Abstract:  An improved DNA extraction protocol with CTAB was developed for Lactobacillus rhamnosus. DNA was extracted successfully from the samples of 11 strains and was suitable for RAPD analysis. The optimization of a 25μl RAPD was determined as followed: template 50 ng, 2 U TaqDNA polymerase, 3.25 mmol/L dNTPs for each, 5 mmol/L primer, 2.5μl 10×PCR buffer, and 7.5 mmol/L Mg2+. The reaction program was devised for one cycled at 93 ℃ 2 minutes, 36 ℃ 1 minutes, 72 ℃ 2 minutes, which is followed by 40 cycles, each 1 minutes at 93 ℃, 1 minute at 36 ℃, 2 minutes at 72 ℃, and a final extension at 93 ℃ 2 minutes, 36 ℃ 1 minutes, 72 ℃ 10 minutes.

Key words: Lactobacillus rhamnosus, RAPD, optimalization
