Monitoring Growth of Beer Brewing Strains of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae

Strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae serve critical roles in the production of many food staples such as beer, bread and wine. This application note describes the use of the Synergy™ H1 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader to provide temperature control, solution agitation, and monitor cellular yeast growth using light scatter in 96-well microplates.
