International conference:
'The Biology
of Vibrios: Biodiveristy, Genomics, Disease/Epidemiology, Ecology, and
Applications', 7-8 November 2005, Ghent, Belgium
The Belgian Co-ordinated Collections of Micro-organisms (BCCMTM)
constitute a consortium of four complementary research-based culture collections
financed by the Belgian
Federal Science Policy Office.
Over 50.000 well-documented and authenticated strains of bacteria, filamentous and yeast fungi (including the most important test and control strains) and over 1.500 plasmids are readily deliverable by BCCMTM on a world-wide basis. Some 10 unique cDNA libraries are also made available.
MISSION
The BCCMTM consortium aims to share the biological material of its collections, related information, as well as its experience and know-how in the field of fundamental and applied (micro)biology to the benefit of its partners and clients in the scientific and industrial communities.
The BCCMTM collections are therefore combining scientific expertise with quality in service.
