Genetically modified foods, is through genetic engineering techniques, one or several exogenous gene transfer to a specific organism, and it effectively express the corresponding product(peptides or proteins), this process is called transgenic. To genetically modified organisms as raw materials for food processing that genetically modified foods. In today’s context of rapid changes in technology, especially the development of high-tech biotechnology, affecting all aspects of human society, economy,politics and culture. GMO technology through a variety of plants, making GM crops have more excellent, stable biological traits and genetic traits instead of traditional crops,appeared in human life. GM food by genetic engineering techniques is one or more of exogenous gene transfer to a particular organism, and allowed to effectively express the corresponding product.GM food as an emerging biotechnology, food safety because of its uncertainty,especially the potential threat to human health, since it was born, it is safe to eat has been accompanied by controversy, has become the focus of attention. Due to genetically modified foods triggered lawsuits continue to emerge. In recent years, China has successively appeared "Nestle Qiao Ban Ban" suspected case of genetically modified rice and Heinz infant nutrition transgenic suspected cases are fully exposed our country on GM food safety management loopholes. China’s current legislative system safety aspects of GMOs is not perfect, the law does not specifically related to the development,accompanying regulations are not issued, genetically modified food legislation still is no effective method to follow the situation. GM food as something new appears on the end of the century, no longer confirm its safety, food is still some risk. So the state has the responsibility to force GM foods promulgated and implemented the relevant laws and regulations, effective response to public concern as to the legal protection of the public food safety.Countries or regions of the world have developed a corresponding law to regulate genetically modified food, in order to reduce the potential hazards of legal regulation of genetically modified foods, genetically modified foods in order to achieve safe and effective for national use. In order to promote the development of genetically modified food industry, the United States implemented a more lenient legal and regulatory regime,the EU strict regulatory system of genetically modified foods, Japan implemented acompromise legal regulatory system. Above the national legal system of transgenic foods,the maximum guarantee effective management of genetically modified foods.This article from the genetically modified food traceability to proceed, the necessity of legal regulation describes the theoretical and practical level, and through the analysis of other major countries in turn compare the world’s GM food safety legislative purpose and situation, combined with the legislative status quo related to our country, of our existing transgenic food safety legislation existing problems, explore building suitable for China genetically modified food safety legal framework proposed GM food safety legislative proposals for genetically modified legislation provide reference to achieve our transgenic technology and transgenic legislative parallel development of a good situation.
