Repetitive extragenic palindromes

The use of toluene to induce oxygenation of haloalkanes has been discussed in Chapter 7, Part 3, and probes for toluene-2-monooxygenase have been used to evaluate the potential nnmber of TCE-degrading organisms in an aquifer (Fries et al. 1997b). In this study, repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR (REP-PCR) (de Bruijn 1992) of isolates was used to classify their metabolic capability.

Identification of the species and characterization of the dominant strains in static surface acetic acid fermentation were required for the stabilization of fermentation procedures and improvement of the strain. Recent advances of genetic analyses including DNA—DNA hybridization, enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERlC)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP)-PCR, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), and 16S rRNA sequence analysis with PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) methods allow identificatiOTi of species of acetic acid bacteria.
