Beverage spoilage yeast detection methods and control technologies: A review of Brettanomyces

Traditional methods such as microscopy, cell plating, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, etc. are often imprecise, expensive, and/or complicated. New emerging spoilage yeast detection platforms, such as biosensors and microfluidic devices, aim to alleviate these constraints. Novel platforms have already demonstrated great promise to be a real alternative for in situ and fast detection in the beverage industry. Finally, the review discusses the potential of emerging spoilage yeast detection and treatment methods.
