Control of food safety in Russia: problems and solutions

In his message to the Federal Assembly back in 2018, the President of the Russian Federation noted that with the powerful foreign economic and defense potential of our country, the most important task of ensuring the quality of life and well-being of people still remains unattainable. He recognized the need to make a decisive breakthrough in saving the people, noting that efforts only in the field of medicine are not enough for this. Five years have passed, but the tasks set out in the address still remain relevant and require improved management of the consumer market based on market principles and state regulation.

The problem of quality and falsification of fish food products

The problem of fish quality and falsification is very relevant. VNIRO, which the author represents, has 29 branches in all regions, from Kaliningrad to the Far East, so the material reflects the true state of affairs with fish products throughout Russia.

Keywords: fish products, caviar, quality, falsification, imitation, veterinary accompanying document

Counterfeiting on meat products: detection methods and types of control

When falsifying meat products, meat is partially replaced with less nutritionally valuable components — offal, milk powder or plant components such as starch, flour, cereals, vegetables and soybeans, which greatly reduces the cost of the final product, but certainly affects the quality. In this regard, control and identification of meat and meat products become one of the key tools to ensure safety and protect the interests of consumers.

Instrumental methods for monitoring dairy products

Laboratories at dairy industry enterprises monitor the quality and safety of raw materials and manufactured products in accordance with the industry register of measurement methods. The development of laboratory instrumentation contributes to the emergence of methods based on new measurement principles, on the determination of indicators that make it possible to detect various types of contaminants in milk, and makes it possible to improve existing methods. Express methods for assessing routine indicators are being created, arbitration methods are being automated, which help to deeply study the composition of milk and dairy products with greater accuracy and reproducibility of measurement results and minimal labor costs.

Strategy 2030 and the problem of deep processing of raw materials

The strategy of improving the quality of food products in the Russian Federation until 2030 covers a huge array of interrelated problems of production, quality control, technology development and innovative products, etc. Currently, its implementation is halfway through. A number of studies have already been published on the implementation and analysis of many aspects of the Strategy, but the problem of deep processing of raw materials, despite the huge opportunities, has not received proper coverage.

Model for improving the quality of the machining technological process using the IDEF notations with FMEA. Part 2

The reengineering of machine-building production in the Russian Federation in accordance with the innovative development model is characterized by the development of accumulated knowledge, the creation of technological platforms, the digitalization of production and management, which are important conditions for the growth of the effectiveness of machine-building enterprises. The emergence of new digital technologies requires improvement of approaches and methods for organizing production in mechanical engineering. In the second part of the article, the authors present the results of an analysis of the decomposition of the stages of key technological processes in mechanical engineering production. In addition, the subsequent adjustment of stages is presented, implemented through the use of the FMEA method, taking into account the integration of integrated CAD/CAM systems and automated monitoring systems as the main mechanisms in the updated process model, presented in the form of IDEF group notations.

Keywords: quality assurance, technological process, process approach, metalworking, quality management system, IDEF (Integrated DEFinition) group of notations, digitalization, modeling, analysis of failure modes and consequences (FМЕА)

Practical significance and economic feasibility of developing scientific products

The authors of the article, who developedmore than 600 types of enterprise-based reference materials of the mass fraction of total mercury in food production have managed very successfully to practically implement the results of their scientific work by developing on their basis five universal types of state-based reference materials for five groups of homogeneous food products independent of the matrix of individual types of food products within their groups. Now, outlining the algorithm of this process using their own example, they share their experience with those who would like to independently transform their developments into a sought-after product.
