Abstract:J.L. BROOKS, A.S. MOORE, R.A. PATCHETT, M. D. COLLINS AND R.G. KROLL. 1992. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used selectively to amplify specific rDNA sequences of Carnobacterium divergens, C. mobile, C. piscicola and C. gallinarum in purified DNA extracts, crude cell lysates and food samples. The PCR products were visualized by agarose gel electrophoresis and identified, at species level, by hybridization reactions with three specific oligonucleotide probes for C. divergens, C. mobile and C. piscicola/C. gallinarum designed from 16S rRNA sequence data. The PCR was sufficiently sensitive to amplify DNA from a single bacterium to detectable levels after 30 cycles of amplification. Both radioactive (32P) and non-radioactive alkaline phosphatase labelled probes was able to detect the PCR products. Detection was highly specific and the probes did not hybridize with DNA samples from any other of the bacterial species tested. These methods enabled the rapid and specific detection and identification of carnobacteria from pure cultures and samples of meat.
