The 16th International Scientific and Practical Conference will continue the cycle of conferences initiated 20 years ago and devoted to new research in the chemistry and technologies of production and application of this unique class of natural compounds.
The 16th International Scientific and Practical Conference will continue the cycle of conferences initiated 20 years ago and devoted to new research in the chemistry and technologies of production and application of this unique class of natural compounds.
During these years, the volume of domestic production of plant lecithin that meets the requirements of international standards has increased in Russia.
The use of this functional and technological additive in various sectors of the food industry, in the production of feeds and technical products, has increased approximately two times.
Phospholipids, as biological emulsifiers with antioxidant and synergistic functions, have become widely used in clinical practice as nutrients and biologically active dietary supplements.
The main goal of the organized conferences is to analyze the scientific and technical development in this area of lipidology, to determine the trends of scientific and technological advance.

The International Lecithin and Phospholipid Society (ILPS) organized a Scientific Symposium in the historic German city of Cologne. Highly qualified experts were present with their latest research topics divided in 3 sessions (2 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon). Each session had 3+ speakers, who are leading experts in their fields of phospholipid science. The program gave time for meeting experts and communication with colleagues.
The ILPS Scientific Symposium on Monday (27 Nov 2017) took place at the Spectral Service AG lab/company in the city of Cologne in Germany.
The number of participants (72) exceeded the target and the capacity.
In memory of Willem van Nieuwenhuyzen († 2015), our founder member and director, an exhaustless operator for the dissemination of knowledge and for networking people sharing his interests in the fields of lecithin, the ILPS created this award.
Willem was a good personal friend of many of the ILPS members.
We all will miss him.
This year Willem van Nieuwenhuyzen AWARD was given to
Prof. Dr. Mabel C. Tomás, Professor at La Plata National University and Research Scientist at CIDCA-CONICET, La Plata/Argentina.

The Phospholipid Conference in Krasnodar will be organized in cooperation between ILPS (International Lecicthin and Phospholipid Society) and Protein Plus from St. Petersburg at the Kuban State University of Krasnodar. The conference program covers many topics about alternative raw materials for phospholipid production, phospholipid processing, medical and nutritional application, analytical issues and a market survey.
We are sorry to say that last week at the 8th of March our founder member and director Willem van Nieuwenhuyzen passed away from his cancer disease.
The funeral service took place among family and friends last weekend. According to his wife Jacobijn Willem has been busy until his last day with organizing his issues and they have been able to celebrate his 70th Birthday and their 45th Wedding anniversary.
We all lost a friend, a companion, a supervisor and an exhaustless operator for the dissemination of knowledge and for networking people sharing his interests in the fields of lecithin. He was a charismatic, pleasant and warmhearted person. We will miss him.
The 4th ILPS Short Course “Lecithin Functions in Technology and Nutrition” was held at the University Conference Center “Het Pand” in the sunny gothic center of Ghent with demonstrations in the laboratories. The number of 70+ participants exceeded the target. View a selection of photos.
The Changing World of Lecithins” is a 6 page paper on the world supply changes and quality aspects of soy, sunflower and canola (rapeseed) lecithins. The article is edited by ILPS Executive Director Willem van Nieuwenhuyzen and published in AOCS magazine INFORM April 2014, Vol 24 (4), 254-259. If you want to learn more about lecithin, please register for the ILPS Lecithin Short Course.
The International Lecithin and Phospholipid Society (ILPS) was recently registered as a not-for-profit association in Cologne, Germany. Originally ILPS was incorporated in 1991 in the USA. The ILPS Board and Membership decided to transfer the Society registration to Europe, since most ILPS events are organized in Europe. ILPS consists of corporate and private members from Academia, Institutes and Industry in the Food, Cosmetic, Pharmaceutical and Technical sectors.
