Intended use:

The kit allows the sensitive and group specific detection and differentiation between the beer spoilage micro organisms in pre-incubated beer or beverage samples:
Lactobacillus/ Pediococcus/Pectinatus/Megasphaera/yeasts
The screening and differentiation kit is designed for the use with the Lightcycler™ 2.0 and is based on the FRET technology.

General Information:

To detect these specialized beer spoilage micro organisms quickly during production or after filling, the real-time kit serves as a quick screening kit.
