摘要
Flavobacterium columnare is a fresh water bacterium that causes columnaris diseases in over 36 fish species. Intra-species typing of F columnare can be performed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). However, this method is hampered by the degradation of chromosomal DNA in about 10% of strains. In the current study, DNA degradation problems caused by extracellular DNases were overcome by fixation of cells with formaldehyde prior to isolation. The results substantiate that after problems due to DNases are overcome, PFGE analysis is a reproducible highly discriminating epidemiological method for studying F columnare isolates regardless of fish host.
