Testing Solutions for Yeast and Mold Detection

Yeasts and molds can contaminate foods through unsanitized equipment or as airborne contaminants. They thrive in conditions unfavorable for bacteria, such as low aw, low pH and high salt. Traditional microbiological methods for detection, quantification, and identification of yeasts and molds are time-consuming, taking up to 14 days. Our real-time PCR methods enable easy quantification within hours.
