About this document
16S Ribotyping for Bacterial Identification by Sebna Noushad is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document reviews bacterial identification using 16S ribotyping. It discusses how 16S ribotyping amplifies the intergenic regions between the 16S-23S rRNA genes using PCR, then digests the PCR product with restriction endonucleases. This technique can identify bacteria at the species level with 62-92% accuracy, depending on the bacterial strain and standards used. 16S ribotyping is useful for identifying rare or abnormal bacterial strains, determining appropriate antibiotic treatment, and studying bacte
