China's probiotic market size of 100 billion yuan bacteria safety and health evaluation has become the focus of attention.

. In recent years, China's probiotic market has expanded rapidly, in 2018 has formed nearly 100 billion yuan of industrial market. However, in the process of rapid development of probiotic industry, there are many problems such as improper use of probiotic concept, ambiguity of core strains and difficulty in scientific definition of functional properties. Recently held in Hangzhou, "the 14th International Symposium on Probiotics and Health", experts believe that the role of probiotics on health has individual differences, there is no "one size fits all" probiotic strains can be applied to everyone and all physical conditions. Therefore, the industry needs to strengthen consumer science education, clear probiotic "quantity" of scientific concepts, so that consumers rational choice of probiotic products.to strengthen scientific supervision of probiotic products
probiotics refer to living microorganisms that, when ingested in sufficient quantities, are beneficial to host health. At present, China's probiotic standards and regulations gradually improve, probiotic industry has become an important support for the health transformation of the food industry. Zhai Wei, vice president and secretary-general of the China Food Science and Technology Association, said that in recent years, the research on probiotics has gradually shifted from efficacy to its mechanism of action, making the research system of probiotics and human health more perfect. Probiotic industry has become one of the fastest growing nutritional health industries in the food industry.
Wan Chao, director of the Special Food Safety Supervision and Administration Department of the State Administration of Market Supervision, said that in the recently released Opinions of the Cpc Central Committee and the State Council on Deepening Reform and Strengthening Food Safety, it has been made clear that the two-track operation of health food registration and filing has been promoted. In the probiotic industry, we should pay attention to the following two aspects: on the one hand, how to standardize and strengthen the safety and effectiveness of probiotic products in the registration link; And this can not be separated from the two core elements, one is a clear definition of probiotic products. Through the construction of institutional regulations to probiotics have a clear limit to regulate the market, so that consumers more clearly and rationally aware of the development of the industry. Second, in terms of safety and efficacy, we should work towards the level of development based on strains, and study the safety and efficacy of strains, which is also the overall direction of the next development.
while the probiotic industry has become a hot "sunrise industry" and developed rapidly, we have to face some problems and challenges in the process of rapid growth of the industry. To this end, Wei suggested: First, to continue to strengthen the scientific basis of probiotics. Compared with foreign strains, there is still a big gap between the safety and functionality of domestic strains. The exploration of probiotic efficacy is a long-term, rigorous and scientific process, the research of probiotics needs to maintain a fixed force, avoid hollowing out probiotic science and technology. Second, the construction of the standard system of probiotic regulations needs to be coordinated with the innovation and development of the industry. It is necessary for the scientific and technological circles and industry to continuously promote the revision of the standard system of laws and regulations and improve the standard system of probiotic regulations in China. Third, probiotic products publicity needs strict norms. Strengthen public science and encourage consumers to choose probiotic products rationally.Probiotic industry focus on regulations, health evaluation, functional analysis
This conference set up probiotics and host health, probiotic functional analysis, probiotics, probiotics new technology and industrialization application of three topics, focusing on the topic of industry concern to conduct a full and in-depth discussion.
In recent years, the probiotic industry has made important progress in standard regulations, especially in the construction of probiotic health food regulations, the state regulatory agencies have clarified the positioning of probiotic health food, and actively promoted the registration and filing of dual-track construction. The Regulations on the Declaration and Review of Probiotic Health Food (Draft for Comments) which have recently been publicly solicited for comments have received much attention from all parties, and the newly revised draft clearly defines probiotics, and focuses the review of the safety and efficacy of probiotics on strains, gradually in line with international standards. At the same time, with the attention of 9 kinds of probiotics and 7 kinds of probiotics into the health food raw materials catalog research category. The conference discussed the new challenges of probiotic industry regulatory standards under the global regulatory landscape. Li Fengqin, director of the Microbiology Laboratory of the National Food Safety Risk Assessment Center, made a general report on the current research on the record management of health food raw materials (probiotics, probiotics) in China.
At present, more and more research recognizes that diet is an important factor affecting the intestinal flora, in which nutritional factors such as probiotics, phytochemicals, trace elements, etc., can play a probiotic function by regulating the intestinal flora, for this reason, Jiangnan University Vice President Chen Wei on the topic of "diet and flora: new targets for human health regulation and control" to make a general report. Researcher Yang Ruixuan, from the Institute of Microbiology Epidemiology of the Academy of Military Medical Sciences, shared his views with delegates on "the enlightenment of intestinal microbial research on the direction of next-generation probiotic research".
, food-related probiotic products mainly include fermented dairy products, beverages, health food, candy snacks four categories. According to the relevant statistical reports, in recent years, plant-based probiotic fermentation products are entering the mainstream consumer field, more and more large-scale development and industrialization of plant protein fermentation strains, plant-based probiotic products development has become a new innovation trend of industry concern. This meeting focuses on new developments in probiotic innovation. The diversification of probiotics and the localization of strains have always been the bottleneck of industrial development that must be solved in Our country, and have been paid great attention to by the industry. Zhang Lanwei, a special professor at China Ocean University, made a general report on the excellent characteristics of lactic acid bacteria and the key technical research on the industrialization and development of highly active products.
