CropLife International releases on-line Detection Methods Database

Sourceк: CropLife International

Today, there are over 30 commercial traits in 57 countries which are growing and/or consuming biotech crops.  Reliable detection methods (DM) to test for the presence of agricultural biotechnology products are critical to help ensure smooth international trade transactions.

The plant biotechnology industry is committed to doing its part to support smooth trade transactions in the global agricultural community. As part of this commitment, CropLife International and its members have made their detection methods for commercialized biotech-derived products — and related materials and information — available in this online and searchable database.

The detection methods available here have been developed and validated by the technology providers for their own proprietary technologies and products. The plant biotechnology industry believes that sharing industry-developed detection methods can assist in achieving global harmonization of testing efforts.
The database is continuously being refined to respond to user recommendations and needs via this form.
