Abstract excerpt
DNA sequences from the intergenic spacer (IGS) region of the ribosomal operon were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique using two primers derived from 16S and 23S rRNA conserved sequences. The PCR products, cleaved by 4 base cutting restriction enzymes, were used to differentiate Nitrobacter strains. This method offered a convenient alternative to serological testing for characterization of...
