"Pairwise introduces a gene-edited salad [sic] created in Durham"
"Can fruits and vegetables be made better? With gene editing, Durham firm believes so."
I didn't know that "gene-edited foods do not have to carry identifying labels." 😲

Behind an academic paywall:
Science snipes at #Oxitec transgenic-mosquito trial
by Nidhi Subbaraman
Nature Biotechnology volume 29, pages 9–10 (2011)
"#Oxitec's plans for transgenic #mosquito trials have not been without controversy in the past. They have been criticized by environmental groups, such as Ottawa-based #ETCGroup and #EcoNexus of Oxford, concerned about the risks of releasing an entirely new strain of organism into the environment".

Environmental groups relieved as release of GE mosquitoes avoided in #California
In what some environmental groups call a ‘major win,’ the release of genetically engineered (GE) mosquitoes in California has been averted, at least for now. The company behind the project, Oxitec, has voluntarily withdrawn its application to release these mosquitoes, which had been funded by the Bill Gates Foundation.

To create an egg that will not offend
It's completely free of the allergen ovomucoid
For the people who have an egg allergy void
Though testing is still needed to make sure it's safe
We can look forward to an egg we can consume with grace

Great job @deutschewelle.
