Application of molecular methods to identify lactic acid bacteria
Keywords:
RAPD-PCR analysis, primers, lactic acid bacteria, fingerprints.Abstract
DNA polymorphisms of isolates of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were analyzed by RAPD - PCR. Primer derived from the intergenic spacer region (T3B) and microsatellite primer (GTG)5 were used as a single arbitrary primer. Laws of formation of characteristic bands in agarose gel after electrophoresis (fingerprints) give reasons for their use in the identification of the LAB. Comparison of species specific RAPD-PCR fingerprints belonging to the LAB isolates from food, with fingerprints of reference strains will allow for identification the microorganisms at species level, even if they are not revealed by standard biochemical methods. RAPD-PCR analysis is good for molecular typing of LAB in thelaboratories with relatively limited technical equipment.Downloads
