The Brewers QCheck® Kit contains ready-to-use culture media, allowing simple, fast and comprehensive microbiological control of all samples in the brewing process. The kit is particularly suitable for micro- and craft breweries who wish to establish microbiological quality control in their processes. All microbiological findings can be easily and reliably seen through a colour change, even without any previous knowledge. Only minimal laboratory equipment is required. The Brewers QCheck® Kit thus allows the entire beer brewing process to be microbiologically controlled, providing the perfect introduction to microbiological quality control.

Supplier: Merck

In combination with the selective supplement Lithium-Mupirocin (MUP) the TOS Propionate agar allows the direct detection of viable bifidobacteria in starter cultures and various milk products like fermented and unfermented milk, milk powder and baby food. The growth of other lactic acid bacteria is very much inhibited so that a confirmation of presumptive bifodobacteria is in most cases not necessary.

A wide variety of sterile ampoule media for common microbiological analyses, in clear glass or plastic ampoules. Supplied pre-measured for maximum efficiency and convenience. For public wastewater and drinking water: MF-Endo and M-FC (with and without rosolic acid for helping to increase the specificity of the medium for faecal coliforms) media are used when analysing water samples for total coliforms, faecal coliforms and E. coli. For food and beverage: M-TGE, HPC, M-Green YM, and orange serum broths are used in the food and beverage industry to QC final products (and fluids used in the manufacture of these products) to detect potential spoilage organisms. Trypticase soy broth, M-TGE, and HPC may be used to test final products and process waters for total bacteria in the pharmaceutical and microelectronics industries. Pseudomonas and KF-Streptococcal broths are highly selective media for organisms in these genera, and are used to monitor samples wherever contamination by these organisms must be prevented.
