• Keywords: RAPD; Bifidobacterium; fingerprinting
• Description: RAPD fingerprinting performed with 7 random primers was used to differentiate among species of Bifidobacterium. The technique was established using DNA from 16 type and reference strains of bifidobacteria of 11 species. The above-mentioned method was applied for the identification of 7 strains of Bifidobacterium spp. collected in the Czech Collection of Dairy Microorganisms (CCDM). The strains collected in CCDM were differentiated to the species level. Six strains were identified as B. lactis, one strain as B. adolescentis.
