PCR amplification and DGGE analysis were performed as previously described (16 (link)). Briefly, the variable V3 region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified using the universal bacterial primers F357-GC and R518 with the sequences of 5′-CCGAATTCGTCGACAACAGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3′ and 5′-CCCGGGATCCAAGCTTACGGCTACCTTGTTACGACTT-3′, respectively. The PCR was performed as previously described. The amplified sequences of 16S rRNA were analyzed via DGGE fingerprinting analysis using 35 to 70% denaturing gel. Each lane uploaded 30 µl of PCR product, and electrophoresis was performed at 70 V for 990 min. Next, the DGGE gels were stained for 30 min with ethidium bromide (50 µg in 500 ml 1 X TAE buffer), and the band profiles were visualized and analyzed with a Quantity One Analysis System (Bio-Rad, California, USA). In short, all fingerprinting profiles were aligned using the reference lanes and then compared. The numeric value of the relative intensity per band class was then exported for all profiles and further analyzed. The Berger-Parker index, which was used to assess species richness, and α diversity measures, including the Shannon and Simpson diversity indices, were calculated based on the band profiles according to previously described method (17 (link)).

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.
