Dennis,
We have tested v3.0 at 1/4 strength for PCR product sequencing (2ul BigDye,
6ul buffer, 7.5ng DNA per 100bp product, 20ul reaction). This works at
least as well as v2.0 at 1/4 strength (as defined by the number of phred20
basecalls) and in some cases a little better. We have not tested it yet at
higher dilutions.

Subject: Big Dye v3.0 Dilutions?
Is anyone running diluted protocols using the Big Dye 3.0 kit? I am doing
small scale PCR based sequencing and have only seen protocols for earlier
versions of diltutions for the Big Dye chemistries. The 1X protocol seems
like a large waste of terminator for the price.
Thank you!
