Figure 1 PCR-DGGE analysis of the predominant bacterial communities in vaginal swabs from bacterial vaginosis (BV group) and healthy women (CN group). (A) Each lane of the PCR-DGGE gel represented one subject which was selected in its group at random. M represents a marker constructed in this study with the identified bands to facilitate the interpretation of the figure. Bands: 1: Uncultured Sneathia sp.; 2: Fusobacterium nucleatum subsp. nucleatum ATCC 25586; 3: Clostridium thermocellum ATCC 27405; 4: Lactobacillus iners; 5: Clostridium acetobutylicum; 6: Lactobacillus iners; 7: Clostridium thermocellum ATCC 27405; 8: Atopobium vaginae; 9: uncultured Eggerthella sp.; 10: uncultured Megasphaera sp.; 11: Lactobacillus crispatus. (B) Dendrogram of the DGGE profiles shown in panel A.
