Figure 1

Figure 1. . Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products formed from total DNA of lactococcal strains with primers LLF and LLR. Lane A, molecular size marker; lane B, negative control. Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis ATCC 19435 (lane C), L. lactis subsp. lactis ATCC 11007 (lane D), and the clinical isolates (lanes J, K, and L) generated a PCR amplification product of 650 bp. No amplification was observed from L. garvieae NCFB 2155 (lane E), clinical isolates of L. garvieae (lanes F, G, H and I), L. piscium NCFB 2778 (lane M), Streptococcus iniae ATCC 29187 (lane N), Vagococcus fluvialis NCFB 2497 (lane O), and Enterococcus faecalis CECT 481 (lane P).
