摘要

1. Poll for interest in a subcommittee to evaluate foam testing methods. 2. Poll for interest in a subcommittee to evaluate thiobarbituric acid test as a predictor for flavor stability in beer. 3. Poll for interest in a subcommittee to evaluate PCR microbial identification methods. 4. Poll for interest in a subcommittee to evaluate methodologies for determination of CO_2 in packaged beer. 5. Poll for interest in a subcommittee to evaluate a spectrophotometric method to determine concentrations of reduced iso alpha-acids in beer. 6. Recruit individual to undertake research on effect of different degassing methods on various beer analytes. 7. Form a subcommittee to evaluate a spectrophotometric method to determine protein in hopped wort. 8. Form a standing subcommittee to evaluate existing methods in the Methods of Analysis (MOA) for accuracy and usefulness for the purpose of making recommendations regarding any sections or methods that require revision or archiving. The subcommittee will begin by reviewing the Hops section of the MOA.
