The Importance of Crop Composition Why should food crops be analyzed? • Crop plants and their commodities such as oil, protein, and starch are the raw materials for the manufacture of food products • Nutrients derived from food crops are essential for normal growth and development • Compositional analysis helps to ensure a safe and plentiful food supply
Compositional Analysis Study • Are there differences between the GM crop and its non-GM comparator? – Key components selected for analysis (represent appropriate nutritional components and components of major metabolic pathways) • – Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) guidance documents • How similar is the GM crop to what is considered to be the conventional “safe” crop? – Substantial equivalence – Deviations beyond natural range may indicate fundamental changes in the plant (further evaluation may be needed) 5
