- Abstract
Corn and soybeans have the largest area of GM crops in the world. Milk powder and baby food are processed foods that contain corn and soybeans,therefore, monitoring transgenic corn and soy in processed food has been investigated in several studies.In this study, 40 samples of baby food and milk powder were collected from pharmacies and supermarkets in Tehran. All the samples were extracted using Azmaelixir DNA kit. Internal control genes for soy (Lectin) and corn (Zein) were checked to ensure the extraction. Then, the presence of CaMV35Stransgenic Promoter was checked by Real -time PCR technique. The results showed the presence of this sequence in 2.5% of baby food samples and 10% of samples in infant formula. The preliminary results of this study suggest more investigation and monitoring is necessary for the possible labeling of these products.
