Methods in microbiology. Volume 19
This book provides a review of currently employed methods for the classification and identification of microorganisms. It begins by describing classical methods and moves on to discuss the most sophisticated of molecular and phylogenetic approaches, including ribosomal RNA sequencing. CONTENTS: B. Lanyi, classical and rapid identification methods for medically important bacteria; tests appropriate for numerical taxonomy studies; S. Bascomb, enzyme tests in bacterial identification. K. Komagata and K. Suzuki, lipid and cell wall analysis in bacterial systematics, protein profiles; prolysis applied to microbial systematics; labelled antibody methods for detection and identification of microorganisms; identification of microorganisms by rapid DNA/DNA hydbridization; isolation and purification of RNAs suitable for sequence analysis; the application of 16S rRNA cataloguing and 5S rRNA sequencing in bacterial systematics; computer programs for classification and identification and index.
