Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authority under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) to ensure the safety and wholesomeness of most foods, except meat and poultry, including foods developed through modern biotechnology. In 1990, FDA issued the first regulation for the use of a recombinant DNA-produced food ingredient, fermentation-derived chymosin (rennet). In 1992, FDA published a policy statement that explains how foods and animal feeds derived from new plant varieties developed by both conventional and new breeding techniques are regulated under the Act. The 1992 policy provides "guidance to industry" that established a standard of care for assuring safety and wholesomeness. This discussion will summarize FDA 's policy and illustrate how the policy was applied by the agency in reaching decisions on chymosin and on the Flavr Savr tomato.ABSTRACT: Use of electronic commerce methods which have become the new trade form of information age in foreign trade, realize of the activities such as international marketing, advertising with business contacts related to import and export in electronic media, give important opportunities for developing of Turkey’s foreign trade. This study aims to present the problems of exporters and importers in Turkey which they encounter in e-foreign trade and solution offers concerning these

This study aims to present the problems of exporters and importers in Turkey which they encounter in e-foreign trade and solution offers concerning these problems. In this context, primarily definition and scope of e-foreign trade with the encountered problems in e-foreign trade have analyzed conceptually; then a research which is about the problems of the firms that make e-foreign trade in food sector in Turkey has been given.
