bar code came into being, it can quickly and accurately identify species, has been widely used in life sciences, forensics, epidemiology, as well as medicine, food quality control and other fields. Herbal tea as a pure plant herbal formula drink, its raw materials from traditional herbs, however, herbs in the traditional identification method because of its own limitations can not be quickly identified, this time Wang Laoji pioneered the world's top gene bar code technology applied to plant beverages, so that Wang Laoji each raw material has a "gene ID card", it fundamentally solves this problem." The current domestic food safety situation is very serious, and food safety hot spot event focus has been from 'illegal addition' to 'process control', and then transferred to 'raw material safety' came up, 'the key to solve food safety problems is to control the source' has become the consensus of all sectors of society. Wang Laoji's application of gene bar code technology can effectively guarantee the authenticity and quality of raw materials from the source, which is undoubtedly a great boon to the vast number of consumers. Dai , executive vice president of the Guangdong Food Safety Society, said.National first provincial herbal tea engineering technology center was established it is understood that the launch announced the establishment of the Guangdong Province herbal tea engineering technology research center was earlier approved by the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Department, by Wang Laoji company lasted
6
years, through continuous exploration and research in scientific research, the final formation. It is not only the first in the country, but also the most advanced and highest level of herbal tea engineering and technology research center., as early as
2008
Wang Laoji company set up the first herbal tea key engineering technology research and development center, and received special funding from the Guangzhou Municipal Government.
over the past
years, the center has invested nearly 100 million yuan in basic research and technological innovation of herbal tea, including research on standardized cultivation and quality risk control of herbal tea raw materials, research on the basis and mechanism of action of herbal tea materials, research on herbal tea safety, research on herbal tea production and quality control, local standards for herbal tea and national standards, and achieved a number of leading domestic landmark achievements, winning
3,
provincial and ministerial government science and technology progress awards.

in 2013
, Wang Laoji company declared and successfully set up the Guangdong Engineering and Technology Research Center. Today, the technology research center was successfully established, can not be separated from Wang Laoji company this way of persistence and persistence." after the establishment of the research center, the future will become one of the important bases for domestic research work on herbal tea, Wang Laoji will continue to strengthen investment in scientific research, hand in hand with the research center to lead the scientific and technological progress of the herbal tea industry, in order to promote the development of the herbal tea industry, to achieve Wang Laoji herbal tea to the world and continuous efforts.
