Technicalities and Glitches of Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP). [PDF]
Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) is a rapid, robust, inexpensive and simple tool for microbial community profiling. Methods used for DNA extraction, PCR amplification and digestion of amplified products have a considerable impact on the results of T-RFLP.

Improved dsrA-based terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of sulfate-reducing bacteria. [PDF]
ABSTRACT To better describe the community structure of sulfate-reducing bacteria in environmental systems, we compared several dissimilatory sulfite reductase ( dsr ) primer sets for terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism application.

Evaluation of terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis in contrasting marine environments [PDF]
Terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis is widely used in microbial ecology studies. In the present study, T-RFLP analysis of PCR products digested by five restriction enzymes (AluI, HaeIII, MspI, Sau3AI and TaqI) was applied for 20 samples from three contrasting coastal environments to assess the biases associated with the ...

Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Data Analysis for Quantitative Comparison of Microbial Communities [PDF]
ABSTRACT Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) is a culture-independent method of obtaining a genetic fingerprint of the composition of a microbial community. Comparisons of the utility of different methods of (i) including peaks, (ii) computing the difference (or distance) between profiles, and (iii) performing ...

The first decade of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) in microbial ecology
Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) was introduced to environmental microbiology only a decade ago but it soon became a molecular tool of choice, due to its high throughput and phylogenetic resolution.

REPK: an analytical web server to select restriction endonucleases for terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. [PDF]
Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis is a widespread technique for rapidly fingerprinting microbial communities. Users of T-RFLP frequently overlook the resolving power of well-chosen restriction endonucleases and often fail to report how they chose their enzymes.

Comparison of gut microbiota composition between laboratory‐bred marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) with chronic diarrhea and healthy animals using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis [PDF]
Chronic diarrhea in laboratory‐bred marmosets poses a serious health problem during experiments. Despite a growing demand for laboratory‐bred experimental marmosets, the mechanisms underlying the development of diarrhea and measures for its treatment and
