Report on the detection of foreign objects in the meals of Huashi Science and Technology Education Canteen
On July 18th, relevant media reported that foreign objects were found in the meals of Huashi Science and Education Canteen. Our bureau attaches great importance to it and will send samples of foreign objects sealed by the public security department to the Guangzhou Food Inspection Institute and the Guangzhou Quality Supervision and Testing Research Institute for testing, and invite relevant industry experts to participate.
The testing institution comprehensively uses methods such as morphological detection, nucleic acid detection, protein detection, and infrared detection to carry out testing, and the results are as follows: firstly, morphological testing comparison. Invite experts to the laboratory of a third-party testing institution to dissect and cook the eyeball structure of a duck head on site. After taking the sclera of its outer wall and restoring it to the sample for water absorption, the shape comparison is highly similar, with a diameter of about 1.5 centimeters for both, and the appearance, color, structure, and texture of the touch are very similar. Secondly, conduct nucleic acid testing on the submitted samples to detect duck derived components; Perform protein testing on the submitted samples to detect protein components, indicating that the samples are composed of organic matter from animals. The third is the comparison of laboratory infrared detection, and the results show that the infrared spectrum of the submitted sample is basically consistent with the infrared spectrum of the cooked duck head eyeball sclera dissected on site; Inconsistent with the standard spectra of natural rubber and polyethylene.
Based on the above test results, the submitted samples exclude the possibility of rubber products and disposable gloves, and the height may be a duck eyeball sclera structure.
Thank you to the news media and various sectors of society for their supervision of food safety work in our district. Next, our bureau will continue to carry out food safety inspection and supervision work to ensure the food safety of the people. Please follow the authoritative information released by netizens, do not believe in rumors, do not spread rumors, and jointly protect a clean online environment.
