Abstract
A method for rapid detection and identification of hyperthermophilic archaea of the family Thermococcaceae based on PCR amplification of 16S rRNA gene fragments with primers TcPc 173F (5′-TCCCCCATAGGYCTGRGGTACTGGAAGGTC-3′) and TcPc 589R (5′-GCCGTGRGATTTCGCCAGGGACTTACGGGC-3′) was developed and used for identification of new isolates.Keywords
