MICA Advance Alicyclobacillus is the result of fusing Diamidex solution to detect Alicyclobacillus guaiacol-positive bacteria in 24 hours and its MICA Advance counter allows for higher analysis volume. Designed for laboratory testing, MICA Advance Alicyclobacillus is both easy to use and one of the most efficient solutions on the market with no tradeoff between speed and quality. 

• Simple, five-step procedure. The Diamidex Alicyclobacillus solution uses familiar Pasteurian methods, with no major difference in results, making it simple to deploy into labs with minimal training. No confirmation steps are needed, as the MICA Advance counter does fully automatic counting.
• Fast-paced, high-quality results. Contrary to usual Pasteurian methods taking up to 14 days to deliver the highest quality results, MICA Advance Alicyclobacillus takes 24 to 48 hours to deliver the same quality results up to 1 CFU/per membrane. With a non-destructive method able to detect microcolonies thanks to the MICA counter, the incubation period is greatly reduced, enabling such quick results. 
• Guaiacol-positive specific results. Diamidex Alicyclobacillus solution is able to test only for guaiacol-positive Alicyclobacillus bacteria, removing the need to divide the process into two separate steps. This exclusive characteristic of Diamidex proprietary solution is currently the only one on the market able to give such results without any preliminary steps. 
• High volume capacity. The MICA Advance counter can handle up to 18 membranes at once, freeing up lab technicians' time and boosting overall efficiency. It can perform up to 500 analyses in 8 hours, making it ideal even for high-throughput labs.
• Suitable for both filterable and non-filterable matrices. MICA Advance Alicyclobacillus has been tested on 18 types of matrices, including fruit juice, flavored water and even raw materials like purees and hydrolats. The solution procedure stays the same for both type of matrices, needing an extra day of incubation for non-filterable matrices. 

MICA Advance Alicyclobacillus marks Diamidex's latest advancement in rapid microbial testing. By equipping your lab with this solution, you'll be ahead of the curve as new methods emerge. You'll also have the tools to expand your microorganism testing range if needed. The MICA Advance counter already works with Diamidex's Legionella pneumophila solution and will soon be able to test for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli too.
