Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The PCR primers used for real-time PCR quantification of total bacteria, fungi, protozoa, methanogen, Clostridium sticklandii, and Clostridium aminophilum are listed in Supplementary Table S1. Among these microbial groups, C. aminophilum and C. sticklandii are two of the main hyper-ammonia-producing bacteria (HAB) isolated from the rumen contributing to elevated deamination therein (Russell et al., 1988 (link)). Plasmid DNA containing each cloned respective target sequence was obtained by PCR and cloning (Koike et al., 2007 (link)), and the resultant recombinant plasmids were used as the standard DNA in real-time PCR. Real-time PCR was performed on a StepOnePlus platform (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, United States) using SYBR Premix Ex Taq dye (Takara). Quantification of copies of 16S rRNA gene (total bacteria, C. sticklandii and C. aminophilum), 18S rRNA gene (fungi and protozoa), and methyl coenzyme-M reductase gene (mcrA, for methanogens) in each sample was performed in triplicate, and the mean value was calculated. Standard curves were generated using 10-fold serial dilutions of each standard DNA containing the target gene sequences of the respective microbial group. The absolute abundance of each microbial population was expressed as copies of the target gene/mL of culture samples.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
