Example of methods that would be used for identification of a newly isolated enteric bacterium, using conventional microbiological methods (the example given shows the procedures that would be used for identifying E.coli). Note that most of the analyses here require that the organisms be grown in pure culture and that solely phenotypic criteria be used in the identification of biochemical tests

All combinations are tried and excess unlabeled dna is added in each experiment. All combinations are tried and excess unlabeled DNA is added in each experiment to prevent labeled dNa from reannealing with itself. Following hybridization, hybridized dNA is separated from unhybridized dna before measuring radioactivity in the hybridized DNA only.(c) Results.
