Semiquantitative analysis of genetically modified maize and soybean in food Electron. J. Biotechnol.
Cazzola,María Laura; Petruccelli,Silvana.
The aim of this study was to analyze quantitatively the presence of genetically modified organism in food with different composition and degree of processing. Total DNA was extracted by Dellaporta's method and GMO analysis was performed using two consecutives PCR reactions with specie specific primers (IVR and LE), screening primers (35S) and transgen specific primers (CRY and EPSPS). The quantification within the sensitivity establish by the EU was possible only in some foods (ice-cream, flours, soybean isolates and concentrates, starch). Samples with high lipid content or subjected to intense thermal treatments (such as some snacks, mayonnaise, creamy soup) could not be amplified mainly due to the presence of PCR inhibitors. Therefore the method was...

Can Bt Maize Reduce Exposure to the Mycotoxin Fumonisin in South Africa? AgEcon
Pray, Carl E.; Rheeder, John; Gouse, Marnus; Volkwyn, Yvette; van der Westhuizen, Liana; Shephard, Gordon.
The mycotoxin fumonisin is associated with oesophageal cancer and birth defects. The Eastern Cape province of South Africa has high levels of fumonisin in maize and oesophageal cancer. This study measures the amounts of the mycotoxin fumonisin in the grain of Bt maize, commercial hybrids, and farmer-saved, local mixtures of seed that were produced and stored by small holders in South Africa. We find that adoption of Bt maize can reduce poor rural consumers exposure to fumonisin. Greater consumption of maize meal milled in modern mills could have a similar impact.

Irreversibility, Uncertainty and the Adoption of Transgenic Crops: the Case of BT-Maize in France AgEcon
Scatasta, Sara; Wesseler, Justus; Demont, Matty.
This study applies a real option approach to quantify, ex-ante, the maximum incremental social tolerable irreversible costs that would justify immediate adoption of Bt maize in France. Based on field trials, we find that incremental private reversible benefits in the agricultural sector are -18 million euro yearly for maize for animal feed and 1 million euro yearly for maize for human consumption. Incremental social irreversible benefits from reduced insecticide use are negligible. The maximum incremental social tolerable irreversible costs are -28 million euro yearly for maize for animal feed and 0.4 million Euro yearly for maize for human consumption.
