| Abstract: | To regulate
the presence of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in crops, foods and food
ingredients, the development of reliable and sensitive methods for their
detection is necessary. In the present study, products derived from GM maize in
the Turkish market were monitored using methods to detect the presence of CaMV
35S promoter, nos terminator and Bt11
maize. The results demonstrated, for the first time, the presence of GM maize
in Turkish food and feed products qualitatively. |
