A new research by a group of scientists reveal that genetically modified  transgenic maize is as safe and nutritious as the conventional  non-transgenic maize.

The research titled “A 90-day toxicity study of GmTMT transgenic maize  in Sprague-Dawley rats” was carried out by Jin Fang, Yongquan Feng, Yuan  Zhi, Lan Zhang, Zhou Yu and Xudong Jia.

Results from body weights, feed consumption, clinical chemistry,  hematology, absolute and relative organ weights showed no  treatment-related side effects of GmTMT maize grain on rats in  comparison with rats consuming diets containing Zhen58 (conventional)  maize grain.
