INTRODUCTION
Science is developing and there are many modifications within food through using
chemicals and other modification which can include genetics can lead to create high impact on
the crop development. This may include various modification and variation that can allow to get
better and effective response for the higher productivity and includes different variation that
includes modification in the crop quality that can have high impact on the individual who
consume that product. In this, there is discussion about the controversy of Seralini affair that
includes difficulty in dealing with the food and chemical toxicology. In this, there is also
discussion about the controversial publication in food and chemical toxicology. There is also
some discussion about the issues and arguments through the short literature review. This also
includes the analysis of various ways through which case was presented within public about this
and communicated within he public against the scientific communication which was published
thorough out the peer reviewed literature. This essay also includes the retraction and
republication of the controversy review (Nepovimova, (2018)).
MAIN BODY
Food toxicology refers to an important consideration which may include the food chain
which may become more multination within origin. It may also include the contamination or
toxic manifestation which can lead to cause an adverse health impact and wide spread in nature.
While getting use of chemical to modified the crop for getting better and effective nutritional
food can lead to create the risk of getting food and chemical toxicology which can have harmful
impact on the individual that can lead to create and health related issues which includes tumours
or risk of cancer within the controversial article. Here, it is necessary to focus on the chemical
agents of the pesticides which are used and also ensure about safe genetic modification within
the crop. This may have high impact on the mechanism of action within living organism.
There is a Seralini affair which was one of the controversy within the publication,
republication and retraction. Here, first publication was about the Food and Chemical
Toxicology in September 2012. This was the article that present the two year feeding study
regarding rat which were reported to increase in the tumours within rats who were fed
genetically modified corn along with the herbicide Roundup. There was the controversy which
includes that there are many rats who were getting health related issues and facing tumours
