After0 and 12 h of enrichment, it was possible to generate a linear standard curve betweenthe amount of cells and amplicon concentration of RT-PCR and PCR products. Usingthis method, cell diminution was verified in samples of orange juice treated with a nat-ural inhibitor (Sapindus saponaria), determining the persistence of viable cells. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR using the Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer is a potentially useful approachfor rapidin vitrodetermination ofA. acidoterrestrisand monitoring of inhibitor sus-ceptibility for the orange juice-producing industry. aAlicyclobacillus aAlicyclobacillus acidoterrestris aMicrochip technology aOrange juice aReverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction aMiniaturization aReversetranscriptase1 aREGITANO, L.
