The mold species Syncephalastrum racemosum, due to its distribution in tropical or subtropical regions, is not necessarily one of the typical indoor molds in Germany. However, this species is frequently found on spoiled food and is also introduced into temperate climates in the course of global food transport chains. The ability to maintain vital spores under anaerobic conditions also allows dissemination via vacuumed and dried foods.

As part of a collaborative effort, a data interface between GBA Group laboratories and Mineral Waste Manager will go live in October. This means that the assistance tool for mineral waste management will soon have a data interface to our laboratories and receive verified parameter values first-hand.
