    (Professor Marcello Buiatti, Italy)

    The products of genetic engineering today are still at the level of dinosaur

    technology. We use genes which are foreign to a species, not knowing where they

    are inserted or what else will change in the whole chain from gene to protein.

    (Dr Cesare Gessler, Switzerland)

    So I think that we should bear in mind that the study is far below the level of

    sufficiency to be able to predict any toxicity or any unintended effect of a

    plant. (Professor Gilles-Eric Seralini, France)

    It would be nice if there was a greater humility and more experts would admit

    the limits of their knowledge. (Dr Richard Firn, UK)

    Interviews with nine scientists about the risk from genetically manipulated

    The human genome has approximately 30,000 so called coding genes and

    "ambiguity - more proteins coded by a single gene - is very high.

    these can code for more than 500,000 different proteins. Therefore, gene
