On the 3rd, the author learned from the Huizhou Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau that the national key laboratory for food supply to Hong Kong established by the bureau has been able to test more than 900 items, ensuring "zero incidents" of food supply to Hong Kong.
As a major agricultural city in the Pearl River Delta region close to Hong Kong, Huizhou is an important production base for food and agricultural products supplied to Hong Kong from the mainland, mainly providing fresh vegetables, live pigs, fresh frozen pork, fresh milk, eggs and egg products. At present, there are 135 enterprises in Huizhou related to supplying to Hong Kong. In 2016, the total amount of food and agricultural products supplied by Huizhou to Hong Kong reached 16,000 batches, 126,000 tons, and 190 million US dollars. Among them, two categories ranked first in the province, namely cooked poultry and fresh frozen pork, accounting for about 60% and 50% of the province's share of supply to Hong Kong, respectively. In addition, live pigs, fresh frozen poultry, and egg products also account for a larger share.
According to the person in charge of the Huizhou Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, in order to ensure the safety of food supplied to Hong Kong, the bureau has established a national key laboratory for the detection of food supplied to Hong Kong. It is the first laboratory in Huizhou to be accredited by the national food inspection agency. It has a total of 23 inspectors and is equipped with more than 600 sets of high-precision equipment with a total value of more than 35 million yuan. The testing scope of the laboratory includes food, cosmetics, animal products, aquatic products, agricultural and sideline products, food additives, water quality, soil, Chinese medicinal materials, etc. It can detect microorganisms, pesticide and veterinary drug residues, food additives, heavy metals, genetically modified ingredients, illegal drugs, etc. A variety of projects, the annual inspection batch of more than 8,300 batches. Including the National Key Laboratory of Food Testing for Hong Kong, the Bureau has 12 professional testing laboratories. The person in charge said that he will continue to increase investment in capital, personnel and equipment, strengthen cooperation with various functional departments and related enterprises, and make every effort to ensure the safety of food supplied to Hong Kong.
Editor's comment: The centralized food safety supervision model and higher safety standards in Hong Kong have forced the food supply to Hong Kong to improve the safety factor. Therefore, it can be said that Hong Kong has higher requirements for the safety and quality of food supplied to Hong Kong. Foods supplied to Hong Kong urgently need high-precision instruments and equipment for strict testing. It is understood that the food supplied to Hong Kong is mainly supplied by the mainland, and the safety rate of food supplied to Hong Kong has reached 99.999%, which has achieved success in Hong Kong. This model can also be used in the mainland, and perhaps the supervision of food supplied to Hong Kong can be directly implemented in the country.
