Detect GMO contents in food by reliable DNA based testing methods
Cultivation of GM (Genetically modified) crops has increased significantly across the globe. Genetically modified crops are cultivated from seeds that are genetically engineered to increase yields.
This increase in the GM food production has to meet various food laws and safety regulations globally to facilitate international trade. In India under Food Safety and Standards Act 2006, No person shall manufacture, distribute, sell and import any genetically modified (GM) article of food except under the Act and regulations made thereunder. And recently FSSAI (The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India) notified that any food that has 5% or more GM ingredients should be label as GMO. (Genetically modified organism)
