Background:

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods are established for detecting genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
Previous interlaboratory studies focused on quantitative GMO detection methods.
A qualitative PCR method for genetically modified soybean (RR soy) detection was developed.

Purpose of the Study:

To conduct an interlaboratory study to validate a qualitative PCR method for detecting Roundup Ready soy (RR soy).
To assess the sensitivity, specificity, and reliability of the qualitative method for GM soy detection.

Main Methods:

Fourteen laboratories participated in the study.
DNA was extracted from soybean samples containing 0%, 0.05%, and 0.10% RR soy.
Qualitative PCR was performed using primer pairs for an internal control gene (Le1) and RR soy, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis.

Main Results:

The internal control gene (Le1) was detected in all samples.
False-negative rates for RR soy detection were 6.0% at 0.05% and 2.3% at 0.10%.
The limit of detection (LOD) for the qualitative method was determined to be below 0.10% RR soy.

Conclusions:

The qualitative PCR method demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity for RR soy detection.
The method is practical and suitable for monitoring GM soy content in commercial soybean kernel lots.
This validation supports the use of qualitative PCR for regulatory compliance and food safety monitoring.
