Construction of Traceability System for Food Safety Inspection

Abstract:

Metrological traceability is very important for ensuring data validity of food safety inspection. The validity of inspection results was evaluated according to the contribution of different traceability factors based on the establishment of traceability system for food safety inspection. The appropriate control level was established and the quantitative traceability model was proposed in the fields of food physics and chemistry, microbiology and molecular biology. According to the traceability model, the important traceability elements, such as reference material, important equipment, and hierarchy schemes were assessed, analyzed and studied on the common inspection parameters/items and method standards used in the food safety inspection laboratories, forming a metrological traceability data frame and constructing the software system platform of the food safety testing measurement traceability. It's expected to provide a data-sharing platform for food safety inspection laboratory and establish a scientific and systematic metrological traceability system of food safety inspection.
