Amplification of 200-1000-bp DNA fragments was performed in 15-30 min using a rapid thermal cycler based on the commercial instrument TC-1000-1 (IRLEN, St. Petersburg, Russia). Plastic pipette tips were used as thin walled, high surface to volume-ratio tubes, to increase the rate of heating (cooling) of 20 microliters samples, which allowed the time required for DNA amplification to be considerably reduced (5-10 times).

Laboratory of Comparative Pathology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Hokkaido University, Kita 18 Nishi 9, Kita-Ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, 060-0818, Japan.

Background: Glanders and melioidosis are contagious zoonotic diseases caused by Burkholderia mallei and B. pseudomallei, respectively. Bacterial isolation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) have been used to detect these bacteria in animals suspected of infection; however, both methods require skilled experimental techniques and expensive equipment.
