Identification of capsule-forming Bacillus anthracis spores with the PCR and a novel dual-probe hybridization format.

abstract：:DNA microarray analyses revealed that clusters of repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR-related Escherichia coli isolates were isogenic only within interstitial Lake Huron beach water samples and not in surrounding waters. This suggested that adaptation and growth occurred within the interstitial water sites tested. A...
