Em nossa experiência, o DNA extraído das comunidades microbianas de espécies de madeira alimentando-cupim como nevadensis Zootermopis é suficientemente puro para o modelo de PCR, após uma rodada de extração e purificação. No entanto, alguns cupins, tais como lixo-alimentação e no solo alimentando-espécie pode ter uma maior concentração de ácidos húmicos em seu conteúdo intestinal e pode exigir a purificação adicional de DNA microbiano intestinal. O rendimento de DNA total das entranhas de 5 trabalhadores nevadensis Z. est...

extracting dna from the gut microbes of the termite (zootermopsis angusticollis) and visualizing gut microbes

Cupins estão entre os poucos animais conhecidos por terem a capacidade de subsistir unicamente por madeira de consumo. O trato intestinal de cupins contém uma população microbiana densa e ricos em espécies que auxilia na degradação da lignocelulose predominantemente em acetato, o nutriente chave alimentando o metabolismo de cupins (Odelson &amp; Breznak, 1983). Dentro destas populações microbianas são bactérias, archaea metanogênicas e, em alguns cupins (&quot;menor&quot;), eucarióticas protozoários. Assim, os cupins são sujeitos de pesquisa excelente para estudar as interações entre espécies microbianas ea inúmeras funções bioquímicas que desempenham em benefício de seus hospedeiros. A composição de espécies das populações microbianas nos intestinos de cupins, bem como os principais genes envolvidos em vários processos bioquímicos tem sido explorado através de técnicas moleculares (Kudo et al, 1998;. Schmit-Wagner et al, 2003;. Salmassi &amp; Leadbetter, 2003). Essas técnicas dependem da extração e purificação de alta qualidade ácidos nucléicos a partir do ambiente do intestino de cupins. A técnica de extração descrita neste vídeo é uma compilação modificada de protocolos desenvolvidos para a extração e purificação de ácidos nucléicos a partir de amostras ambientais (Mor et al, 1994;. Berthelet et al, 1996;. Purdy et al, 1996;. Salmassi &amp; Leadbetter, 2003;. Ottesen et al 2006) e que produz DNA a partir de material de cupim intestino posterior adequado para uso como modelo para a reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR).
