Abstract: | A rapid method to evaluate the (G+C)-content of bacterial DNA is described. About 2 × 108 cells are lysed by the combined action of detergents and enzymes and put into a CsCl-gradient without any purification. Up to five samples may be run at once. The high background absorption of cell-derived material other than DNA is overcome by novel collimating optics. |
