Sun Wei, Professor of the Biotechnology Center of the Institute of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese Academy of Sciences, introduced the application of DNA barcode technology in plant extracts and health products to the participants; Yuan Fang, associate professor of the school of food, China Agricultural University, launched the latest research Achievements - steady state and transmission system of key components in plants Experts from key enterprises in China also introduced the management of new food raw materials, the application of ultrasonic technology in plant extraction, the production technology of fish skin collagen peptide, the purification and preparation research of natural astaxanthin from plants, the extraction technology and function evaluation of seabuckthorn proanthocyanidins, the product development ideas of plant extracts and natural food additives to the participants Rong The academic exchange of the annual meeting shows that China's natural extract industry is in a gratifying stage of rapid development from the perspectives of laws and regulations, production technology, extraction technology and equipment, product purification and optimization, and new product development Xue Yi made a summary of the meeting He said that at present, the development momentum of the industry is very good While enterprises in the industry generally attach importance to technology and R & D innovation, everyone should also pay attention to product safety issues, and actively cooperate to jointly promote the improvement of laws and standards of natural extract products The association will also give full play to its role as a bridge to build a platform for communication and communication for the industry, so as to promote mutual communication among all units in the industry, broaden their horizons and ideas, actively promote the improvement of regulatory standards and management systems, advocate and implement industry integrity and self-discipline, create a good and orderly production and operation environment for the industry, and promote the healthy development of the industry The meeting believed that China's natural extract industry started late, but developed rapidly If we can solve the common problems restricting the development of the industry, the industry will get further healthy and rapid development At present, there are two main problems that need to be solved urgently: first, laws and standards Many varieties of natural extract products are not included in the list of food additives and new food raw materials, so it is impossible to formulate national standards, which causes great difficulties to the production and industry development of enterprises Therefore, we should try our best to solve the problem of food ingredient standard such as natural extract as soon as possible Second, it is urgent to solve the technological innovation of natural extract At present, many researches and explorations have been carried out in related research institutions, colleges and universities and some enterprises in China, and some achievements have been made, but they are still in a decentralized state In the future, through the platform of association and professional committee, we should focus on scientific research and production, integrate production, learning and research, carry out large-scale research, and promote the promotion and development of the industry The natural extract industry has great development potential and prospect It is hoped that the enterprises and researchers engaged in this industry will make joint efforts to promote the further development of this emerging industry, so as to meet the strong demand of food and health food industry.
