The aim of this study was to identify K-ras mutations as marker for isolated tumor cells in liver, lymph node, and bone marrow specimens of colorectal cancer patients. To detect these, a PCR-RFLP assay was used with a sensitivity exceeding
Virulence comparison of human and poultry campylobacter Jejuni isolates in a mouse model
Newly developed PCR assays were used to PCR-amplify and sequence fragments of the dissimilatory adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (APS) reductase genes (aprBA) comprising nearly the entire gene locus (2.2-2.4 kb, equal to 92-94 % of the protein coding sequence) from 75 sulfate-reducing prokaryotes

The objective of this study was to identify a microbial marker for pig manure contamination. We quantified the persistence of four dominant bacterial groups from the pig intestinal tract throughout manure handling at 10 livestock operations (including aerobic digestion) by
Applied and environmental microbiology, 75(5), 1402-1409 (2009-01-07)
Human fecal matter contains a large number of viruses, and current bacterial indicators used for monitoring water quality do not correlate with the presence of pathogenic viruses. Adenoviruses and enteroviruses have often been used to identify fecal pollution in the
