Bibby Scientific announced today that it has launched a Techne PCR-based method for reliable and highly specific detection of the yeast, Dekkera bruxellensis, which is a major cause of wine spoilage worldwide, causing large economic losses within the global wine industry.

Flavour-spoiling phenolic compounds released from this yeast lead to undesirable aromas, known as ‘Brett’ taints, that are normally associated with aromas of barnyard, burnt plastic, wet animal and horse-sweat. Detection of the yeast through traditional microbiological techniques can be time-consuming, costly and unreliable. In contrast, real-time or quantitative PCR-based detection methods allow for exceptionally rapid and highly...

Dekkera bruxellensis (D. bruxellensis) is a yeast native to the Belgian Senne valley located near Brussels. It is a hemiascomycetes yeast, meaning primitive and morphologically simple, with an absent or poorly developed mycelium and no formation of hyphae.

Its genome size ranges from under 20 to over 30 mega base pairs (Mb). The asexual reproductive form in the life cycle of this organism is known as Brettanomyces bruxellensis (B. bruxellensis), one of several members of the genus Brettanomyces. In the wild this microorganism lives on the skins of fruit and plays a key role in the production of Belgian Lambic style beers. Belgium’s beer and wine tradition is no newcomer to the alcoholic beverage industry. Belgium’s monastic, spontaneously fermenting lambic wheat beer family predates the pitching of yeast by brewers, whilst fermenting of beers with cherry (Kriek) and raspberry (Framboise) and spiced white brews predate the hop....

Techne now offer over 400 qPCR detection / speciation kits suitable for any qPCR instrument. Techne qPCR reagent kit contents are lyophilised (freeze dried) enabling ambient shipping which reduces shipping costs and freight complexity.

Do more with less

48 wells makes less waste - Due to patented thermal technology and 5X higher uniformity than a typical 96 well system, Prime Pro 48 has no dependency on unnecessary replicates to mitigate poor system performance. This means less sample waste and more valid experiments than a typical 96 well system – with MIQE compliant data.....

Techne, a Bibby Scientific brand, has launched its latest offering to assist biological laboratories tasked with heating biological or chemical laboratory samples.

The new Flexi-block accessory can heat almost any sample from ambient temperature up to 200?C, including those stored in 0.2ml, 0.5ml, 2.0ml and 5.0ml micro tubes and any diameter test-tube, vial, cuvette or micro plate. This flexibility means laboratories can achieve new levels of efficiency, as researchers are able to heat any sample, regardless of container or type, without having to change or recalibrate instruments...

Techne has extended its Prime range of thermal cyclers with the addition of a new in situ hybridisation adapter.

This new innovation allows users to utilise the high performance of the Prime 96 x 0.2ml thermal cycler in an even greater range of applications. By simply inserting the adapter, a standard thermal cycler is instantly converted to an in situ instrument capable of accommodating up to 4 standard size microscope slides with ±0.25?C block uniformity. The in situ adapter is a single piece of precision engineered aluminium and, other than occasional cleaning with a mild laboratory detergent, requires no maintenance, making it convenient for busy multi-user labs....
