom Trawl Surveys (IBTS & GSBTS) implemented in research cruise WH428 in 2019. All samples were extracted by each conductor, i.e. A-samples by conductor 1, B-samples by conductor 2, and applying the four-eyes-principle. DNA yields and purity were photometrically measured and downstream performance was additionally tested with COI and 12S rRNA PCR using 1:5 diluted DNA extracts as templates. All validation experiments are deposited as e-protocols (GEN088 - GEN095).
