Monsanto Cries Foul
This morning (January 26, 2007), Monsanto placed this
story on PR Newswire claiming that new studies show that
there is no difference in concentrations of bST, IGF-I,
or other hormones in milk from cows treated with the
genetically engineered bovine growth hormone.

Furthermore, Monsanto claims that milk marketing
companies are misleading consumers by implying that
milk from untreated cows is healthier than milk from
rbST-treated cows (rbGH-treated cows.)
I immediately called and left messages for two MonsaNto
scientists, John Vicini (head of the dairy division) and
Andrew Burtelst (314-694-4452).
Upon receipt of Monsanto's new study, I will analyze
these data upon which Monsanto bases that claim and
get back to you shortly thereafter.
