Held in Krakow from June 8-10, 2010, the 2nd MoniQA International Conference was an inter- and cross-disciplinary event which formed a bridge between the daily concerns of citizens, economic considerations and food and nutrition science. In nine technical sessions the conference set out the state of the art concerning food safety standards, mycotoxins & phycotoxins, food allergens, chemical contaminants, microbiological contaminants, food additives, emerging technologies for food safety assessment and food authenticity.
The different angles and approaches of the many presentations that were given during the three conference days highlight the fact that the event brought together a diverse audience of about 180 food quality and safety scientists and trainers, food safety managers from industry, academia and regulatory bodies as well as representatives from food manufacturers, retailers and providers of rapid and high throughput analytical methods and instruments. In all some 35 countries from 5 continents were represented. The event was also of interest to food quality and HACCP practitioners, standardisation and validation organisations as well as representatives of consumer and trade organisations. Also included was a poster presentation and a "MoniQA Best Poster Award". Additionally, the conference featured results from the related projects BioCop (www.biocop.org) and CONffIDENCE (www.conffidence.eu) which increased the cross-fertilisation of ideas and ultimately will help deliver greater benefits to stakeholders around the world.
