  Personally I'd much rather make an 
  informed choice to digest an experimental vaccine in unknown dosage (a 
  vaccine which is really meant to be injected in measured doses), a 
  vaccinethat messes with one's immune system and therefore will have 
  unknown consequences, than to have it foisted upon me 
  accidentally...
  
  And perhaps you'd enjoy eating 
  industrial adhesive, but I'll pass...

[CTRL] US Won't Say Which Pharmaceutical GM Crop Escaped

 US Won't Say Which
 Pharmaceutical GM Crop Escaped
 Mysterious Pharmaceutical GM
 Crop Goes Wrong in the US
   Friends of the Earth International (Amsterdam)
News Release
   11-21-2

 BRUSSELS -- US Authoritites unwilling as of today to
report which
 Genetically Modified Pharmaceutical maize was found in
the food chain

 The United States food chain has been contaminated by
Genetically
 Modified (GM) maize plants used to produce a
pharmaceutical or
 industrial chemical but US authorities are unwilling as
of today to
 disclose what the mysterious GM Pharmaceutical maize is
that was
 found for the first time among food crops in two US
States (Iowa and
 Nebraska).

 Friends of the Earth is seeking urgent reassurance from
the European
 Commission that food in Europe has not been
contaminated. The
 company that produced the maize, Prodigene, carries out
a range of
 outdoor tests on crops containing pharmaceuticals and
industrial
 products in at least 96 locations in the US.

 The ProdiGene incidents reportedly frustrated the US
food industry,
 which stated on Thursday Nov. 14 that biotech companies
need to
 change which crops they have chosen to make drugs and
industrial
 products.

 This was an accident waiting to happen. If you grow GM
crops outdoors
 then they will eventually contaminate the rest of the
food chain. We are
 seeking urgent reassurances that food imported into
Europe has not
 been contaminated, said Adrian Bebb, GM Campaigner at
Friends of
 the Earth.

 The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced on
Tuesday Nov.
 12 that it quarantined over $2.7 million worth of soya
beans (500,000
 tonnes) destined for human consumption at a Nebraska
grain elevator
 after finding parts of ProdiGene's GM maize mixed with
the soya beans.
 They later ordered their destruction.

 USDA authorities, who refuse to reveal the chemical or
drug genetically
 engineered in the GM maize, also claim that a similar
incident happened
 last year involving the same company. The soya crop was
planted and
 harvested on the same site where a GM pharmaceutical
maize was
 grown on the previous year. Seeds dropped by the maize
grew this year
 and contaminated the soya crop.

 Friends of the Earth, as part of a wider US coalition,
warned the US
 Government earlier this year that this could happen. The
coalition is
 now filing a legal petition demanding an immediate halt
to the outdoor
 growing of pharmaceutical GM crops.

 Research into the company involved, Prodigene, reveals
that the
 contamination could be one of the following :

 * AIDS vaccine gp120 -- a glycoprotein

 * Blood-clotting agent -- Aprotinin

 * Trypsin - Digestive enzyme that can be used in leather
tanning or to
 produce insulin.

 * Industrial adhesive Laccase -- an enzyme derived from
a fungus

 Other pharmaceutical GM crops reportedly grown by
ProdiGene include
 experimental oral vaccines for hepatitis B and for a pig
disease,
 transmissible gastroenteritis. According to USDA records
ProdiGene
 has received 85 test permits for experimental open-air
trials of
 pharmaceutical GM crops and chemical crops for planting
in at least 96
 locations.

 Once you start genetically engineering drugs and
chemicals into crop
 plants then you really are opening Pandoraâs box. The
consequences
 could be catastrophic, said Adrian Bebb of GM Campaigner
at Friends
 of the Earth. mpty body
