- Abstract
- Identification and classification of beneficial microbes is of the highest significance in food science and related industries. Conventional phenotypic approaches pose many challenges, and they may misidentify a target, limiting their use. Genotyping tools show comparatively better prospects, and they are widely used for distinguishing microorganisms. The techniques already employed in genotyping of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are slightly different from one another, and each tool has its own advantages and disadvantages. This review paper compiles the comprehensive details of several fingerprinting tools that have been used for identifying and characterizing LAB at the species, sub-species, and strain levels. Notably, most of these approaches are based on restriction digestion, amplification using polymerase chain reaction, and sequencing. Nowadays, DNA sequencing technologies have made considerable progress in terms of cost, throughput, and methodology. A research journey to develop improved versions of generally applicable and economically viable tools for fingerprinting analysis is ongoing globally. © 2020, The Author(s).
