Rapid and correct identification of intestinal Bacteroides spp. with chromosomal DNA probes by whole-cell dot blot hybridization.
A dot blot hybridization procedure with 32P-labeled whole chromosomal DNA of the type strains as probes was developed as a rapid and simple method for identification of intestinal Bacteroides species. Bacterial cells were fixed onto membrane filters by slight suction, treated with 0.5 N NaOH, and hybridized with these probes. Of 65 Bacteroides strains isolated from 19 human fecal specimens, whi...
متن کاملFluorescent whole-cell hybridization with 16S rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes to identify Brucella spp. by flow cytometry.
A whole-cell hybridization assay with fluorescent oligonucleotide probes derived from the 16S rRNA sequence of Brucella abortus in combination with flow cytometry has been developed. With the three fluorescent probes selected, a positive signal was observed with all the representative strains of the species and biovars of Brucella and with a total of nine different Brucella clinical isolates. U...
متن کاملDetection of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli by dot blot hybridization with biotinylated DNA probes.
A dot blot hybridization test was developed for the detection of enterotoxigenic E. coli without the use of radioisotopes. Three biotin-labeled DNA (Bio-DNA) probes corresponding to structural genes specifying heat-labile and heat-stable enterotoxins of porcine and human origin were prepared by random priming; label incorporation was significantly higher than that obtained from the use of nick ...
متن کاملOligonucleotide probes for specific detection of Giardia lamblia cysts by fluorescent in situ hybridization.
AIMS Our study focused on the design of oligonucleotide probes and a suitable hybridization protocol that would allow rapid and specific identification of potentially viable cysts of the waterborne parasite Giardia lamblia. METHODS AND RESULTS Comparative analysis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences of Giardia lamblia and a number of closely and more distantly related species identified six reg...
متن کاملDirect identification of sickle cell anemia by blot hybridization.
Several reports have been published on the use of polymorphisms found in the human hemoglobin genes as a means for prenatal diagnosis of sickle cell anemia. The disadvantages of this approach reside in its limited application and the need for family analysis. Here we report that, by use of restriction endonuclease Dde I and diazobenzyloxymethyl-paper transfer procedures, a direct analysis can b...
