The foodproof® Beer Screening 1 LyoKit is an advanced beer PCR test kit delivering comprehensive beer spoilage detection for brewery quality control. This multiplex real-time assay enables beer Lactobacillus detection along with Pediococcus detection, Pectinatus, and Megasphaera screening in a single run. Unique hop resistance gene testing identifies horA and horC markers to predict which organisms are most likely to spoil finished beer. With analytical sensitivity of 1 to 10CFU/mL and under 40 minutes hands-on time, breweries gain reliable spoilage screening with minimal workflow disruption.
- Accurate results: trust results due to a high sensitivity and specificity, differentiates closely related species, meaning fewer re-tests and less waste of truly safe food
- Robust procedure: streamlined workflows minimises user errors and cross-contamination
- Easy-to-use: few pipetting steps, simple sample and reagent handling
- Superior sensitivity: detects small organism numbers with low DNA levels (or low levels of DNA), easily detects low-level contamination, keeping affected food from being released and decreasing risk of recalls
- Broad compatibility: suitable for a variety of real-time cyclers, allows fast integration into existing PCR labs
- Multiplex assays: detect multiple organisms in one single test, identify several targets in one assay to save sample volume and time by improving workflows
- Kits contain 96 reactions
