Fermentative yeasts – Screening

Specific identification of yeasts of the genera Saccharomyces,
Zygosaccharomyces, Pichia, Dekkera and Candida

 

Item Number: 01230034

Lab analysis: screening of fermentative yeasts

Analysis of grown colonies or pure cultures using highly specific gene probes for following yeast genera: Saccharomyces, Zygosaccharomyces, Pichia, Dekkera and Candida . The detected yeast genera are reported specifically.

Results will be provided within the next working day after sample receipt.

Qualitative or quantitative detection?
Qualitative

Which method is applied?
The reliable VIT® gene probe technology.

Which requirements are important?
Pre-enriched samples:
Pre-enriched bouillons (10 ml) or agar plates with colonies.
