描述

PIKA Weihenstephan™ FastOrange™ Yeast Agar is a color-changing agar used specifically for detecting yeast contamination during brewing and wine-making processes and in beer and wine products. Yeasts such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus, a superattenuating wild yeast that contains the gene for glucoamylase production and that can result in high pressures, are common causes of beer and wine spoilage. Upon incubation of beer or wine samples on PIKA Weihenstephan™ FastOrange™ Yeast Agar, the presence of yeast is identified by an easy-to-read color change; the colonies cause a color change in the underlying agar from violet to yellow that is evident even with turbid samples. The media is selective for yeast and contains antibiotics to inhibit the growth of other microorganisms.

• Versatile—suitable for all beer types including clear and turbid samples
• Easy to interpret—color indicator makes it suitable for all skill levels
• Fast—optimized for rapid growth and detection
