Every base matters: assessing small subunit <scp>rRNA</scp> primers for marine microbiomes with mock communities, time series and global field samples

Alma E. Parada, David M. Needham, Jed A. Fuhrman · 14 Aug 2015

Microbial community analysis via high-throughput sequencing of amplified 16S rRNA genes is an essential microbiology tool. We found the popular primer pair 515F (515F-C) and 806R greatly underestimated (e.g. SAR11) or overestimated (e.g. Gammaproteobacteria) common marine taxa. We evaluated marine samples and mock communities (containing 11 or 27 marine 16S clones), showing alternative primers 515F-Y…

Formation of propionate and butyrate by the human colonic microbiota

Petra Louis, Harry J. Flint · 5 Nov 2016

The human gut microbiota ferments dietary non-digestible carbohydrates into short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). These microbial products are utilized by the host and propionate and butyrate in particular exert a range of health-promoting functions. Here an overview of the metabolic pathways utilized by gut microbes to produce these two SCFA from dietary carbohydrates and from amino…

Heavy use of prophylactic antibiotics in aquaculture: a growing problem for human and animal health and for the environment

Felipe C. Cabello · 24 May 2006

The accelerated growth of finfish aquaculture has resulted in a series of developments detrimental to the environment and human health. The latter is illustrated by the widespread and unrestricted use of prophylactic antibiotics in this industry, especially in developing countries, to forestall bacterial infections resulting from sanitary shortcomings in fish rearing. The use of a…

Quantifying the roles of immigration and chance in shaping prokaryote community structure

William T. Sloan, Mary Lunn, Stephen Woodcock et al. · 8 Dec 2005

Naturally occurring populations of bacteria and archaea are vital to life on the earth and are of enormous practical significance in medicine, engineering and agriculture. However, the rules governing the formation of such communities are still poorly understood, and there is a need for a usable mathematical description of this process. Typically, microbial community structure…

A fluorimetric method for the estimation of G <b>+</b> C mol% content in microorganisms by thermal denaturation temperature

Juan Miguel González Grau, Cesáreo Sáiz‐Jiménez · 1 Nov 2002

G+C mol% content in microorganisms is one of the recommended characteristics for the standard description of bacterial species. In this study we present a novel fluorimetric method to estimate the G+C mol% content in microorganisms. Double-stranded DNA was specifically stained with SYBR Green I, and its thermal denaturalization was followed by measuring a decrease in…
