Sažetak
Genetically-modified organisms, especially including crops used for food production, are those that have bioengineered genes in their genomes for a variety of reasons including herbicide resistance, pest resistance, enhanced vitamin content and more. Due to the recent enactment of regulations in some countries requiring the disclosure of GMO content in foods, sophisticated systems of the DNA analysis from processed foods and their ingredients have been developed for detection and quantification of GMO content, even when the gene(s) is not expressed. Croatia has signed the Cartagena Protocol on Global Biosafety on September 8, 2001 and Croatian Parliament has ratified the Protocol on May 24, 2002. At present, the GMO matters are regulated through the GMO Act. Act is jointly enforced by the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Environmental Protection, Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, and the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports. Currently, only one certified testing laboratory serves the GMO testing needs of Croatia. Due to the intended Croatian approach toward the EU, it is likely to expect that Croatian lawmakers will strictly follow recommendations of the European Council.
