The soil chemical properties were characterized to fully understand their nature. Metagenomic approach was used to extract soil DNA using the fast DNA Spin Kit extraction technique. The PCR-electrophoresed DNA bands were excised and subjected to a full scale Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis. DGGE fingerprinting for the PCR-16S rDNA product revealed a diverse profile of complex population of bacterial community in the study area. The study shows that more bacterial community can be fully investigated using molecular techniques rather than traditional culture method. The implication of the results obtained is discussed.展开更多

Also, electrophoresis buffers were used widely to separate any DNA molecule. In this paper, we used four types of previously known electrophoresis buffers to compare which is easy for preparation, simple in structure, low cost and good performance in agarose gel electrophoresis. For this, we used two agarose concentration (1%, 2%) and two types of DNA ladder (100 bp, 1 kb) represent both smaller and larger sizes of molecule for each type of buffers, from the result we found in first level both supper buffer and TAE buffer with good performance and in second level we found bicarbonate buffer also with good performance also. Finally, we found the tang buffer cannot pose any electrophoretic activity on DNA agarose gel electrophoresis.展开更多
