Moolec Science achieves USDA approval for plant-grown animal proteins

Moolec Science announced that the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, or APHIS, of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, or USDA, has concluded its Regulatory Status Review, or RSR, for Moolec’s genetically engineered, or GE, soybean Piggy Sooy. The USDA-APHIS RSR determines that Moolec’s genetically engineered soybean, accumulating animal meat protein, is unlikely to pose an increased plant pest risk relative to non-engineered soybeans. Therefore, it is not subject to the APHIS regulation that governs the movement of organisms modified or produced through genetic engineering.
