Introduction
Bacteria are microorganisms which are
found ubiquitously in food, soil and
water environments. They can either
be beneficial or harmful to these
various ecosystems, or they may have
no impact at all. The use of various
types of bacteria in biotechnology
demands for their rapid and accurate
identification.
Therefore,
this
workshop is aimed to provide handson training on molecular techniques
for bacterial identification.
Objectives
• To provide participants with the
knowledge in nucleic acid- and
protein-based techniques for the
identification of bacteria.
• To provide a hands-on experience in
the identification of bacteria using
polymerase chain reaction (PCR),
RFLP
and
automated
DNA
sequencing.
Registration Form
The four-day workshop program
includes lectures and hands-on training
sessions on:
• nucleic acid extraction
