During the study, we found that the Taq DNA polymerase used for PCR [polymerase chain reaction] adds on a single extra base (usually an A) at the end of a large fraction of the newly synthesized chains. These had to be removed by the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase to insure restoration of the gene sequence. 3, record 1, English, - Taq%20polymerase

[...] on appelle bactéries thermorésistantes celles qui résistent à un chauffage de 72 ºC pendant 15 secondes ou à 63 ºC pendant 30 minutes. [...] Alors que certaines [bactéries] sont détruites par un traitement classique de pasteurisation (chauffage à 72 ºC pendant 20 secondes), d’autres résistent encore à 88 ºC pedant 20 secondes. Les bactéries thermorésistantes n’étant pas détruites par la pasteurisation habituelle, leur présence dans le lait cru peut avoir des conséquences graves pour la qualité des produits. 4, record 3, French, - bact%C3%A9ries%20thermor%C3%A9sistantes
