Mission Statement

BioOK offers a complete portfolio of analytical procedures for risk assessment of genetically modified plants. It is a confederation of four companies and a Steinbeis Transfer Center. In some publicly funded research projects BioOK coorporates with the University of Rostock and the Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants (JKI).

The network aims to establish itself as leading service provider for analysis and risk assessment of genetically modified plants in Europe, where risk assessment is a prerequisite for market placement. The partners of BioOK hold longstanding experience in essential procedures for the assessment of food, feed, as well as pharmaceutical and pesticide safety. These methods will be adopted in order to analyse environmental and food/feed risks of genetically modified plants and to develop new, simple, standardised, and fast procedures fitting the requirements of the competent authorities (CA).
