PCR-based 16S rDNA Technique for Bacterial Detection in the Zhenjiang Municipal Sewage

摘要

A 16S ribosomal DNA clone library from Zhenjiang municipal sewage was established by PCR using suitable primers. The total of 100 clones were selected by plasmid extraction and PCR identification. 28 clones were obtained and sequenced. From the DNA databases all sequences had > 94 % similarity to reference sequences of the closest related organisms. The sequences analysis indicated that these were identified as Arcobacter sp., Fusobacterium necrophorum, anaerobic bacterium and Clostridium sp. In the municipal sewage. And Arcobacter sp. Predominates in the study, constituting 89.2% of the 28 clones. The results also showed that these bacteria were almost pathogenic organisms. Use of this molecular method establishes the rapid detection of bacterial different from those isolated and identified by traditional cultures. The bacteria detection in Zhenjiang municipal sewage provides reference for the deep study of pathogenic organisms and the assessment of sewage discharge security.
