Call for comment on food made from a new type of genetically modified corn

Call for comment on food made from a new type of genetically modified corn Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is calling for comment on an application to permit the sale and use of food made from a new genetically modified (GM) corn. FSANZ CEO Dr Sandra Cuthbert said corn line DP910521 was genetically modified to provide it with herbicide tolerance and protection from insect pests. “If approved, food made from this type of GM corn could be imported into Australia and New Zealand in the form of starch, grits, meal, flour, oil and sweetener," Dr Cuthbert said. She said safety assessments are a key part of the approval process for all GM foods. “Our safety assessment considered the specific genetic modification process, the nutrient content compared to a non-GM food of its type, and any potential allergic or toxic effects in…

Uncertainty and limitations

Uncertainty and limitations General limitations of food composition data AUSNUT 2011-13 has been developed specifically for use with the 2011-13 Australian Health Survey (AHS) and therefore may not be appropriate to use with other surveys or for other purposes. When using or comparing nutrient data across surveys, consideration must be given to survey methods and operations such as questionnaire wording, data processing methods, and the way foods and nutrients are reported in the survey database. Nutrient data presented in AUSNUT 2011-13 should be regarded as approximations of the likely nutrient content of the food or beverage to which they refer. This is because the nutrient composition of foods is variable and dependent on a range of factors. There are inherent…

Assigning NNPAS foods to ADG classifications

Assigning NNPAS foods to ADG classifications   Every coded food in the 2011-12 NNPAS has been allocated to one of the following three areas in the ADG classification system:   1.
