What is GMO testing?
Food products that are modified through biotechnological methods have been on the market for decades. TÜV SÜD conducts the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test which qualifies and quantifies genetically modified organisms (GMO) present in your food or feed samples. This provides you with the independent verification you need to trade in confidence. TÜV SÜD experts utilise state-of-the-art GMO screening methods that provide a more cost-effective approach to identify authorised and unauthorised GMOs.
Why GMO testing is important
Food production is more sophisticated and complex than it ever has been previously. This means that the range and diversity of GMOs is also continually changing, which makes GMO detection harder than ever before.
Routine GMO screening is required because agricultural products that contain GMOs can unintentionally mix with non-GMO foods and feeds. This means that GMO detection is required across the entire supply chain to prevent cross contamination where GM crops can unintentionally enter non-GM food and feed production.
NGOs are now regularly performing GMO tests to ensure that products are compliant. As a result, it is vital that your business stays abreast with developments and regulatory changes concerning GMOs in human food.
By continually undergoing GMO testing and committing to the detection of genetically modified organisms, you can ensure that your business meets food laws, and your food labels also meet legal requirements on GMOs.
