Identification of Bifidobacterium species using rep-PCR fingerprinting.

Systematic and applied microbiology - 1 Nov 2003

Abstract excerpt

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the use of repetitive DNA element PCR fingerprinting (rep-PCR) for the taxonomic discrimination among the currently described species within the genus Bifidobacterium. After evaluating several primer sets targeting the repetitive DNA elements BOX, ERIC, (GTG)s and REP, the BOXA1R primer was found to be the most optimal choice for the establishment of a taxonomical...
