English Abstract At the request of the Board of the National Institute
of Public Health and Environmental Protection, the Institute working party
"Toxicology of Biotechnological Products" made an inventory on the issue of
consumers safety of food products prepared with new biotechnological
techniques (recombinant-DNA, cell fusion, micro-injection, etc.). The
potential oral toxicity of these food products and their interrelated health
risks are considered. A distinction is drawn between four fields of
attention: vegetable food products, food products of animal origin, starter
cultures/microbially prepared food products, and finally enzyme preparations
used in the preparation of food products.
