Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is molecular diagnostic method which allows the identification of lactic acid bacteria used in food industry. In this work species-specific PCR primers (targeted on highly conserved 16S rDNA region) were used for identification of bacteria of species Streptoccocus thermophilus in 10 randomly commercially accessible fermented milk products and for identification of species Streptococcus thermophilus in 25 lyophilisates collected in Culture Collection of Dairy Microorganisms Laktoflora (CCDM, Tábor, Czech Republic). The PCR products (968 bp) were detected using electrophoresis in 1,2 % agarose gel. Bacterial DNA was isolated from crude cell lysates by magnetic carriers P(HEMA co GMA) containing carboxyl groups. DNA was reversibly bind on their surface in the presence of high concentrations of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 6000) and sodium chloride. Phenol extraction of DNA was used as control. Streptococcus thermophilus strains were identificated using PCR in all analysed samples.
