Application of Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis and Temperature Gradient Gel Electrophoresis in Microbial Molecular Ecology
DGGE/TGGE技术及其在微生物分子生态学中的应用

In recent years, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) are well-established molecular tools in microbial molecular ecology that allows the study of diversity and dynamics of microbial communities. The technique is reliable, reproducible rapid and inexpensive. Here, the principle, the limitations and potentials application of DGGE/TGGE techniques are introduced in this paper.
