Risk assessment of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)
EFSA’s remit in the risk assessment of GMOs is very broad encompassing genetically modified plants, microorganisms and animals and assessing their safety for humans, animals and the environment. The legal frame for GMOs is set by Directive 2001/18/EC on their release into the environment, and Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 on GM food and feed. The main focus of EFSA’s GMO Panel and GMO Unit lies ...
متن کاملEnvironmental Impact of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)
The intensification of agriculture has provided cheaper more plentiful food, but has also caused declines in farmland wildlife. The introduction of genetically modified (GM) crops may exacerbate this, or offer new ways of mitigating anthropogenic impacts. The potential consequences of the introduction of GM crops have been studied for over a decade, since commercialization. Although the specifi...
متن کاملPracticality of detection of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food
The increase in new GMOs (genetically modified organisms) has led to specific legislation world-wide to regulate the presence and/or the amount of GMOs in food, food ingredients, feeds and agriculture commodities. Regulatory demands of labelling and traceability of GMOs in the food chain need suitable sampling protocols and analytical methods. At present, two main techniques, the DNA-based poly...
متن کاملGenetically Modified Organisms
Some of us joined this Academy when Carlos Chagas was president. Upon meeting him for the first time, we knew that we were in the presence of a person of great vision, enormous integrity, and unquestioned dedication to science. His dedication to science had two foundations. One was his inherent fascination with the natural world. The second was his conviction that science could advance human we...
متن کاملDesign of a DNA chip for detection of unknown genetically modified organisms (GMOs)
MOTIVATION Unknown genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have not undergone a risk evaluation, and hence might pose a danger to health and environment. There are, today, no methods for detecting unknown GMOs. In this paper we propose a novel method intended as a first step in an approach for detecting unknown genetically modified (GM) material in a single plant. RESULTS A model is designed wh...
