Yet more problems with CRISPR – with consequences for food safety

2-22-2020 GMWatch: “Adding to the list of problems that can occur with CRISPR, a new study shows that when the CRISPR/Cas system was used in a gene editing procedure aimed at inserting genetic material in mice, a high frequency was found of insertions of multiple copies of the DNA molecules used as…” More

Risk assessment of genetically engineered plants that can persist and propagate in the environment

Paper Bauer-Panskus, A., Miyazaki, J., Kawall, K. et al. Risk assessment of genetically engineered plants that can persist and propagate in the environment. Environ Sci Eur 32, 32 (2020). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12302-020-00301-0

Abstract

“New challenges arise in risk assessment when genetically engineered (GE) plants can persist and propagate in the environment as well as produce viable offspring. Next generation effects can be influenced by heterogeneous genetic backgrounds and unexpected effects can be triggered in interaction with environmental conditions. Consequently, the biological characteristics of the original events cannot be regarded as sufficient to conclude on hazards that may emerge in following generations. Potential hazards identified by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) include exacerbating weed problems, displacement and even extinction of native plant species.”

Zwitserland maakt pas op de plaats met uitrol van 5G uit gezondheidsoverwegingen

Van JRS Eco Wireless: Update 28-2: Het kanton Genève voert een driejarig moratorium in op 4G+ en 5G. De wetswijziging bepaalt dat voor elke nieuwe installatie gedurende deze periode een vergunning vereist is. Dit geldt voor zowel ‘4G+’, ook wel ‘1st wave’ 5G genoemd, dat op de 3,5 Gigahertz-frequentie werkt, als voor 5G op ……. Meer

New U.S. bioengineering (GMO) label in effect, but confusing for manufacturers and consumers

By vast Published: January 28, 2020. The Non-gmoreport

Quote: Jan. 1, 2020 marked the effective date for labeling food containing detectable genetically modified material—with full compliance required by Jan. 1, 2022. While some companies like General Mills have already begun voluntary labeling, the Department of Agriculture’s new instructions for compliance are not clear to manufacturers and retailers.

GMO- Labels in de USA op producten met gentech ingrediënten. Pas bij 5% vervuiling, niet in restaurants niet bij zuivel. Bioengineering= gentech.
