Abstract

V originále

Repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) fingerprinting using the (GTG)5 primer was applied for fast screening of bacterial strains isolated from dental plaque of early childhood caries (ECC)-affected children. A group of 29 Gram-positive bacteria was separated into a homogeneous cluster together with Streptococcus mutans reference strains and constituted an aberrant branch after the numerical analysis of (GTG)5-PCR fingerprints. Automated ribotyping with EcoRI restriction enzyme (RiboPrinter microbial characterization system) revealed high genetic heterogeneity among the tested group and proved to be a good tool for strain-typing purposes. Further characterization of the studied strains was achieved by extensive phenotyping and whole-cell protein fingerprinting and confirmed all the strains as S. mutans representatives. Obtained results showed rep-PCR fingerprinting with the (GTG)5 primer to be a fast and reliable method for identification of S. mutans.

In Czech

Metoda rep-PCR s primerem (GTG)5 byla použita pro analýzu bakterií izolovaných ze zubního kazu dětí. Tyto kmeny byly dále analyzovány automatickou ribotypizací (RiboPrinter) a analýzou celkových buněčných proteinů. Na základě získaných výsledků se (GTG)5-PCR ukázala jako vhodná pro identifikaci druhu Streptococcus mutans.
