- Updated overview of the protocol section within the introduction summary to a table format for library preparation steps.
- Increased the timing for priming and loading the flow cell from 5 min to 10 min in Library preparation Table.
- Added P2i as a compatible device in 'Compatibility of this protocol'.
- Updated information for new kit format with increased Short Fragment Buffer (SFB) volume.
- Updated wash steps in the native barcode ligation section of the protocol to use SFB instead of 80% Ethanol.
- In section 6, 'Priming and loading the MinION and GridION Flow Cell', an important note was added to the bottom of the section stating that when a flow cell is inserted into the MinION Mk1D and the lid is closed, there will be a small gap around the sides of the device.
