Abstract:Traceability coding method and identification technology is the key step for the total quality control. According to EAN·UCC-the Global Identification System, this study established the coding method for flounder traceability based on UCC/EAN-128 Bar Code by comparing UCC/EAN-13 to UCC/EAN-128. After the label material was determined, the label was linked to each fish by strapping the label on the fishtail or embedding on different parts of the fish, and after comparison an identification method of flounder traceability was established. This method could provide technical support for flounder traceability and ensure the total traceability from breeding to consumption with electronic information technology. The research and demonstration results indicate that the label abscission rate is less than 2%, and after the labels being soaked for one month, the recognition accuracy of bar code information reached 100%.
