During the meeting

On November 13, 2020, the "2020 Edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia" Chinese Medicine Pesticide Residue Testing Methods and Liquid Chromatography Application Technology Exchange Conference "was successfully held in Bozhou City, Anhui Province. The conference was hosted by the Bozhou Food and Drug Inspection Center, hosted by the Bozhou Pharmaceutical Association, and co organized by Acchrom-Tech. The purpose of this meeting is to enhance the ability to detect pesticide residues in traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces and improve the efficiency of traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece inspection. At the same time, the issue of using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography to improve detection efficiency and compliance under the new pharmacopoeia was explained. Geng Wusong, Director of the Food and Drug Inspection Center in Bozhou City, Anhui Province, and Secretary General of the Bozhou Pharmaceutical Association, attended the meeting and gave an overview of the detection of pesticide residues in traditional Chinese medicine and the application of ultra-high performance liquid chromatography in the new pharmacopoeia. At the same time, more than 300 people including quality related personnel from traditional Chinese medicine enterprises in Bozhou City, Anhui Province also attended the meeting.

Dealing with challenges

For traditional Chinese medicine enterprises, the biggest challenge of the 2020 edition of the Pharmacopoeia is to ban the detection of pesticide residues. In the face of how to improve the ability of enterprises to detect pesticide residues in traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, Zhu Wei, the Marketing Manager of Acchrom-Tech, gave a special report on "Basic Principles of Mass Spectrometry and Introduction to the Application of Pesticide Residues in the 2020 edition of the Pharmacopoeia", covering professional basic knowledge related to mass spectrometry, and providing reference and basis for the rational selection of pesticide residue detection platforms.

The 2020 edition of the Pharmacopoeia is based on the "four strictest" standards, especially in terms of the "effectiveness" and "safety" of medicinal materials. The increase in work content will inevitably bring pressure to enterprises to improve work efficiency. In the face of how to improve detection efficiency, Acchrom-Tech technical engineer Yi Xin gave a special report on "Introduction to Compliance and Efficiency Improvement Methods of Ultra High Performance Liquid Phase Pharmacopoeia", providing constructive suggestions for enterprises to improve work efficiency, reduce method operating costs, and reduce environmental pressure.

Complete success

The theme of this technical exchange meeting is clear, and the content closely follows the 2020 version of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. It has provided timely technical communication and support for traditional Chinese medicine enterprises to smoothly respond to the relevant work of the new version of the Pharmacopoeia, and has received widespread attention and unanimous recognition from traditional Chinese medicine enterprises in Bozhou City, Anhui Province.
