A rapid microscale technique for isolation of recombinant plasmid DNA suitable for restriction enzyme analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A simple and rapid microscale technique is described for the isolation of plasmid DNA which involves cell lysis with phenol, centrifugation, phenol extraction, ethanol precipitation, and RNase digestion. The plasmid DNA is of suitable purity and quantity for multiple restriction endonuclease digestions and bacterial transformations. This “miniprep” procedure is applicable for a variety of types of plasmids ranging in size from 2900 to 18,400 base pairs (bp) and for a number of Escherichia coli strains. The plasmids are rapidly cleaved by all restriction enzymes (total of 14) tested to date. Recombinant clones have been screened for insertions as small as 10 bp and as large as 5000 bp. The procedure takes ~3 h and has been routinely used to simultaneously analyze 24 candidate clones. This procedure is reliable and useful for rapid screening of recombinant DNA candidates where analysis by restriction endonuclease digestion is necessary. 相似文献

A novel method for rapid isolation of plasmid DNA 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A new disposable chromatographic column, pZ523, has been developed for separating plasmid DNA from bacterial chromosomal DNA. Use of pZ523 spun columns eliminates the need for ethidium bromide-cesium chloride density gradients which require long centrifugation times. pZ523 purified plasmids have been shown to be of purity suitable for restriction analysis, ligation, transfection of mammalian cells and transformation of bacteria. Unlike the traditional ultracentrifugation method, pZ523 offers an extremely rapid alternative method for purifying large amounts of plasmid DNA (2.5 mg to 4.5 mg) from cleared bacterial lysates in only 25 minutes. 相似文献

Evaluation of a selective enrichment technique for the isolation of Campylobacter pylori 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Donna R. Morgan J.J. Mathewson Ray Freedman William G. Kraft 《FEMS microbiology letters》1990,66(1-3):303-306
To cultivate Campylobacter pylori from contaminated biopsy specimens, Brucella broth was supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum, 1% Vitox, 1000 units/ml polymyxin B sulfate, 10 micrograms/ml vancomycin, and 2 micrograms/ml amphotericin B. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Enterococcus fecalis were cocultivated with C. pylori. All four strains of C. pylori were recoverable at 24 h. When 21 C. pylori strains were studied in pure culture, 86% grew in the selective enrichment medium. In a clinical study, the selective enrichment technique resulted in isolation of C. pylori from 50% of patient samples, compared with isolation from only 36% of samples with agar cultivation. The selective enrichment technique may be more sensitive than techniques currently employed to isolate C. pylori from gastric tissue. 相似文献

Fifteen strains of cyanobacteria, mainly Nostoc and Anabaena species, were screened for plasmids using five rapid procedures. Two of these methods, based on alkaline extraction and phenol extraction of cleared lysates respectively, were successful with a total of ten species, the latter method proving more sensitive. Plasmids ranging from less than 2.6 to at least 30 mD were isolated; most of the strains examined possessed one or two plasmids, while five lacked detectable plasmid DNA. 相似文献

A rapid procedure for the large-scale isolation of plasmid DNA is described. The method utilizes cetyltrimethylammonium bromide to precipitate the plasmid following extraction of DNA by lysozyme digestion and boiling. The plasmid is then purified by passing through the spin column pZ523. The purity and yield of the plasmid obtained with this method is similar to that isolated by cesium chloride-ethidium bromide gradient centrifugation. The method does not involve any phenol-chloroform extractions and takes five to six hours for completion after growth of the bacterial cells. The plasmid obtained is amenable to digestion with various restriction endonucleases, can be used for cloning with high efficiency and is also suitable as template for dideoxy sequencing. 相似文献

Rapid detection systems for Salmonella in foodstuffs are currently being developed. However, existing standards still call for application of traditional methods employing pre-enrichment followed by selective enrichment and isolation. The efficacy of various methods was tested using 264 chicken and lamb organ meats. Pre-enrichment was carried out in Tryptone Soy Broth (TSB) and enrichment in Tetrathionate Brilliant Green Broth (TTB) at 37°C, Selenite Broth with Brilliant Green and Sulphapyridine at 37°C and 43°C, and Rappaport-Vassiliadis Broth (RV 10) at 42°C. The isolation media were Brilliant Green Agar (BGA), Deoxycholate Citrate Agar, Hektoen Enteric Agar (HEA) and Salmonella-Shigella Agar.
Enrichment in RV/42°C followed by isolation on BGA as recommended by ISO standard no. 6579 and enrichment in TTB/37°C followed by isolation in HEA, no longer recommended by that standard, produced the best results. Low percentages of positive samples and difficulties in detecting Salmonella are the result of interference by competing organisms (Enterobacteriaceae) and the number of salmonellas present after enrichment.
A total of 528 samples (TSB, eggs, lamb liver and chicken liver) were inoculated with Salm. enteritidis, Salm. kapemba and Salm. virchow , and the preceding experiment was repeated. All the TSB and egg samples tested positive, but the percentage of positive samples from the lamb and chicken liver was only 81–92%. Recovery of the salmonellas did not depend upon the method employed or the serotype inoculated but instead on interference by competing flora and the numbers of Salmonella present in the samples. 相似文献

AIMS: To compare PCR combined with enrichment media with the standard microbiological techniques (SMT) and to determine the most sensitive method for the detection of Salmonella and the identification of Salm. typhimurium (ST), Salm. enteritidis (SE), Salm. gallinarum (SG) and Salm. pullorum (SP). METHODS AND RESULTS: We analysed 87 samples from poultry using PCR and SMT, PCR being performed from non-selective (NS) and Rappaport-Vassiliadis (RV) media. PCR-NS was less sensitive than PCR-RV and SMT for the detection and identification of Salmonella. PCR-RV detected more positive samples of Salmonella sp. than SMT but both these methods showed similar sensitivity regarding the identification of Salmonella serovars. CONCLUSIONS: PCR-RV was more sensitive and decreased the time necessary to detect and identify Salmonella. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: PCR-RV is a powerful tool for the rapid and accurate detection and identification of Salmonella and can be implemented in diagnostic and food analysis laboratories. 相似文献

A procedure for the isolation and purification of plasmid DNA from Rhizobium meliloti 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A procedure is described for the isolation and purification of the DNA of plasmids that are indigenous to the agriculturally important nitrogen-fixing bacterium Rhizobium meliloti. The procedure involves the lysis of bacteria with an ionic detergent or a mixture of ionic and nonionic detergents, the extraction of total DNA from precipitated membrane-DNA complexes, the enrichment of supercoiled plasmid DNA by the selective alkaline denaturation of chromosomal DNA, and a further purification of plasmid DNA using cesium chloridepropidium diiodide gradients. This procedure yields pure plasmid DNA in amounts of 30 to 50 μg per liter of a culture of cell density of approximately one A550 unit. The DNA thus obtained has been found to be of sufficient purity to serve as substrate for the most commonly used restriction endonucleases. 相似文献

Plasmid DNA minipreps are fundamental techniques in molecular biology. Current plasmid DNA minipreps use alkali and the anionic detergent SDS in a three-solution format. In addition, alkali minipreps usually require additional column-based purification steps and cannot isolate other extra-chromosomal elements, such as bacteriophages. Non-ionic detergents (NIDs) have been used occasionally as components of multiple-solution plasmid DNA minipreps, but a one-step approach has not been developed. Here, we have established a one-tube, one-solution NID plasmid DNA miniprep, and we show that this approach also isolates bacteriophage lambda particles. NID minipreps are more time-efficient than alkali minipreps, and NID plasmid DNA performs better than alkali DNA in many downstream applications. In fact, NID crude lysate DNA is sufficiently pure to be used in digestion and sequencing reactions. Microscopic analysis showed that the NID procedure fragments E. coli cells into small protoplast-like components, which may, at least in part, explain the effectiveness of this approach. This work demonstrates that one-step NID minipreps are a robust method to generate high quality plasmid DNA, and NID approaches can also isolate bacteriophage lambda particles, outperforming current standard alkali-based minipreps. 相似文献

The INSTA-MINI-PREP method, a rapid protocol for plasmid DNA extraction, was originally developed to prepare plasmid DNA from 1 to 3 ml miniprep Escherichia coli cultures. Direct extraction of plasmid DNA is achieved by a two-phase solution which is separated by centrifugation in the presence of the INSTA-PREP gel barrier material. This method has been successfully tested on various environmental Salmonella strains, although it was not suitable for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and enterococci strains. The INSTA-MINI-PREP method is a new alternative procedure to screen plasmid contents of Salmonella and E. coli strains rapidly and easily. 相似文献

We have developed a rapid, microplate-format plasmid isolation procedure to purify sequencing-grade DNA templates for high-throughput DNA sequencing operations. A modified lysozyme/boiling method is used to produce a plasmid-containing supernatant that is then purified by iron bead capture. After binding, the beads are pelleted in a magnetic field, washed and the DNA eluted in water. The method yields up to 10 micrograms plasmid DNA from a 1-mL overnight culture in a deep-well microplate. The procedure is suitable for large-scale experiments, amenable to automation and does not require expensive reagents or equipment. The entire protocol can be completed in as little as 2 h, and one technician with a 96-well pipetting station can process up to 48 plates per day. This protocol is ideal for any high-throughput operation in which template quantity, quality and reproducibility are of primary importance. 相似文献
