studies on the medical and biological safety of 14 species of
genetically modified plant-derived organisms (GMOs). The authors
focus on issues in GMO production and world output, specifically
the basic legislative regulations of modern biotechnology in the
Russian Federation. Also covered are international approaches to
the medical and biological assessment of safety and control of the
food produced from genetically modified organisms. A special
chapter is devoted to the problem of informational coverage of
novel biological technologies.
Previously available only in a 2007 Russian-language edition
published by the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, this English
translation has been completely revised and updated to include the
latest developments in regulations and human and animal safety
assessment practices.
The book is addressed to a wide community of specialists working
in the fields of food science, plant genetics, and food safety as
well as medicine and biology. Students and postgraduates focusing
on the problems of modern biotechnology and biological safety will
find it a valuable guide to these topics.
