CIAL-CSIC

Definition: Yeast collection generated mainly in the extinct Institute of Industrial Fermentations (IFI), restructured in the current Food Science Research Institute, CIAL-CSIC. This collection has been expanded at CIAL with isolates, identification and characterization. Currently, part of the collection is part of the CECT public deposits.

ISO 9001 (for strains deposited at CECT)

Part of the collection was deposited at the CECT as a result of the project financed with FEDER funds "Technological and molecular characterization of yeast strains of agri-food interest from the collection of the Institute of Industrial Fermentations", coordinated between the University of Valencia and the Institute of Agrochemistry and Food Technology (IATA-CSIC).
