From a culture collection/scientific point of view the best database NCTC has ever had is the BioLoMICS one and the best website NCTC is ever likely to have is that which you developed for us based on our BioLoMICS and publicly available data

Since 2006, we have the privilege to use the BioloMICS software at the National Reference Center for Mycoses at the Institut Pasteur. One of our missions is the identification of yeasts and filamentous fungi responsible for invasive infections in humans and animals. By using the BioloMICS software we were able to create our own fungal database which stores all the clinical, biological and molecular data. This utmost tool permits us to perform routinely all kind of clustering (physiological, molecular), microplate reading and sequence management. Finally, the “BioAware support” provides immediate and efficient solutions for specific modifications or technical hitches.

BioloMICS is the largest and most complete software for the management, the analysis and the publication of any biological data. It's the Swiss Army Knife for biologists, ecologists, taxonomists and molecular biology researchers. A great tool, we couldn't work without anymore.
