Group-specific 16S rRNA hybridization probes to describe natural communities of methanogens

TL;DR: Eight oligonucleotides which are complementary to conserved tracts of 16S rRNA from phylogenetically defined groups of methanogens were designed and characterized for use as hybridization probes for studies in environmental and determinative microbiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

The oligonucleotide probe database.

TL;DR: The Oligonucleotide Probe Database (OPD) is designed and modified to include multiple probe versions and also to provide additional identifying information, and a method of standardizing the nomenclature for oligon nucleotide probes and PCR primers that is both unambiguous and informative is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diversity and dynamics of microbial communities in engineered environments and their implications for process stability.

TL;DR: The availability of molecular biological tools for studying microbial communities in bioreactors and other engineered systems has resulted in remarkable insights linking diversity and dynamics to process stability as discussed by the authors, which can be used to elucidate some unresolved ecological issues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbial ecology of drinking water distribution systems.

TL;DR: Control of microbial growth in drinking water distribution systems, often achieved through the addition of disinfectants, is essential to limiting waterborne illness, particularly in immunocompromised subpopulations.
