Characterization of bacteria in mixed biofilm communities using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE).

Current protocols in microbiology - 1 Feb 2007

Welsh Allana K, McLean Robert J C

Abstract excerpt

Most microorganisms in nature, including those within biofilms, live in mixed populations. PCR-based molecular genetic techniques are very useful in studying microbial diversity since unculturable as well as culturable organisms can be investigated. One such technique is denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), which separates PCR-amplified community 16S rRNA (and other gene) sequences on the basis of G+C...
