Synthesis Scale
The synthesis scale refers to the nominal quantity (in moles) of the first (3’) nucleotide and not the final yield of the full length oligonucleotide. It is only approximate and some variation is to be expected. The delivered quantity will depend on the sequence length and purity. Minimum yields for a 20 base oligo are:
