Press Release: Séralini et al. study conclusions not supported by data, says EU risk assessment community

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), on 28 November 2012, delivered its final evaluation of a paper by Séralini et al. (published in the journal, 'Food and Chemical Toxicology' on 19 September 2012) which raised concerns about the potential toxicity of genetically modified (GM) maize NK603 and of a herbicide containing glyphosate. In particular, it suggested a link between exposure to these substances and an increased incidence of tumours in rats.
