Color is not claimed as a feature of the mark.
The certification mark, as intended to be used by persons authorized by the certifier, is intended to certify that a product, when the mark is affixed, is a bioengineered food in that the food contains genetic material that has been modified through in vitro recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) techniques, and for which the modification could not otherwise be obtained through conventional breeding or found in nature.
The mark consists of a circular shield, with the phrase "BE" in upper case letters approximately centered on the shield, with a stem, two-leaf, and four-pointed stellate element above the phrase and connected to the letter "E" in the phrase.
