Abstrakt: |
Steroidal sex hormones and synthetic derivatives are used in the US to enhance growth in food-producing animals. The European Economic Community has banned use of these same substances, reportedly on the grounds of food safety. The US maintains that this ban was and is a disguised restriction on trade. The technical grounds for bringing this case and the impact of the findings of the World Trade Organization on the regulation of animal drugs in the US is discussed. |
