GMO Testing

In the past decade, genetic transformation technologies have revolutionized agricultural practices and millions of hectares of biotech crops have been cultured. Because of its unique ability to insert well-characterized gene sequences into the plant genome, genetic engineering can also provide effective tools to address fundamental biological questions.

The further expansion of commercially planted GMO regions increases the need for testing and analysis by companies who produce food, feed or seed. A carefully designed testing program will ensure that companies meet strict regulations in a timely and efficient manner while keeping their customers safe and reassured.
