Bio-Speedy® Fungal DNA Isolation Kit From Food Samples is based on the principle that the genetic material in molds and yeast cells in foods is extracted by physical separation, heat treatment and enzymatic removal from the cell and isolated by a series of processes such as centrifugation, washing, filtration.
It is recommended that it is used in conjunction with the “Bio-Speedy® Dead Cell Elimination Kit” in case only when living fungi in food sample need to be detected. At this point, it is possible to eliminate the dead microorganisms in food samples with the aid of enzymes and to detect only the remaining living mold and yeast cells.
The kit can be applied directly to homogenized food samples or to food samples that have been pre-enriched in liquid media.
INTENDED USE
Bio-Speedy® Fungal DNA Isolation Kit From Food Samples is used to obtain the genetic material required for the molecular detection of molds and yeast (fungi) in food samples.
