New method for the early detection of vineyard mildew, powdery mildew and botrytis. May 9, 2013. The Basque Institute for Agricultural Research and Development, Neiker-Tecnalia, has developed a new method for the early detection of the diseases mildew, powdery mildew and botrytis in vines.
Colilert-18 is used for the simultaneous detection and confirmation of total coliforms and in fresh and marine watersE. coli . It is based on IDEXXâs patented Defined Substrate TechnologyÂ® (DSTÂ®). When total coliforms metabolize Colilert-18âs nutrient-indicator, ONPG, the sample turns yellow. When E.coli metabolize Colilert-18âs nutrient indicator, MUG, the sample fluoresces. Colilert-18 can simultaneously detect these bacteria at 1 MPN/100ml within 18 hours even with as many as 2 million other heterotrophic bacteria cells per 100ml present.
