Jubileum Symposium 25 jaar Stichting Food Micro
“Trends en ontwikkelingen in de levensmiddelenmicrobiologie”
Op donderdag 4 december 2025 viert de Stichting Food Micro op de Landgoederij te Bunnik haar 25-jarig jubileum. Wij nodigen u graag uit voor dit bijzondere evenement. Gerenommeerde sprekers zullen naar eigen inzicht lezingen verzorgen over recente en toekomstige ontwikkelingen in hun vakgebied. Daarbij komen voedselveiligheidsvraagstukken aan de orde in relatie tot bacteriën, schimmels en virussen, maar ook actuele problemen met chemische contaminanten.
Sprekers zijn:
- Marcel Zwietering(WUR, Wageningen): Openingslezing over trends en ontwikkelingen in de levensmiddelenmicrobiologie,
- Mieke Uyttendaele(Universiteit Gent): Tweede inleidende lezing over de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen op het gebied van microbiologie en voedselveiligheid,
- Marjon Wells-Bennik(NIZO, Ede): Bacteriën in relatie tot voedselveiligheid,
- Jan Dijksterhuis(Westerdijk Institute, Utrecht): De rol van schimmels bij voedselbederf, met aandacht voor de vorming van mycotoxinen,
- Miranda de Graaf(Erasmus MC, Rotterdam); Virussen in voeding.
Symposium: Voedselveiligheid
Vier sprekers geven hun mening over de huidige stand van voedselveilgheid. Naast kennis van voedselinfecties en -voedselvergiftigingen en het verminderen of voorkomen ervan, is het belangrijk om ook geïnformeerd te worden over de hygiënehypothese. Dat gaat onder andere over de blootstelling aan infectiebronnen op jeugdige leeftijd. De lezingen worden (met een vrolijke noot) afgesloten.

LinkMM-bijeenkomst (voorheen WHAMM)
Date: 25 november 2025
LinkMM (voorheen WHAMM) bestaat uit leidinggevenden van medisch microbiologische laboratoria. Deze nationale werkgroep heeft ongeveer 50 leden en komt één tot twee keer per jaar bijeen.
Het doel van de werkgroep is het uitwisselen van kennis en informatie tussen leidinggevenden van medische microbiologische laboratoria. Bovendien streeft de werkgroep ernaar invloed uit te oefenen op kwesties binnen deze laboratoria, door deel te nemen aan diverse commissies en werkgroepen binnen de NVML. Denk daarbij aan de commissies opleiding, nascholing en kwaliteit.
De bijeenkomsten van de werkgroep omvatten gewoonlijk presentaties door voornamelijk externe sprekers, over uiteenlopende onderwerpen – zowel vakinhoudelijk als gericht op management. Deze presentaties worden afgewisseld met discussies over stellingen die leidinggevnden in de dagelijkse praktijk tegenkomen.

Specialization Course in Medical Mycology
Medical mycology is a domain of medical microbiology of increasing importance. Fungi are frequently responsible for superficial mycoses but also cause life-threatening invasive infections in patients with reduced immunity. With an ever-increasing mobility of people, the importance of imported fungal pathologies is also increasing. The course aims to provide insight into fungal infections, host factors, clinical pictures, diagnosis and treatment of these infections. An important part of the course will be devoted to the acquisition of skills for the identification of fungi. The aim of the course is to enable participants to give adequate mycological advice in clinical practice. All common fungal infections will be discussed. Theoretical sessions alternate with discussions of clinical cases and practicals.

Pick 4-5 colonies from 24-hours old cultures and suspend in saline solution or sterile water in order to obtain a 0.5 McFarland cell density. Introduce a sterile swab into the suspension and inoculate the RPMI Agar plate. Allow the plate to dry, position the antifungal strip onto the agar surface with the maximum concentration nearest the periphery of the plate.
Incubate at 35 °C for 24-48 hours.
Read the M.I.C. value where the edge of the inhibition ellipse intersects the strip (intersection between two scale segments should be round up to the higher value).

Isavuconazole MTS™ (MIC Test Strip), IVU 0.002-32 ?g/mL , is a quantitative method for the in-vitro susceptibility testing of Candida spp., Aspergillus spp. and Mucorales.
Isavuconazole is a novel broad-spectrum triazole agent with activity against a variety of opportunistic and pathogenic yeasts and moulds. Isavuconazole can be administered either orally or intravenously as a water soluble prodrug, isavuconazonium sulfate (Cresemba®), which then is rapidly cleaved by esterases into active component and an inactive prodrug cleavage product. Isavuconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis in the fungal membrane. Previous in vitro studies have shown good activity against all Candida spp and species of Aspergillus and Mucorales. Potent activity against Cryptococcus spp and other emerging yeast infections has been demonstrated as well.

D-value verification
Liofilchem®
D-value verification
Liofilchem performs D-Value and Z-Value analysis by direct inoculation of product or equipment using Biological Indicator Organisms (BI’s).

D-values are stated by the manufacturer on the Biological indicator but often require verification for a higher degree of accuracy and process specificity. The Pharmacopoeias and ISO11138 stress on the importance of D-value verification to ensure the accuracy of a stated manufacturer D-value.
Our Biological Indicator Evaluation Resistometer (BIER) Vessel autoclave verifies the D-value by accurately delivering a calibrated and pre-determined level of lethality.
The log reduction achieved for exposure time is assessed through the exposure of the BI for defined time points and interpretation via fractional analysis. This process allows the accurate verification of the manufacturer’s stated D-value.

Microbiology products

Cefiderocol MTS™ (MIC Test Strip), FDC 0.016-256 ?g/mL , is a quantitative method for the in-vitro susceptibility testing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to Cefiderocol.
MTS™ consists of special porous paper impregnated with a pre-defined concentration gradient of an antimicrobial agent, used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in ?g/mL of antimicrobial agents against bacteria as tested on agar media using overnight incubation and manual reading procedures.
Cefiderocol is a siderophore cephalosporin with activity against aerobic Gram-negative organisms. It binds to free iron and is actively transported into bacterial cells through the outer membrane. This Trojan horse strategy allows cefiderocol to enter the space in-between the bacterial cell walls and disrupt cell wall synthesis. In addition, cefiderocol is stable against nearly all beta-lactamases, including both the serine and metallo-carbapenemases.

Hamilton, MolGen, and EWC Diagnostics join forces to scale up SARS-CoV-2 testing capacity in the Netherlands
Today, Hamilton, MolGen, and EWC Diagnostics announce their strategic partnership to scale up SARS-CoV-2 testing capacity in the Netherlands.
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, demand for SARS-CoV-2 detection tests has significantly increased. In order to increase testing capacity, the Dutch government, through the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, invited commercial organizations to respond to a tender released this summer.
PathoFinder and EWC Diagnostics partnership to meet COVID-19 testing demands in the Netherlands.
PathoFinder and EWC Diagnostics announce their collaboration to rapidly advance the expansion of COVID-19 testing capacity in the Netherlands by providing the Dutch government with complete sets of sampling materials and SARS-CoV-2 PCR kits.
