Determination of the microbial flora in traditional İzmir Tulum cheeses by Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis

Microbial community fingerprinting by differential display-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis.

Complex microbial communities exhibit a large diversity, hampering differentiation by DNA fingerprinting. Herein, differential display-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis is proposed. By adding a nucleotide to the 3' ends of PCR primers, 16 primer pairs and fingerprints were generated per community. Complexity reduction in each partial fingerprint facilitates sample comparison.

Determination of microbial genome sizes by two-dimensional denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis.

In two-dimensional denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, DNA is digested with a restriction endonuclease and the resulting DNA fragments are separated as a function of size by conventional agarose gel electrophoresis. Following this first dimension electrophoresis, the fragment distribution is placed at the top of a denaturing gradient slab gel and electrophoresis is carried out parallel to ...

Microbial Community Fingerprints by Differential Display Denaturing Gradient 1 Gel Electrophoresis ( DD - DGGE )

Study of Bacterial Diversity in Poultry Gut Using Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis

Bacteria play an important role in the initiation and progression of diseases (not only in disease but affect health status of individual). Populations of digestive microflora in chicken gut change with age and also affected by diet, stressors, and performance enhancers as well as in disease conditions. The aim of the pre-sent study was to know bacterial makeup in chicken gut, using denaturing ...

Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis as a fingerprinting method for the analysis of soil microbial communities

In soil microbial ecology, the effects of environmental factors and their gradients, temporal changes or the response to specific experimental treatments of microbial communities can only be effectively analyzed using methods that address the structural differences among whole communities. Fingerprinting methods are the most appropriate technique for this task when multiple samples must be anal...
