From the nisZ gene sequence, a non-radioactive digoxigenin-labeled DNA probe, was tested for detection of nisin-producing strains using polymerase chain reaction amplification. The digoxigenin-labeled DNA probe clearly discriminated between nisin-producing and non-producing strains with a high degree of sensitivity and specificity. By agarose gel electrophoresis, 1.4 ng of nisin DNA was detected using the digoxigenin-labeled DNA probe compared with 11 ng using direct polymerase chain reaction amplification. A colony hybridization method using digoxigenin-labeled DNA to selectively detect nisinogenic bacteria showed that the nis-probe was specific and did not react with any other non-bacteriocinogenic and non-nisinogenic strains.
