The glufosinate tolerant LLCotton25 cotton strain, a genetically modified cotton strain, has been registered for cultivation, food, feed and processing in many countries, including European Union countries. The LLCotton25 strain is imported, stored and processed in these countries in the same way as other conventional, non-transgenic cotton for use in food, animal feeding and industrial products. The LLCotton25 cotton strain is no different than the conventional cotton available on the market today.
The genetically modified LLCotton25 cotton strain is tolerant to the action of glufosinate ammonium herbicides, as it contains a gene from the bacterium Streptomyces hygroscopicus, which produces a protein that confers the glufosinate ammonium tolerant trait.
In the analysis of research and test results, it has been determined and confirmed that the release of genetically modified LLCotton25 cotton does not endanger biodiversity or human, animal and plant health.
In our country, an examination conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs concluded that LLCotton 25 cotton variety poses no risk when used as feed, food (refined oil), or cotton fiber. However, the decision did not state that it would not have undesirable effects on human and animal health.
In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. These studies are based on the latest technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and modern methods. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, LLCotton25 cotton type determination and quantity analysis services are also available.
