| Title: Premarket Notice Concerning Bioengineered Foods | |
| Abstract: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is requiring the submission to the agency of data and information regarding plant-derived bioengineered foods that would be consumed by humans or animals. FDA is requiring that this submission be made at least 120 days prior to the commercial distribution of such foods. FDA took this action to ensure that it has the appropriate amount of information about bioengineered foods to help to ensure that all market entry decisions by the industry are made consistently and in full compliance with the law. The action will permit the agency to assess on an ongoing basis whether plant-derived bioengineered foods comply with the standards of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. | |
