Genetic Engineering and Testing Methodologies

Abstract

“Ensuring reasonable segregation allows the coexistence of different crops, whether genetically engineered, organic, or conventional. Monitoring requires accurate detection methods, especially in jurisdictions where thresholds are either not set at all (“zero tolerance”) or where only minute quantities of AP are allowed. These issues are particularly crucial on the farm, where seed commingling and AP of various contaminants is inevitable and occurs as a matter of course.”
