Abstract excerpt
A novel version of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) termed degenerate oligonucleotide-primed PCR (DOP-PCR) was used to fingerprint the bacterial genome of Yersinia enterocolitica species. Eight well-characterized reference strains of Y. enterocolitica (ribotype, serotype, biotype and zymotype) were examined. Optimal experimental conditions for reproducibility, sensitivity and specificity were obtained using a...
