Fluorescent-oligonucleotide probing of whole cells for determinative, phylogenetic, and environmental studies in microbiology

Fluorescent-dye-conjugated oligonucleotides were used to classify 14 Fibrobacter strains by fluorescence microscopy. On the basis of partial 16S rRNA sequences of six Fibrobacter strains, four hybridization probes were designed to discriminate between the species Fibrobacter succinogenes and Fibroba... View More
