Evaluation of Three Different Forward Primers by Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis for Determination of Fecal Bifidobacterium Spp. in Healthy Subjects

The 27F forward primer is frequently used in 16S rRNA gene libraries and T‐RFLP analysis. However, Bifidobacterium spp. were barely detected with this primer in human fecal samples. In this study, fecal microbiota were analyzed using the T‐RFLP method with three different forward primers (27F, 35F,...
