The seven kinds of seafood samples were purchased from the distributors of commercially available brands in Korea. These foods were made of the following raw materials: tiny shrimp (designated J1), ...
Deep-sequencing technologies are becoming nearly routine to describe microbial community composition in environmental samples. The 18S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) pyrosequencing has revealed a vast diversity ...
Pyrosequencing can be used to detect DNA and RNA from almost any source, and has applications in bacteria resistance screening, drug development, epigenetics, and many other fields. If no light is ...
The feasibility of implementing pyrosequencing chemistry within droplets using electrowetting-based digital microfluidics is reported. An array of electrodes patterned on a printed-circuit board was ...
DNA methylation is a form of epigenetics in which gene expression is encouraged or inhibited by the addition of a methyl group on cytosines. It is highly implicated in development, cell ...
Department of Biology, University of Massachusetts Boston, Boston, MA, USA Cores in each plot were collected from the rooting zone of pure or nearly pure stands of the tall ecotype of Spartina ...
Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...
Dental caries, or tooth decay, is the dissolution of tooth structure by acids formed by bacteria as a result of the fermentation of dietary carbohydrate, particularly sucrose. Streptococcus mutans was ...

We aimed to assess the advantage and disadvantage of next-generation pyrosequencing and traditional Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) in fingerprinting analysis of soil microbial ...
Pyrosequencing has been widely used in single nucleotide polymorphism detection and DNA methylation analysis (16, 17). More recently, this method was used in picoliter-sized reactors to produce the ...
Understanding the role of microbes in the oceans has focused on taxa that occur in high abundance; yet most of the marine microbial diversity is largely determined by a long tail of low-abundance taxa ...
