GM crops have great potential to improve food quality, increase harvest yields and decrease dependency on certain chemical pesticides. Before entering the market their safety needs to be scrutinized. This includes a detailed analysis of allergenic risks, as the safety of allergic consumers has high priority. However, not all tests currently being applied to assessing allergenicity have a sound scientific basis. Recent events with transgenic crops reveal the fallacy of applying such tests to GM crops.
转基因作物在改善食品质量、提高产量以及减少对某些化学杀虫剂的依赖方面具有巨大潜力。在进入市场之前，其安全性需要进行仔细审查。这包括对致敏风险进行详细分析，因为过敏消费者的安全至关重要。然而，目前并非所有用于评估致敏性的测试都有坚实的科学依据。最近转基因作物引发的事件揭示了将此类测试应用于转基因作物的谬误。
