Genetically modified 鈥淪tarlink鈥� corn probably didn鈥檛 trigger allergic
reactions reported by dozens of Americans after the corn got into human food,
says the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. Starlink
contains a pesticide protein called Cry9C and was only approved for animal feed.
But last September the protein turned up in taco shells. The CDC tested the
blood of 17 people who reported health problems but found no antibodies against
Cry9C. But some are not convinced. 鈥淭here鈥檚 no way a credible scientist could
rule out Cry9C as a potential human allergen,鈥� says Rebecca Goldburg of the
Environmental Defense Fund.
