Methods for Detecting and Quantifying Specific Probiotic Microorganisms in Animal Feed

摘要

Methods and compositions are disclosed for confirming and quantifying the presence of a specific probiotic microorganism in a sample of animal feed. Hybridization and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques are applied to identify the presence of the specific probiotic microorganism in cultures grown in most probable number and serial dilution methods, after calibration of the techniques using blank and control samples.
