introduction: cryptosporidium is an apicomplexa parasite that infects humans and a wide range of domestic and wild animals. however, the sub-genotypes of the species infecting animals in iran are unclear. the aim of the present study isto identify dna fingerprinting of bovine cryptosporidium in qazvin province using sequences of gp60 gene.   materials and methods : in this study we investigated...

introduction: recently, the incidence of fungal infections dramatically increased with an appearance of many novel species due to different criteria. therefore, several molecular methods have been established for identification of these agents which cause human and animal disorder based on genomic dna. among these methods, rapd-pcr technique is a powerful discriminative method based on amplifie...

DNA fingerprints led to the identification of closely related plant species and it is one of the tool for assessing genetic diversity and species relationship. DNA is most stable and does not vary seasonally and with age of the plant. DNA based fingerprinting techniques plays greater role in authentication of botanicals. This review gives an outline about the importance of DNA fingerprinting, D...

a reliable dna extraction method for use on extra virgin olive oil based on a commercial kit was defined, and the possibility of using this dna for fingerprinting the original cultivar was demonstrated. the genetic traceability of single-cultivar virgin olive oil from two cultivars (carolea and frantoio) was achieved by identifying the varieties from which they were produced. this involved the ...

background: escherichia coli is a commensal-pathogenic organism, which includes a wide range of strains. despite several advanced molecular-genomic technologies for detecting and identifying different strains of e. coli, enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus polymerase chain reaction (eric-pcr) technique is a quick, sharp and cost effective fingerprint method. the major purpose of the...

DNA fingerprinting of Mycobacterium tuberculosis--a relatively new laboratory technique--offers promise as a powerful aid in the prevention and control of tuberculosis (TB). Established in 1996 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Tuberculosis Genotyping and Surveillance Network was a 5-year prospective, population-based study of DNA fingerprinting conducted fro...

background: populations of magnaporthe, the causal agent of rice blast disease, are pathotypically and genetically diverse and therefore their interaction with different rice cultivars and also antagonistic microorganisms are very complicated. objectives: the objectives of the present study were to characterize phylogenetic relationships of 114 native  magnaporthe strains, isolated from rice an...
