Screening for Genetically Modified Organisms in Food Using Promega's
Wizard® Resin
By Brent Spoth, Ph.D. and Ethan Strauss, Ph.D.
Promega Corporation
Genetically modified organisms (GMOs), primarily in the form of plant material,
have become available in the world food markets with ever increasing abundance. Because of
public concern over the safety of GMOs, individual countries and coalitions such as the
European Union (EU) have instituted labeling requirements for all foods containing any
amount of GMO products. The method presented here allows detection of small amounts of
GMOs present in food shipments.
