Detection and Cross Contamination Evaluation of Roundup Ready Soy via Mechanical Shear Homogenization

Genetically modified crop are food products that have had their DNA modified to introduce new traits such as resistance to pests, diseases or environmental conditions. In this application note, Round-up Ready® soy beans are homogenized so DNA can be purified and the Roundup resistant gene can be detected. This process is carried out using the GLH-850 by Omni International in order to evaluate its homogenization capabilities.
