Molecular biology techniques used in wastewater treatment: An overview
@article{Sanz2007MolecularBT, title={Molecular biology techniques used in wastewater treatment: An overview}, author={J. Sanz and Thorsten Kochling}, journal={Process Biochemistry}, year={2007}, volume={42}, pages={119-133} }
Identification of microorganisms by conventional methods requires the isolation of pure cultures followed by laborious characterization experiments. These procedures are therefore inadequate for study of the biodiversity of a natural or engineered ecosystem. A new set of molecular techniques developed during the 1990s revolutionized microbial ecology research. Among these techniques, cloning and the creation of a gene library, denaturant gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and fluorescent in… CONTINUE READING
