Abstract

Measurement plays an important role in the process of food safety testing. The study of the application and development of measurement in guaranteeing food safety is of great theoretical and guiding significance. This study expounds the concept of measurement and the recent application of measurement in guaranteeing the food safety in the domestic and international areas and analyzes the function of measurement in the detection of food safety. Furthermore, some useful countermeasures and suggestions are put forward to improve the measurement system of food in China. The aim of study is to provide a reference for establishing a perfect mechanism for the implementation of food measuring work.
