Analysis of Bacteroidales 16S rRNA gene sequences from a geographically isolated human population

Creator:

Petersen, Carolyn A.

Abstract:

Standard methods of measuring fecal pollution in water do not distinguish between human and non-human sources. Molecular technology enabled the development of host-specific markers that distinguish fecal sources. Human specific PCR primers, HF183F and HF134F, were designed based on phylogenetic analyses of partial 16S rRNA gene sequences from the Bacteroidales...
