This is a simplified service of bacteria identification based on top 500bp sequence of 16S rDNA from bacteria sample using "MicroSeq® Kit" by Applied Biosystems.
* As for full length analysis of 16S rDNA or fungus (mold, yeast) identification, please ask separately.

Product Description
Product Description
  DNA will be extracted from provided bacteria sample, then 16S rDNA Top500 region will be amplified by PCR. The obtained PCR product will be sequenced by direct sequence method and confirmed its identification with 16S rDNA sequences of known microorganisms by BLAST search on database. The list of microorganisms that are deduced as related species will be reported.

  Basic Content

  - DNA Extraction from bacteria
  - Gene amplification of 16S rDNA Top500bp region
  - Sequencing analysis (double strands)
  - BLAST search on base sequence database
  - Result report

Reagents: DNA extraction: PrepMan(TM) Ultra Sample Preparation Reagent
PCR amplification: MicroSeq® 500 16S rDNA PCR Kit
Sequencing: MicroSeq® 500 16S rDNA Sequencing Kit

How to order
How to order
  Please inquire.

Please provide:
 
Sample Cultured sample in slant, petri dish or other.*1
Extracted DNA which is purified enough for PCR.*2

*1 We do not isolate samples. Please send the purely cultured strain.
*2 We do not accept microorganisms, which do or may possess pathogenicity. In that case,
   please submit the sample in the form of extracted DNA.

* The provided samples are destroyed after the analysis completion. If the sample should be
   returned, please ask us in advance.
Cautions
Cautions
  - We use a bacterial identification kit for this service, which is not suitable for identification of
   fungus samples such as yeast and mold. For the identification of fungus, please inquire.

- The kit we use for this service might not be suitable for some types of bacteria. Please note
   that the identification would be quite difficult in that case.
   When we determine the further analysis performance is not available by this reason, the
   analysis will be stopped and actual expense of 7,000 JPY/sample will be charged. Thank you
   for your understanding.

- Please be noted that even when the provided sample was incompletely isolated and caused
   difficulty in sequencing, it will be charged in full.

- Samples are limited to the P1 level defined in "the Law concerning the Conservation and
   Sustainable Use of Biological Diversity through Regulations on the Use of Living Modified
   Organisms" (Cartagena Protocol) issued by Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science
   and Technology.

- Please note that we do not accept microorganisms, which do or may possess pathogenicity. In
   that case, please submit the sample in the form of extracted DNA.
