China Economic Network, Beijing, May 27 (Reporter Han Xiao) May 22-24EasyplaytoearncryptogamesThe 19th International Symposium on probiotics and Health was held in Guangzhou, Guangdong. The conference was sponsored by the Chinese Society of Food Science and Technology, and the participating experts comprehensively analyzed the development trend of global probiotic science and technology from a forward-looking perspective, and put forward many constructive ideas and thoughts on how to cultivate new productivity of probiotic industry through scientific and technological innovation. It is suggested that science and technology and industry should further strengthen cooperation and inject more scientific and technological connotations into China's probiotic industry.

Strengthen cooperation and inject more scientific and technological forces into the development of probiotic industry

In a speech on behalf of the organizers, Shao Wei, executive vice president of the China Society of Food Science and Technology, put forward three suggestions around "new" and "quality". First, the scientific research of probiotics is facing "new" changes, and the transformation ability of achievements needs a "qualitative" leap. In the past 50 years, the scientific research of probiotics has only increased, but there is still a shortage of probiotic strains to achieve industrialization. The probiotics industry should strengthen the systematic research of probiotic strains, constantly strengthen the scientific and technological core of the strains, and let more star strains serve the health of the people. Second, the industrial development of probiotics needs a "new" direction, and the effective supply capacity of popular science urgently needs to be improved in quality. The probiotics industry should gradually construct the scientific evidence system of the efficacy of probiotics and the system of scientific dissemination and transformation to consumers, and strengthen the communication with consumers based on scientific facts and laws and regulations. Third, the management mode of probiotics ushered in "new" changes, and the standardized control level of products needs a "qualitative" breakthrough. The Chinese Society of Food Science and Technology actively promotes the relevant research on the record management of probiotic health food, and the probiotics record is expected to be landed. The probiotics industry should better practice its internal skills, receive and use this policy dividend, and maintain the sound and healthy development of the industry.

For the future development of the probiotic industry, Chen Wei, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and president of Jiangnan University, pointed out that the first is to deeply tap local probiotic resources and build a strain protection system for independent intellectual property rights. Due to the high biodiversity of probiotics, the development and utilization of known strain resources is still very limited. It is necessary to further strengthen the excavation, protection and innovative utilization of probiotic germplasm resources to achieve self-reliance and self-control of core microbial strains. The second is to clarify the scientific connotation of the biological function of probiotics to ensure the supply of excellent strains. As a kind of active microorganism, the interaction between probiotics and human body and the mechanism of health effect are complex and diverse, involving multi-dimension, multi-target and heterogeneity. This requires an in-depth study of the molecular genetic characteristics, effect material basis, action target and dose-effect relationship behind probiotics, and strive to build a clinical trial evaluation and evidence-based system of probiotics. Solid scientific evidence is used to endorse the health efficacy of probiotics. On the basis of in-depth understanding of the scientific connotation of probiotics, a more accurate and efficient breeding strategy was developed. The third is to promote collaborative innovation in many fields and expand the application boundary of probiotics. Due to the lack of cross-depth in various fields, the expansion and application of probiotics is still limited. It is necessary to further promote the interdisciplinary research of food science and multi-disciplines, integrate the advantages of industrial technology in many fields, share high-quality resources, and further extend the application space of probiotics. The fourth is to further promote the science popularization of probiotics and lead the new ecology of probiotic consumption with scientific consensus. In the work of science popularization of probiotics, objective and accurate information should be transmitted to the public to avoid misleading and exaggerating propaganda.

Chen Zongyun, party member and deputy director of Guangdong Agricultural and Rural Department, said in his speech that probiotics, as an important part of microbial germplasm resources, is of great significance in extending the agricultural industrial chain, driving farmers to contribute development dividends, and meeting the growing needs of the people for a better life. As one of the earliest provinces to carry out the research and application of agricultural microorganism in China, Guangdong has a good foundation of agricultural microorganism industry, obvious first-mover advantage, and has the characteristics of "sufficient resource advantage, large market advantage and strong innovation advantage". Guangdong is rich in agricultural microbial resources with distinctive features. At present, agricultural microbial germplasm resources are collected and preserved in the whole province. 6Easyplaytoearncryptogames. more than 50,000 plants. There are more than 50 scientific research institutes and universities engaged in microbiological research in Guangdong, gathering a team of high-quality talents led by Academician Wu Qingping, and there are now more than 3000 microbiology-related enterprises. the advantages in technological innovation, product research and development and achievement transformation are very obvious.

Build consensus to provide scientific guidance for probiotic product research and development and industrial development

The evolution of intestinal microflora is a complex and delicate process, which is affected by many factors and plays an important role in shaping the composition of intestinal microflora. In order to solve the scientific problem of lack of unified understanding of "healthy intestinal flora", the probiotic branch of the Chinese Society of Food Science and Technology gathered experts in various fields to form the five major expert consensus on the main characteristics of human intestinal flora. The consensus of experts on intestinal flora completed by experts in the field of probiotics was released at the meeting to better guide the industry to carry out the development and functional evaluation of probiotic-related products.

In order to further cultivate the new productivity of the probiotic industry and enable the industry to develop the probiotic industry with high quality, the probiotic industry launched the "Industry Initiative for Scientific and technological Innovation to cultivate probiotic New Productivity". In addition, the China Society of Food Science and Technology reached an annual scientific and technological cooperation agreement with the National Dairy Technology Innovation Center, IFF, Junlebao Dairy Group Co., Ltd., Amway (China) Commodity Co., Ltd., and Jianhe (China) Co., Ltd. and signed a contract at the meeting. The cooperation focuses on global dairy technological innovation, probiotic research funds, personnel training and scientific consensus.

Strengthen the foundation and constantly consolidate the scientific and technological cornerstone of the probiotic industry

In the past ten years, the research on the effect of intestinal microflora on human health has gradually shifted from theoretical research to practical application. The targeted regulation of intestinal microflora through daily dietary supplement has become the trend and focus of the future health food industry. The innovative research and development of new products represented by intestinal microflora targeted food (MDF) has attracted much attention in the industry. During the conference, nearly 80 wonderful reports brought together the global probiotic annual scientific and technological wisdom and industrial innovation ideas.

Wu Qingping, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and honorary director of the Institute of Microbiology of the Guangdong Province Academy of Sciences, pointed out in the theme report "Targeted Breeding of Important Healthy Microbial Strains and Functional Product Research and Development" that the strategic position of microbial resources has become increasingly prominent and they play a role in many fields."Leading role", developing the microbial industry is a national strategic need. Although microbial resources are abundant, less than 10% are recognized by humans. At the same time, studies have found that intestinal flora disorders are closely related to the occurrence and development of many common metabolic diseases, including obesity, type 2 diabetes and malnutrition. More and more evidence proves that probiotics can play a certain role in specific diseases, but mechanism research is still very scarce. Reliable research is urgently needed in the field of probiotics to clarify their exact mechanism of action. "It is necessary to build a database of healthy functional microbial resources and build my country's microbiome big data platform; explore the molecular mechanisms and key technologies of healthy functional microorganisms and chronic disease prevention and control; analyze healthy functional microorganisms to reconstruct intestinal microecological balance and chronic disease prevention and control new mechanism." Wu Qingping said when looking forward to future industrial development.
