General Administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine

Source: International Online (Beijing) on November 10, 2015, learned from AQSIQ that China's inspection and quarantine reform of imported animal and plant-based biomaterials has achieved certain results The speed of imported biomaterials has increased significantly, and the volume of trade has increased significantly, which has promoted the development of China's biological industry and enhanced the strength of product research and development Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and the Yangtze River Delta are the two main bases of China's biomedical industry, as well as the main ports for the import of animal and plant derived biomaterials The total import proportion exceeds 80% of the national total %According to the specific situation of the two places, AQSIQ has successively carried out the reform of industrial research mechanism with Shanghai Zhangjiang High Tech Park as the pilot and the reform of comprehensive supervision mechanism with Beijing Zhongguancun Life Science Park as the pilot The reform measures mainly include authorizing the inspection and Quarantine Bureau directly under the pilot to complete the entry examination and approval of the relevant low-risk animal and plant source biological materials in advance; shortening the examination and approval time and writing off the licenses in batches, and extending the validity of the licenses from 6 months to 12 months, from one time to multiple times Dou Shulong, director of animal and plant quarantine and supervision department of AQSIQ, said, "before, we could only import one batch of animals with instructions for each license In this way, this batch of licenses would be abandoned if they were used up Now we allow verification and cancellation For example, if I applied for 100 mice for one license, I can use 10 for each batch The second way is to bring it back, so that it can meet the needs of flexibility for biological research " Some achievements have been made in the reform, which has significantly improved the speed of the import of biological materials by enterprises and scientific research institutions, significantly increased the volume of trade, and significantly saved human and material resources According to statistics, from January to October 2015, the Beijing Shanghai Bureau and the Shanghai Bureau completed more than 3200 related animal and plant inspection and approval, accumulatively saving 27000 working days for enterprises It is effective to promote the development of biological industry and enhance the strength of production and research Dr Huang song of Beijing Institute of Life Sciences said, "after the new policy was settled, the frequency of test turnover has greatly increased Laboratory reagents and model animals that used to take 2-3 months to get are now only 2-3 We can get it in our hands every week Now the examination and approval time is shortened, and the right to examine and approve tests is also delegated to local bureaus In this way, the examination and approval time is shortened from 20 working days to 3 working days In addition, when we get it, we can test while isolating, so that the whole process greatly improves our efficiency " In the next step, AQSIQ will summarize the successful experience of Shanghai Zhangjiang High Tech Park and Beijing Life Science Park / Beijing Tianjin Hebei pilot project in time, and promote in the whole country in 2016 to further improve the level of customs clearance facilitation of imported animal and plant derived biological materials, and promote the scientific and healthy development of biological medicine industry.
