This report describes the tasks performed in the period 1/3/2017 to 27/11/2018 under the EFSA contract OC/EFSA/GMO/2014/01, Lot 2 on toxicological studies and animal feeding studies included in applications for market authorisation of genetically modified feed/plants under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003. The tasks cover the check for study adherence to relevant EFSA guidance documents and to OECD Test Guideline no 407 (1995/2008), OECD Test Guideline no 408 (1998) and OECD Principles on Good Laboratory Practice. During the period covered by this report, preparatory work has been performed on six applications for GM plants submitted under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 for a total of three 28-day studies on newly expressed proteins and six 90-day studies in rodents on GM food/feed, using comprehensive checklist templates. © National Food Institute, DTU, 2019
