DEPOSITION OF CULTURES
Intending depositors should first apply to the Head of
Station. The Centre is always willing to consider the
deposition of cultures of taxonomic or other importance.
It is recommended that important strains be deposited
in at least 2 major collections for safe keeping.
Depositors should supply as much information as
possible, preferably on our data sheets (available on
request), or on World Federation of Culture Collections
forms SCC-4. Reprints relating to the strains should be
sent if possible.
If desired, a newly—deposited culture may be withheld
from issue for a limited time, for example until
publication is effected.
Depositors may, within limits, receive cultures of their
own strains free of charge.
Deposition of strains subject to patent applications:
CCAP has applied for approval as an International
Depository Authority under the 'Treaty on the Inter—
national Recognition of the Deposit of Microorganisms
for the Purposes of Patent Procedure' (the Budapest
Treaty), and, once approval has been granted, strains
may be deposited under the terms of that Treaty, if
advance application is made to the Head of Station.
