Description

BCCM/LMG is a bacterial culture collection currently comprising over 25.000 well-characterized strains. The biological origin of our collection is very broad, including bacterial isolates from food, clinical, veterinary, agricultural, aquatic and other environmental sources. This way, the biological resources of BCCM/LMG may serve the needs of various R&D sectors, including green, red, blue and white biotechnology.
