Journal ArticleDOI
Development of Bacteroides 16S rRNA Gene TaqMan-Based Real-Time PCR Assays for Estimation of Total, Human, and Bovine Fecal Pollution in Water

TL;DR: In this article, a real-time Bacteroides species (AllBac) detection was performed on human, cattle, and equine feces, and the results showed that the AllBac detection can be used to estimate the total amount of fecal contamination in water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time PCR quantification of nitrifying bacteria in a municipal wastewater treatment plant.
Gerda Harms,Alice C. Layton,Hebe M. Dionisi,Igrid R. Gregory,Victoria Garrett,Shawn A. Hawkins,Kevin G. Robinson,Gary S. Sayler +7 more
TL;DR: Real-time PCR assays using TaqMan or Molecular Beacon probes were developed and optimized for the quantification of total bacteria, the nitrite-oxidizing bacteria Nitrospira, and Nitrosomonas oligotropha-like ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) in mixed liquor suspended solids from a municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) using a single-sludge nitrification process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of competitive dominant ammonia-oxidizing bacterial populations in a full-scale industrial wastewater treatment plant.
Alice C. Layton,Hebe M. Dionisi,H.-W. Kuo,Kevin G. Robinson,Victoria Garrett,Arthur J. Meyers,Arthur J. Meyers,Gary S. Sayler +7 more
TL;DR: Ammonia-oxidizing bacterial populations in an industrial wastewater treatment plant were investigated with amoA and 16S rRNA gene real-time PCR assays and found that RI-27-type ammonia oxidizers increased from below detection to codominance, even though nitrification remained constant.
Development of Bacteroides 16S rRNA Gene TaqMan-Based Real-Time PCR Assays for Estimation of Total, Human, and Bovine Fecal Pollution in Water
Alice C. Layton,Larry D. McKay,Daniel E. Williams,Victoria Garrett,Randall W. Gentry,Gary S. Sayler +5 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that real-time PCR assays without DNA extraction can be used to quantify fecal concentrations and provide preliminary fecal source identification in watersheds.
