This study shows that the nested PCR method developed
by Meyer and Jaccaud (1997) is adequate to determine
the presence of GM soybean in samples of soybean
flour, soymilk powder and infant formula containing
protein isolate.
This nested PCR method could be employed to distinguish
GM from nonGM products, because the legal
