Statement on the safety of MON810 maize pollen occurring in or as food
Abstract In this statement the EFSA GMO Panel responds to a request from the European Commission on whether data provided within application RX‐MON810 on maize MON810 are sufficient to conclude on the safety of MON810 pollen as or in food and, if it is the case, to confirm MON810 pollen safety.
