Environmental Monitoring in food factory

Exploring Environmental Monitoring: Unveiling Its Benefits

In the intricate landscape of food manufacturing and production, ensuring product safety and quality is paramount. The implementation of a robust and comprehensive environmental monitoring program is essential for achieving these objectives, safeguarding both consumers and the reputation of food factories.

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and Metagenomics

All of the information required for a living being to grow, reproduce, and mature is encoded in sequences of 4 building blocks called nucleotides commonly abbreviated as C, G, A, and T) polymerized into long chains contained within cells called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

GENE-UP PRO ACB - Development of a Single Test to Detect Alicyclobacillus Species and Guaiacol Producing Strains

The partnership with Cornell University led to the development of GENE-UP® PRO ACB assay, a PCR multiplex method with a 24-hour enrichment. The assay targets Alicyclobacillus species on the FAM channel and predicts the ability of the species to produce guaiacol on the Cy5 channel. GENE-UP PRO ACB is therefore replacing two tests into one and provides results in 27 hours.

GENE-UP® BREWPRO™ WILD YEAST PLUS Validation & Sensitivity Data

The GENE-UP® BREWPRO™ WILD YEAST PLUS Test Kit is a real-time PCR assay for the detection of wild yeast species capable of causing spoilage in brewery products. The assay utilizes a multiplex detection method which targets novel Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus spoiler genes on the FAM channel, general Saccharomyces species on the HEX channel, Dekkera/Brettanomyces species on the CY5 channel, and an internal amplification control (IAC) on the CY5.5 channel.
