歐盟評估一種轉基因大豆的安全性

　　2019年7月5日，歐盟食品安全局（EFSA）發布消息，歐盟食品安全局轉基因生物小組（GMO Panel）評估了轉基因大豆MON 87708 × MON 89788 × A5547‐127用作食品和飼料的安全性。

　　經過評估，GMO小組得出結論，這種轉基因大豆及其常規對應品種和經測試的非轉基因參考品種一樣安全。

　　部分原文報道如下：

　　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.
