Invisible Sentinel’s wine quality products are powered by Veriflow® - a game-changing platform technology that combines proven diagnostic principles for microbial detection and innovative, first-in-class scientific approaches. Veriflow technology offers unparalleled performance with no compromise in ease-of-use or affordability.

The Veriflow system is comprised of a small customized thermocycler, pre-aliquoted PCR reagent tubes, and proprietary buffers. Semi-quantitative test results are obtained in less than 4 hours via hand-held cassette, and quantitative results can be tracked, stored, and exported via the Veriflow Reader.

Early detection at low levels

Using vinoBRETT, winemakers identify the presence of Brettanomyces long before the effects of 4-EP/EG exceed the sensory detection threshold. Brettanomyces management begins as early as the fermentation stage, which allows for proactive management with less intrusive methods before extensive or damaging remediation measures are required.

  • Robust detection even in young wines
  • Identify at-risk barrels to isolate and prevent cross-contamination

Speed, accuracy and sensitivity

Veriflow technology is AOAC International Certified for foodborne pathogen detection. vinoBRETT was developed specifically for wine makers and has been validated and implemented by a variety of award-winning, quality-centric wineries around the world.

  • Internal and external laboratory validation in collaboration with Jackson Family Wines and Enartis Vinquiry
  • 100% inclusive of 49 known isolates of Brettanomyces bruxellensis1
  • Correctly excluded 100% of multiple species of commonly occurring microorganisms found in wine

Simple and cost-efficient deployment

vinoBRETT is ideally suited for use in the winery – with a modest capital investment and affordable per-test cost. Sample collection and prep is simple, and can be completed by enologists and winemakers with minimal training.

  • The systems quantifies viable Brettanomyces populations in less than 4 hours
  • Requires only minutes of hands-on time to perform the test
