During the two sessions, Yitong submitted a "Suggestions on Improving the Innovation Incentive Policy of the Scientific Instrument Industry in our country". "The Analytical Instrument Branch of the Chinese Society of Instrumentation and Instrumentation conducted a questionnaire survey in August 2018. The purpose of the survey was to find out which key components of scientific instruments rely on imports, and the results are not optimistic." A survey result she showed to reporters showed that nearly 30 key components used in our country are highly dependent on imports, such as photomultiplier tubes used in spectral type analysis equipment, ultra-low noise preamplifiers used in nuclear magnetic resonance analyzers, and molecular pumps used in mass spectrometers.

industry base is weak and the industrial chain is incomplete

Wu Aihua, deputy secretary-general of the Analytical Instrument Branch of the China Instrumentation Society, told the Science and Technology Daily reporter that the above-mentioned nearly 30 key components are only incomplete statistics, so many types of components, the types of scientific instruments involved are expected to have hundreds of categories. In addition to key components, some key materials are 100% dependent on imports.
