Corn pests have always been a dilemma for farmers. Controlling pests is a problem because they cause harm in different places, at different times, and in different ways.. MIR162 is used in corn and cotton fields. This product (protein) is used in agriculture to control lepidopteran pests and a certain protein. MIR162 is used for both conventional corn and industrial purposes. Alternative methods for controlling the same type of pest have also proven suitable but less effective.
MIR162 maize is a genetically modified maize strain that expresses a protein. This type of corn controls pests and allows plant cells to use mannose as their primary carbon source. MIR162 also contains a gene from bacillus thuringiensis.
In our country, MIR162, which is a genetically modified corn type, has been allowed to be used as animal feed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.
In short, the MIR162 genetically modified corn strain produces its own insecticide and kills the insects that harm it, thanks to a bacterial gene added to its DNA.
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, there are MIR162 corn type determination and quantity analysis services.
