Real-time fluorogenic reverse transcription-PCR assays for detection of bacteriophage MS2
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted on the detection of bacteriophage MS2 using real-time flourogenic reverse transcription-PCR assays, for studying environmental transport and fate of pathogenic viruses in groundwater. Assays for nonpathogenic microorganisms such as those described in the study provide a safer, cost-effective means of testing such equipment in advance of validation with live pathogens.

Phylogenetic characterization of 16S rRNA gene clones from deep-groundwater microorganisms that pass through 0.2-micrometer-pore-size filters
Article Abstract:
A total of 247 clones of 16S rRNA genes from microorganisms captured by 0.2-and 0.1-Mu m-pore-size filters from sedimentary and granite rock aquifers were amplified and yielded 37 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). OTUs capture by 0.2-Mu m-pore-size filters were largely affiliated with Betaproteobacteria.

Transcriptional organization of genes for protocatechuate and quinate degradation from Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1
Article Abstract:
The data suggesting the existence of a large 14-kb primary transcript covering the pca and qui genes is reported. The respective genes are part of the chromosomal dca-pca-qui-pob-hca cluster encoding these pathways.
