The genomic DNA is tagmented by Nextera transposome that produces DNA fragments tagged with adapter sequences. The tagmented DNA is cleaned from the transposome and amplified with PCR that adds the index adapters. The resulting DNA library is then purified to remove short library fragments. Finally, quality control procedures are performed, and DNA library templates are quantified for further processing.
