To employ 16S rDNA PCR and automated sequencing techniques to identify a collection of bacterial veterinary pathogens from avian, equine, canine and ovine sources, that have proven difficult to identify, employing conventional cultural techniques. Universal or “broad-range” eubacterial PCR was performed on a collection of 46 difficult-to-identify bacterial isolates originating from clinical veterinary specimens. 16S rDNA PCR was performed using two sets of universal primers to successfully generate a composite amplicon of 1,068 bp, which was sequenced to obtain each isolate’s identity. Sequence analysis was able to identify all isolates examined with relative ease. Where the use of molecular identification methods is justified, such as in outbreak control or bioterrorism in animal health, employment of partial 16S rDNA PCR and sequencing employing universal or “broad-range” 16S rDNA, provides a valuable and reliable method of identification of such pathogens.
