Application of Sampling and Detection Methods in Agricultural Plant Biotechnology describes detection methods for seed, plants and grain derived from biotechnology. This international handbook, based on a series of workshops carried out for governments in collaboration with ILSI and Co-published in partnership with the Cereals & Grains Association, provides the technical and practical information needed to develop, validate and use detection methods. This useful resource provides readers with the tools necessary to carry out reliable sampling, detection and interpretation of data.
- Presents a review of the technologies and approaches used for sampling and detecting biotechnology products in seed, plants, grain, food and feed
- Serves as a GM detection manual for international regulators and government agencies, testing laboratories, and academic and industrial professionals
- Contains case studies, applications, literature reviews and coverage of recent developments
Academics and scientists working for agricultural biotechnology companies, within the seed and food and feed industries, GM test kit manufacturing companies, research and testing laboratories in the public and private sectors, and government agencies, as well as students studying related areas
