Dear Members and Colleagues
This is to announce the 11th ISTA Proficiency Test on GMO
Testing, on Canola/Oil Seed Rape (Brassica sp.).
Since GMO testing has been included in the ISTA Accreditation
Programme, the participation in the ISTA Proficiency Tests on
GMO Testing is compulsory for those laboratories which have GMO
testing methods in their scope of accreditation.
The ISTA Proficiency Test on GMO Testing is also open to any
other laboratory involved in GM seed testing. Your laboratory
can select the method appropriate to detect the presence or
absence of GM seeds and to quantify their presence in samples of
conventional seeds.
Laboratories interested in participating should please send a
completed registration form to the ISTA Secretariat by November
21, 2008.
The registration form and a detailed announcement can be found
on the ISTA Website under the following link

or

We look forward to receiving your registration.
