ISO/TS 21572-1 Qualitative ELISA for GMO Detection Laboratory Testing Service: A Comprehensive Guide

The ISO/TS 21572-1 standard is a technical specification that outlines the requirements for qualitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) testing for genetically modified organisms (GMOs). This standard is part of the ISO/TS 21572 series, which provides guidelines for GMO detection methods.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding GMO detection is governed by various international and national standards. The European Unions (EU) General Food Law Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 establishes the principles of food law, including the requirement for GMO testing. The EUs GMO legislation is based on the precautionary principle, which requires that GMOs be subject to rigorous safety assessments before they can be authorized for use in food and feed.

International Standards

The following international standards apply to ISO/TS 21572-1:

  • ISO 21572-1:2019 (Qualitative ELISA for GMO detection)

  • ISO 22005:2007 (Chain of custody)

  • ISO 17025:2018 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories)

    • National Standards

    The following national standards apply to ISO/TS 21572-1:

  • EUs GMO legislation (EC) No. 178/2002

  • EUs GMO authorization process (Regulation (EC) No. 1829/2003)

  • EUs labeling requirements for GMOs (Regulation (EC) No. 1830/2003)

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) are responsible for developing and maintaining standards related to GMO detection.

    Standard Evolution and Updates

    Standards evolve over time as new scientific knowledge and technologies become available. The ISO/TS 21572-1 standard has undergone several updates since its initial publication in 2019.

    Specific Standard Numbers and Scope
