Determination of Varietal Purity

Aquí están las traducciones del contenido HTML: INGLÉS:

Introduction:

In the malting and brewing industry, determining the purity percentage of samples at different stages of production as well as the percentage of their components in the mixture is crucial to maintain knowledge throughout the entire production chain and ensure better quality in the final product.

About the study:

Extraction and purification of genomic DNA from barley or malt seeds. Amplification of polymorphic regions using a pool of primers designed and verified by the laboratory. Sequencing of amplified regions by Next Generation Sequencing on the Personal Genome Machine® System platform. Bioinformatic study of the DNA sequences obtained using Variant Caller 5.0 software. Purity determination using GeniaFox 1.2. NOTE: To perform the study, it is necessary that the possible varieties of the sample are in the Genexa database.

Sample type:

At least half a kilogram of malt or barley seed sample

Technique used:

SNP marker analysis by next-generation sequencing (NGS)

Timeframe:

To be agreed, depending on quantity
