Staphylococcus pasteuri-specific oligonucleotide probes derived from a random amplified DNA fragment

FEMS Microbiol Lett. 1995 Oct 1;132(1-2):147-52. doi: 10.1111/j.1574-6968.1995.tb07824.x.

Abstract

A rapid polymerase chain reaction method was developed to differentiate Staphylococcus pasteuri from other staphylococcal species, especially the phenotypically similar S. warneri. The oligonucleotide probes used as primers were designed from the sequence of a S. pasteuri random amplified polymorphic DNA fragment.
