2019年7月5日,欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)发布消息,欧盟食品安全局转基因生物小组(GMO Panel)评估了转基因大豆MON 87708 × MON 89788 × A5547‐127用作食品和饲料的安全性。
经过评估,GMO小组得出结论,这种转基因大豆及其常规对应品种和经测试的非转基因参考品种一样安全。
部分原文报道如下:
Soybean MON 87708 × MON 89788 × A5547‐127 (three‐event stack soybean) was produced by conventional crossing to combine three single events: MON 87708, MON 89788 and A5547‐127. The GMO Panel previously assessed the three single events and did not identify safety concerns. No new data on the single events, leading to modification of the original conclusions on their safety have been identified. The molecular characterisation, comparative analysis (agronomic, phenotypic and compositional characteristics) and the outcome of the toxicological, allergenicity and nutritional assessment indicate that the combination of the single soybean events and of the newly expressed proteins in the three‐event stack soybean does not give rise to food and feed safety and nutritional concerns. The GMO Panel concludes that the three‐event stack soybean, as described in this application, is as safe as and nutritionally equivalent to its conventional counterpart and the non‐GM reference varieties tested.
