isolation and properties of a bacteriocin-producing carnobacterium piscicola isolated from fish.	a facultative psychrotrophic lactic acid bacterium isolated from fresh fish was identified as carnobacterium piscicola on the basis of carbohydrate utilization, g + c content and 16s rna analysis. its bacteriocin, designated carnocin ui49, is produced during the mid-exponential phase of growth at temperatures between 15 degrees c and 34 degrees c. carnocin ui49 is active against a large number of closely-related lactic acid bacteria including carnobacteria, lactobacilli, pediococci and lactococc ...	1992	1429307
use of the polymerase chain reaction and oligonucleotide probes for the rapid detection and identification of carnobacterium species from meat.	the polymerase chain reaction (pcr) was used selectively to amplify specific rdna sequences of carnobacterium divergens, c. mobile, c. piscicola and c. gallinarum in purified dna extracts, crude cell lysates and food samples. the pcr products were visualized by agarose gel electrophoresis and identified, at species level, by hybridization reactions with three specific oligonucleotide probes for c. divergens, c. mobile and c. piscicola/c. gallinarum designed from 16s rrna sequence data. the pcr w ...	1992	1381346
genus- and species-specific oligonucleotide probes derived from 16s rrna for the identification of vagococci.	synthetic oligonucleotide probes specific for vagococci were designed from 16s rrna sequence data. molecular hybridizations with pcr-amplified rdna targets provided an unequivocal means of differentiating vagococci from related lactic acid bacteria (eg. carnobacterium, enterococcus, lactococcus) and identification at the generic and species levels.	1992	1367902
