New Trends in Molecular Techniques to Identify Microorganisms in Dairy Products
2018
International audience; Dairy products constitute one of the most important types of functional foods. Most of these functional properties have been attributed to their complex microbial ecosystem. Moreover, microorganisms are responsible for the broad diversity of tastes, aromas, and textures of dairy products. For instance, many bacteria make a positive contribution to the organoleptic quality of cheeses or fermented milk. However, some other bacteria may have adverse effects, or may even present a health risk from a safety point of view. Thus, it is of a paramount importance to control microbial ecosystem of dairy products. Traditionally culture-based methods have been used for the ident…
Digital image processing for rapid analysis of differentially expressed transcripts on high-density cDNA arrays.
1999
Usage of filter arrays is becoming increasingly attractive for many research laboratories involved in determination of gene-expression profiles. However, analysis of numerous spots, representing genes or partial gene sequences (ESTs), is still tedious work involving the ordered analysis of vast amounts of numerical tabular data. We present a rapid and efficient method for the visual identification of differentially expressed targets on high-density cDNA filter arrays using standard laboratory equipment and standard software, which is available for free. The method we introduce provides an inexpensive alternative, and no changes in the experimental set up are required. Our results were veri…
