| Abstract: | The lactocin S structural gene (lasA) in seven bacteriocinogenic lactobacilli isolated from fermented sausages was studied. Two degenerate primers were synthesized to amplify a 75-bp fragment of the gene. Three strains amplified the fragment from their plasmid DNA, and hybridization analysis confirmed these results. |
