Abstract excerpt
Aerobic, endospore-forming bacteria that are attributed to the genus Bacillus or related genera constitute a hazard to the quality of gelatin. During repetitive extragenic palindromic DNA (rep)-PCR screening of gelatin isolates, a group of five isolates (group 1) and a group of 66 isolates (group 2) that did not match any pattern in our database were found. On the basis of 16S rDNA sequence analysis,...
