The utility of this locus as a taxonomic and phylogenetic tool has been reported widely. This study, aimed at 16S rRNA gene (16S rDNA) and with the help of biomolecular methods, attempted to achieve the goal of rapid identification of common pathogens. In this study, 333 clinical isolated pathogenic bacteria were collected. Two pairs of primers were chosen and labeled with different fluorescent dyes and then used to amplify the genomic DNA extracted from bacteria. The PCR products were then detected by capillary electrophoresis-single strand conformation polymorphism (CE-SSCP). In order to pursue higher resolution and peak-separation effect, a high efficient separating medium, liner polyacrylamidedel (LPA), was put to use in this study. Finally, every bacteria colony generated distinct patterns from each other, which were easily to be used for identification. These results indicated that PCR-CE-SSCP was a rapid identification method for bacterial identification, with the aspects of high efficiency and high precision. Compared with traditional method, this technology is of great utility for clinical use especially for its high sensitivity.展开更多
