据欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)消息,10月9日欧盟食品安全局就转基因生物上市申请当中涉及的90天喂养试验做了进一步说明。
欧盟食品安全局的本次声明建立在2011年发布的老鼠90天全食品/饲料研究指南文件当中的原则基础之上。
本次声明包括三大主要目标,有助确保转基因申请的一致性。欧盟食品安全局还对90天喂养试验的试验设计与方法提出了建议。
部分原文报道如下:
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) presents further details on how to design and conduct a 90-day feeding study as part of an application to place a genetically modified organism on the market in the European Union (EU)。 The explanatory statement builds on the principles set out in EFSA's previous guidance document on 90-day whole food/feed studies in rodents published in 2011.
EFSA's statement has three main objectives. Firstly, it clarifies the possible approaches for carrying out whole food and feed 90-day studies in GM plant risk assessment within the new regulatory context. Secondly, the document gives detailed instructions on how to apply the general principles presented in EFSA's 2011 guidance for 90-day whole-food/feed studies, describing technical details such as the choice of test materials, dose levels and environmental conditions for test animals. It also provides instructions on the collection, interpretation and reporting of data. The statement seeks to ensure consistency among the GM applications submitted to the Authority.
