FastOrange® B, available as broth and agar, specifically detects beer spoiling bacteria in all stages of the brewing process. All the typical beer spoilers, Lactobacillus and Pediococcus as well as the anaerobic Megasphaera and Pectinatus are easily detected by a color change from violet to yellow.
With the 4everyone Detection Kits and the real time PCR thermocycler QuantStudio® from Thermo Fisher, PIKA Weihenstephan offers an intelligent microbiological testing solution for brewers who are searching for a direct replacement for the discontinued models Pall GeneDisc® or Chai Biotechnology’s Open qPCR®. When changing from these models, you can still use all equipment for sample preparation which you already have in your lab.
