BIO Guidance for Genetically Engineered Animal Stewardship

This Guidance addresses stewardship of GE animals through the life cycle of animals and animal products, addressing engineered-derived traits that could be present in the environment, food, feed, or products for human health, industrial, or consumer applications. It is being designed to provide guidelines for each stage of the animal and animal product lifecycles, from initial research and development through commercialization, post-market monitoring and discontinuation and (or) product recall activities.
