Sticking to the HACCP principle, the Company makes risk analysis on the entire industry chain from raw materialsto finished products, for determining key control points and their thresholds. To this end, the Company has hadadvanced inspection equipment, and trained a team of technical talents for raw material inspection, Baijiu tastingand Baijiu quality check to conduct comprehensive supervision, inspection, evaluation and analysis of raw materials,products and packaging materials, so as to ensure the stability and reliability of product quality. On the basisof universal detection methods and equipment throughout the entire production chain, the Company has alsodeveloped and introduced special rapid detection technology and equipment to expand the testing scope, improveprocess monitoring, and thereby reduce food safety risks. In addition, the Company has collaborated with researchinstitutes to enlarge the sources of risk information retrieval and the scope of risk screening in the food industry,aiming to guard against food safety issues in advance and ensure effective control of the production process.
Food safety testing
Infrared Spectrum Analysis Technology: As a fast, efficient, non-destructive and on-site analysis approach,infrared analysis method is very suitable for the rapid qualitative and quantitative analysis of Baijiu due toits convenient detection, no need for sample pretreatment and online analysis compatibility. At present, theCompany mainly uses near-infrared spectrum analysis technology to detect the acidity, moisture and starchof fermented grains, and uses mid-infrared spectrum analysis technology for the total acid, total ester, ethylcaproate, ethyl lactate, ethyl butyrate and ethyl acetate of Baijiu.
Machine Vision Technology: The Company currently uses advanced image processing technology based on PC totest the bottle height, bottle mouth, appearance, bottle specification identification, bottle bottom, inner parts ofbottle cap, liquid level and sealing, labeling and coding, among others of liquor bottles; and uses sequence imageprocessing and deep learning algorithms to identify, classify, and statistically analyze impurities such as glassshavings, fibers, plastic shavings, hair, mosquitoes, black spots, and color blocks in the liquor body. Through theapplication of machine vision technology, the demand for in-situ detection under high-speed production conditionshas been met, the detection efficiency has been improved, and production costs have been reduced.

Special rapid detection technology and equipment for Baijiu
The Company, together with China National Research Institute of Food & Fermentation Industries, has developed twodetection methods, namely high-precision detection method for ethyl carbamate (EC) and its precursors in Baijiu,and mineral oil detection method, which provides good guidance on the control of EC level and mineral oil pollutionin products. Meanwhile, the Company has realized periodic monitoring over the level of pesticide residues in thepurchased raw grains, effectively controlling the introduction of unintended pesticide residues in the fermentedgrains, and strengthening the food safety control level in the procurement process.
The Company joined hands with China National Research Institute of Food & FermentationIndustries to conduct cutting-edge research on safety risk factors for alcoholic foods
To provide a theoretical basis for screening and storing safe and stable food contact materials, the Company establishedproject cooperation with Southwest University of Science and Technology whereby to compare the commonly-used PC andPET materials for bottle caps in the Baijiu industry, focusing on the study of the factors affecting the stability of the above twomaterials and the possibility of modification/blending. Through this project, a nano polyethylene terephthalate/polycarbonatecomposite material and its preparation method have been developed, with the corresponding processing parametersstandardized and a production and operation manual prepared, for which an invention patent application has been made.
CaseThe Company established project collaboration with Southwest University of Science and Technology
The Company, jointly with Sichuan Food Inspection and Research Institute, has established a high-throughput screening anddetection technology suitable for illegal additives in alcohol samples. The illegal addition screening database established bythis technology contains 413 compounds. The technical methods include pre-processing methods, quantitative collectiontechniques, high-resolution mass spectrometry databases for illegal additives, and unknown compound screening techniques,which solve the technical difficulties of low throughput and weak targeting of compound screening.
The Company collaborated with Sichuan Food Inspection and Research Institute jointly incarrying out research on the inspection method for illegal additives in Baijiu
