Identification of Staphylococcus species by 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer PCR analysis
1 Jul 1998
Abstract excerpt
To investigate whether 16S-23S rDNA (rDNA) spacer region length polymorphisms are suitable for the identification of Staphylococcus strains, the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region lengths of 221 strains belonging to 31 species were studied by using a PCR-based method. Each species presented a specific 16S-23S pattern made of 1-8 fragments ranging from 104-771 bp, with the exception of the species...
