ISO/TS 21569-2 is the second part of a multi-series that specifies a procedure for the detection of a DNA sequence present in a genetically modified linseed (Linum usitatissimum) line (event FP967, also named as “CDC Triffid”).
ISO/TS 21569-2 is applicable for the analysis of DNA extracted from foodstuffs. It can also be suitable for the analysis of DNA extracted from other products such as feedstuffs and seeds. The application of this method requires the extraction of an adequate amount of amplifiable DNA from the relevant matrix for the purpose of analysis.
ISO/TS 21569-2 on the real-time PCR method for analysis on GMO’s is relevant to:
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test qualifies and quantifies genetically modified organisms (GMO) present in food or feed samples.
Under ISO/TS 21569-2, DNA is extracted from the test sample applying a suitable method. The DNA analysis consists of two parts:
The method has been validated in a collaborative study coordinated by the German Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL), in accordance with the IUPAC protocol.
With the necessary guidance and compliance to ISO/TS 21569, you can explore the safety levels of GMO and derived products and consequently avoid cross-contamination risks.
