Isolation of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria from a Water Sample for Molecular Analysis

Source: Ghadigaonkar, D. and Rath, A. Isolation and Identification of Waterborne Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria and Molecular Characterization of their Antibiotic Resistance Genes. J. Vis. Exp. (2023)This video demonstrates the isolation and preparation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria from a water sample using selective media. The DNA is extracted from antibiotic-resistant bacteria and amplified to identify the bacterial antibiotic-resistant genes.
