Simultaneous detection of 6 spoilage organisms in one test

The Beer Spoilage PCR Micro Test kit was developed to rapidly detect major spoilage microorganisms within 2 hours directly from a spoiled beer sample or following a 24-48 hour enrichment step (recommended for clear beer).

This kit is intended for the detection of specific spoilage-causing wild yeasts (Saccharomyces diastaticus, Brettanomyces) and bacteria (Lactic acid bacteria, Megasphaera, Pectinatus and Aceticacid) in beer.

• Simultaneous detection of beer spoilage organisms: Brettanomyces bruxellensis/B. anomala, Lactic acid bacteria (including hop-resistant strains), Megasphaera, Pectinatus, Saccharomyces diastaticus and Aceticacid.
• Detection of spoilage organisms in spoiled products in 2 hours:
  Limit of detection: 10 to 100 cells/mL
• Detection of spoilage organisms by enrichment:
  Limit of Detection: 1 - 10 cells/mL Sample enrichment: 24 - 48 hr PCR operation and detection: 2 hr
