摘要
Two different PCR-based approaches for the quantitative analysis of genetically modified organism (GMO) - components in foods are presented using Soybean derived samples as an example. The first method - a double competitive PCR - is well suited to determine threshold levels of GMO content in food,The other - PCR on-line measurement - is suited to determine ratios of transgenic versus non-transgenic component. Both methods provide a means to alleviate the problems of standardisation encountered with simple qualitative PCR approaches and will allow to cope with threshold levels for GMO, once issued by legislative bodies.
