For which application do I need the Set of Eubacterial Sequencing Primers?

Set of Eubacterial Sequencing Primers

SeqGP16 & SeqGN16

1. The two primers are used in conjunction with Mastermix 16S Complete.
   
2. Both primers bind to conserved sites within the 16S rRNA gene region amplified in the assays.
   
3. Primer SeqGP16 is group-specific including, among others, Gram-positive Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus, Enterococcus, Listeria, Micrococcus, Bacillus, and Lactococcus species.
   
4. Primer SeqGN16 includes Gram-negative Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Serratia, Enterobacter, Escherichia, Proteus, Klebsiella, Stenotrophomonas, and Legionella species. Using both sequencing primers, mixed infections by bacteria in the two different groups can be analyzed.

  Amplification of Borreliella (Borrelia) with Molzym PCR primers (incl. in MA Bac and Mastermix 16S Complete) should work successfully to produce a 16S amplicon (i.e. positive/negative PCR). However, due to mismatches with our sequencing primers ...

• How many sequencing reactions are needed per sample?

  Sequencing For every sample with a positive 16S PCR, there are two sequencing reactions based on two sequencing primers, SeqGN16 and SeqGP16. This allows the identification of up to two pathogens, mainly separated into Gram-negative and Gram-positive ...

• Why is broad-range 16S rDNA PCR a good option for the detection of bacteria?

  Broad-range 16S rDNA PCR is a favorable way of detecting bacteria in samples due to two reasons. First, the use of highly conserved regions in the 16S rRNA gene allows the amplification of sequences from any bacterial strain. Mastermix 16S Complete ...
