🔎 #DARWIN_NGT will develop new labelling approaches in the #agrifood system to meet EU policy goals, respond to global challenges and ensure #traceability and transparency across #foodchain.

#Darwin_Glossary #foodsafety

#DARWIN_NGT presents three cases to validate #NGT products in real-world scenarios with industry and law enforcement, aiming for regulatory compliance and showcasing solutions for NGT organisms in the EU #agrifood market.

"The labelling of food products is essential to inform consumers what kind of products they are buying. EU harmonised rules on #foodlabelling, presentation and advertising aim to protect consumers and facilitate trade inside and outside Europe."

"The technique of #DNA fingerprinting was developed in 1984 by British geneticist Alec Jeffreys, after he noticed that certain sequences of highly variable DNA, which do not contribute to the functions of genes, are repeated within genes."

Any doubt about the food system's terminology?
We created the #Darwin_Glossary to dispel some doubts and support the understanding of the project's thematic.

Let's start with some basics, in the context of the #DARWIN_NGT project:
