RISK ASSESSMENT
Two-generation Reproduction Study to Assess the Effects of Transgenic Bt Rice TT51 on Reproductive Function in Rats (pdf Full ISB report)
Er Hui Wang, Zhou Yu, Hai Bin Xu
A two-generation reproduction study compared the effects of feeding transgenic Bt rice, grown for insect management, to its non-Bt isoline on reproductive function in rats. The aim of the study was to determine the potential reproductive effects of TT51, a new type of transgenic Bt rice currently under development in China. Until now only a small number of studies have reported reproductive toxicity evaluations of transgenic crops. No detailed data concerning the effects of long term exposure to this transgenic Bt rice TT51 is available. Thus, this two-generation reproduction study was designed to evaluate the potential effects of TT51 rice on reproductive and developmental parameters in rats.
