چکیده

The API 50 CH identification system was evaluated for the identification of 97 strains of commensal lactobacilli. This system agreed with the species-level identifications for none of the 7 reference strains and only 4 of 90 vaginal isolates identified using whole-chromosomal DNA probes.

Carbon assimilation profiles as a tool for identification of zygomycetes.

Identification of Zygomycetes is difficult and time-consuming by standard microbiological procedures. Carbon assimilation profiles are commonly used for yeast-and bacterial-species identification but rarely for filamentous-fungus identification. Carbon assimilation profiles were evaluated using the commercialized kits ID32C and API 50 CH, which contain 31 and 49 tests, respectively, to serve as...

The comparison of PCR technique and API-20E kit with the conventional biomedical methods for the identification of Salmonella species in laboratory

Abstract Bachground and objectives: Salmonella is one of the most important agents of gastrointestinal infection and diarrhea in our country. Misdiagnosis of these bacteria leads to cure failure. The aim of this study was to make a comparison between PCR and the API-20E and conventional biochemical tests carried out for the identification of Salmonella. Material and Methods: In this study 470 s...

16S-Amplified Ribosomal DNA Restriction Analysis Assay for Discriminating Potentially Probiotic Lactobacillus Species Isolated from Traditional Dairy Products

Background: Traditional dairy products are the main sources for probiotic bacteria. This study aimed to isolate and characterize the potentially probiotic Lactobacillus strains isolated from traditional dairy products in Iran. Methods: Microbial population of each dairy product was enriched and screened for acid- and bile- resistant strains. The isolates were ...

Molecular Taxonomic Characterisation of Probiotic Strain Lactobacillus Sp. 50p1

In recent years interest in the probiotic lactobacilli has been stimulated by the use of these bacteria in products that are claimed to confer health benefits on the consumer. The probiotic effects are usually strain-specific, meaning that a correct identification is important to link the strain to the specific health effect. Taxonomical characterization of probiotic strains only in phenotypic ...

Molecular identification of agrobacterium tumefaciens containing pCAMBIA 1305.2 plasmid using multiplex PCR and Gold nanoparticles multiplex probe

Conventional microbiology methods used to detect bacteria include multiple cultures and identification processes, so the results of lab work are painstaking and time-consuming. In recent years, more and more tend to use the diagnostic tests which are based on DNA; hence, DNA diagnostic biosensors have been created to perform DNA identification better. In this study, GUS and hpt genes were used ...
