Drug and food control is crucial because it involves the safety of millions of human lives and the value of large commodity circulation. The monitoring system must be carried out in a systematic, strict, and comprehensive manner based on an efficient system. The purpose of the drug and food control system is to protect people’s health and safety from products that do not meet the requirements and increase national industry excellence.
