This series of Workshops com- menced in Boston, USA, in July 1984, from which the proceedings were published as Methods for Mycological Examination of Food (edited by A. D. King et al., published by Plenum Press, New York, 1986). The second Workshop was held in Baarn, the Netherlands, in August 1990, and the proceedings were published as Modern Methods in Food Mycology (edited by R. A. Samson et al., and published by Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1992). The Third Workshop was held in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1994 and the Fourth near Uppsala, Sweden, in 1998. The proceedings of those two workshops were pub- lished as scientific papers in the International Journal of Food Microbiology. International Workshops on Food Mycology are held under the auspices of the International Commission on Food Mycology, a Commission under the Mycology Division of the International Union of Microbiological Societies. Details of this Commission are given in the final chapter of this book. This Fifth Workshop was organised by Ulf Thrane, Jens Frisvad, Per V. Nielsen and Birgitte Andersen from the Center for Microbial Biotechnology, Technical University of Denmark, Kgs. Lyngby, v vi Foreword Denmark. This Center, through numerous publications and both undergraduate teaching and graduate supervision has been highly influential in the world of food mycology for the past 20 years and more. Trine Bro and Lene Nordsmark from the Center also carried out the important tasks of providing secretarial help to the Organisers and solving the logistics of moving participants from Copenhagen to Samsø and back. Samsø provided an ideal setting for the Fifth Workshop, as the island is made up of rural agricultural communities, with old villages and rustic land and seascapes. The Fifth Workshop was attended by some 35 participants, drawn from among food mycology and related disciplines around the world. The workshop was highly successful, with papers devoted to media and methods development in food mycology, as is usual with these workshops. Particular emphasis was placed on the fungi which pro- duce mycotoxins, especially their ecology, and through ecology, poten- tial control measures. Sessions were also devoted to yeasts, and the inactivation of fungal spores by the use of heat and high pressure. Nearly 40 scientific papers were presented over three days of the work- shop, and these papers are the major contributions in these Proceedings. The organisers especially wish to thank the sponsors of the Fifth Workshop: BCN Laboratories, Knoxville, Tennessee, USA; the Danish ECB5 Foundation, Copenhagen; Novozymes A/S, Bagsværd, Denmark; LMC Centre for Advanced Food Studies, Copenhagen; the Danish Research Agency STVF, Copenhagen, though Grant Number 26-03-0188; Eurofins Denmark A/S, Copenhagen and the Mycology Division of the International Union of Microbiological Societies, for their support which made this workshop possible.
