The A-YMS (Arxula-Yeast Mineralcorticoid Screen) for detecting mineralcorticoid activity in water is in development. Currently the screening and stabilization of promising A. adeninivorans transformants is in progress.
Similar to our A. adeninivorans based tests, the A-YMS will be capable to detect mineralcorticoid activity in sea and brackish water, drinking or ground water as well as in wastewater and aquaeous extracts.
Our partner company QuoData provides an interlaboratory study for effect-based in vitro methods to detect estrogenic activity.
Fast, simple and affordable. Our test from the family of the yeast based assays for the determination of estrogenic activity combines these three main attributes. Already after about four hours you can get a result of estrogenic activity of your samples. Depending on your test design, you can assess the estrogenic effects qualitatively or quantitatively.

Since July 2018 the standardization process of our A-YES has been accomplished. The method for determining estrogenic potential of different water types is now described in the ISO 19040-2:2018, called “Water quality – Determination of the estrogenic potential of water and waste water – Part 2: Yeast Estrogen Screen (A-YES, Arxula adeninivorans)”.
