From October 12 to 26, 2025, the China-Africa International Training Course on Biological Product Testing & Inspection, organized by the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC), successfully concluded in Beijing. During the program, 23 professionals from drug regulatory agencies, testing institutions, and research organizations across 14 African countries received hands-on training.
The training included “theoretical lectures, practical exercises, case studies, and field work”, which covered the entire lifecycle of biological products, from R&D to post-market supervision. To address the specific needs of African region, the course incorporated highly practical content such as rapid drug testing technology, where the BFRL’s FR60 spectrometer was put into use.
Key advantages of the FR60 include:
Professional: Developed for on-site rapid testing needs, it supports handheld/portable operation and requires no complex pretreatment.
Precise: By leveraging the synergy of complementary physical mechanisms (dipole moment and polarizability), it enables expanded capabilities in chemical substance identification, and improves the accuracy and reliability of analysis.
Characteristic: Compact and lightweight, it meets unique requirements such as on-site rapid testing and mobile law enforcement.
Innovative: The handheld integrated infrared-Raman spectrometer that combines Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and high-frequency Raman-based mapping spectroscopy.
The successful hosting of the training course is expected to further strengthen China-Africa collaboration in pharmaceutical regulation, facilitate the global market entry of high-quality Chinese biomedical products, while effectively enhance drug safety assurance capabilities in Africa, and contribute to the development of a China-Africa health community.
