Dr Tudisco: Heart Changes in Rabbits from GM Soy
The presence of DNA fragments in tissues from rabbits given genetically modified (GM) soya-bean meal was investigated in this University of Naples study by using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) approach. (more…)
Dr Malatesta: GM Soy Increases Liver Ageing Process in Mice
This University of Verona study demonstrates that GM soybean intake can influence some liver features during ageing and, although the mechanisms remain unknown, underlines the importance to investigate the long-term consequences of GM-diets and the potential synergistic effects with ageing,

Russian Government Institute: Infertility in Hamsters from GM Soy
The experiment carried out jointly by the Russian National Association for Gene Security and the Institute of Ecological and Evolutional Problems showed that Campbell Hamsters lost the ability to reproduce after being fed GM soy for 2 years. (more…)
Dr Vecchio: Changes in Mouse Testes from GM Soy
This research carried out at the University of Pavia considered the possible effects of a diet containing genetically modified (GM) soybean on mouse testes. Changes that could cause infertility problems in the mice testes were identified and the role
