Description CIRM-CF is a biological resources center dedicated to the conservation of filamentous fungi, largely of interest for agro-industries. The primary role for this material, which is maintained under high-quality standards, is to contribute to enhance knowledge of scientific communities about the Fungal Kingdom. Besides, the collection is made accessible as support for research projects in many different fields e.g., green and white biotechnology, food processing, or on bioactive molecules. Since 2006, the CIRM-CF collection and related conservation activities (e.g., strain acquisition, authentication and distribution) are certified ISO 9001.
