食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)美聯(lián)社消息,近日美國兩黨參議員就轉(zhuǎn)基因標識問題達成一致,或要求含轉(zhuǎn)基因配料食品標注轉(zhuǎn)基因標識,具體規(guī)定將于2年內(nèi)出臺。
在此之前,美國佛蒙特州出臺轉(zhuǎn)基因標識法案,要求轉(zhuǎn)基因食品標注“采用轉(zhuǎn)基因生產(chǎn)”(“produced with genetic engineering.)。然而本次一致通過的方案較為寬松,僅需加注轉(zhuǎn)基因標識即可,可以為一個文本標識,一個圖標或者智能手機上的電子標識。美國農(nóng)業(yè)部會在2年內(nèi)出臺具體規(guī)定。
部分原文報道如下:
WASHINGTON (AP) - Senators have a bipartisan deal to require labeling of genetically modified ingredients nationally, a week before a labeling law in Vermont goes into effect.
The deal announced Thursday by the top Republican and Democrat on the Senate Agriculture Committee would require the nationwide labeling of genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, in packaged foods for the first time. But it would be more lenient than Vermont's law, allowing food companies to use a text label, a symbol or electronic label accessed by smartphone. Vermont's law would require items to be labeled ”produced with genetic engineering.“
