After a long awaited study federal scientists conclude that meat and milk from cloned animals is safe to eat and is allowed to enter the food supply chains without any special labeling.
The finding is a strong signal that Food and Drug Association (FDA) will allow the cloned food in markets after its approval.
Cloning animals is currently too expensive, but framers could clone top quality animals for breeding. Offspring of those clones could then enter the food supply chain without labeling, the findings imply. Cloning: it is a science involved in making the exact genetic copy of an organism, tends to produce a higher proportion of miscarried embryos and abnormal offspring than traditional reproduction.
But FDA has found that cloned animals that survive infancy seem to be as healthy as other animals and food from them is safe.
