[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2014-026472 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The hygiene management system is used by multiple facilities that perform testing for bacteria, etc. In such facilities that perform testing for test objects such as bacteria, it is possible to perform hygiene management within the facility by storing information in the hygiene management system database. However, the information stored in the database is only viewed by the facility that stored the information, and there is currently no attempt to share the information. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] A hygiene management system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is a hygiene management system used by multiple facilities that perform testing of test target substances, and includes a facility skill information receiving unit that receives facility information and skill information of the facilities, a facility skill information determination unit that determines whether the facility information and skill information pass or fail, and an authority granting unit that grants a facility that has been determined to pass by the facility skill information determination unit the authority to view the hygiene management information of other facilities and / or to allow other facilities to view it.

[0006] In this form of sanitation management system, the facility skill information receiving unit receives facility information and skill information of the facility, and the facility skill information judging unit judges whether the facility information and skill information pass or fail. In the sanitation management system, as a result of the pass / fail judgment of the facility information and skill information, a facility judged to pass is granted the authority to view the sanitation management information of other facilities and / or the authority to allow other facilities to view it by the authority granting unit. Therefore, by granting the authority to a facility judged to pass based on the facility information and skill information, it is possible to allow a facility that meets specified conditions to share information with other facilities. Therefore, data can be shared while ensuring the reliability of the database, and the usefulness of the sanitation management system can be improved.

[0007] The facility information may include ISO 17025 certification information.

[0008] The skill information may include a level of external quality control.

[0009] A hygiene management system according to another embodiment may include a facility skill information update unit that requests the facility to update the facility information and skill information after a certain period of time has elapsed since the authority granting unit granted authority.

[0010] A hygiene management system according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is a hygiene management system used by multiple facilities that perform testing of test target substances, and includes a memory unit that stores hygiene management information for the test target substances at the multiple facilities, a keyword receiving unit that receives search keywords from the facilities for searching for the hygiene management information, a hygiene management information extraction unit that extracts hygiene management information that matches the search keywords from the memory unit, and a hygiene management information transmission unit that transmits the hygiene management information extracted by the hygiene management information extraction unit to the facilities.

[0011] In this form of sanitation management system, the storage unit stores sanitation management information for multiple facilities, and the sanitation management information extraction unit extracts sanitation management information that matches the search keywords from the storage unit. The extracted sanitation management information is then transmitted to the facility by the sanitation management information transmission unit. Thus, as with the sanitation management system described above, sanitation management information for other facilities can be transmitted to the facility, allowing the facility to view the sanitation management information for the other facilities. As a result, it is possible to share sanitation management information and improve the usefulness of the sanitation management system.

[0012] The hygiene management information extraction section may extract information regarding the number of test target substances obtained by the test.

[0013] The hygiene management information extraction section may extract image data of the test target substance obtained by the test.

[0014] The hygiene management information extraction section may extract the inspection details of the inspection target substance.

[0015] A hygiene management method according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is a hygiene management method used by a plurality of facilities that perform testing of test target substances, and includes the steps of a facility transmitting facility information and skill information of the facility, receiving a pass / fail judgment result for the facility information and skill information, and a facility that receives a pass / fail judgment result in the receiving step viewing the hygiene management information of the other facilities.

[0016] A hygiene management method according to another aspect of the present disclosure is a hygiene management method used by a plurality of facilities that perform testing of test target substances, and includes the steps of receiving facility information and skill information of the facility from the facility, judging whether the facility passes or fails based on the facility information and skill information, transmitting the pass / fail result to the facility, and granting authority to a facility that is judged to pass in the pass / fail judging step to view the hygiene management information of other facilities and / or to allow other facilities to view the information.

[0017] A hygiene management program according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is a hygiene management program used by a plurality of facilities that perform testing of test target substances, and includes the steps of receiving facility information and skill information of the facility from the facility, judging whether the facility passes or fails based on the facility information and skill information, transmitting the pass / fail result to the facility, and granting to a facility that is judged to pass in the pass / fail judgment step the authority to view the hygiene management information of other facilities and / or to allow other facilities to view the information.

[0018] In these forms of sanitation management methods and sanitation management programs, facility information and skill information for each of a plurality of facilities are transmitted and received, and the pass / fail status of the facility is judged based on the facility information and skill information. The pass / fail result is then notified to the facility, and the facility judged as passing is given the authority to view the sanitation management information of other facilities and / or to allow other facilities to view it. Therefore, for example, a facility judged as passing can view the sanitation management information of other facilities in exchange for allowing the facility to view the sanitation management information of the other facilities. Therefore, by sharing the sanitation management information while ensuring the reliability of the database, the usefulness of the sanitation management system can be improved. Effect of the Invention

[0019] According to the present disclosure, the usefulness of a hygiene management system can be improved. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the hygiene management system, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same or corresponding elements are given the same reference numerals, and duplicated descriptions are omitted as appropriate. In addition, the drawings may be partially simplified or exaggerated for ease of understanding, and the dimensional ratios and the like are not limited to those shown in the drawings. Furthermore, the layout of the screens used in the hygiene management system, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program are not limited to the examples described below and can be changed as appropriate.

[0022] The hygiene management system, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present embodiment are, as an example, a system, method, and program for performing hygiene management of food. In the hygiene management industry, including food, inspections of test objects such as bacteria are performed within facilities, but information such as the inspection method and standards varies from facility to facility. The current situation is that the information such as the above-mentioned methods and standards used in the hygiene management system, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program is not shared between multiple facilities. For this reason, for example, when deciding on the inspection method or standards of one's own facility, or when checking the validity of the results obtained at one's own facility, it is not possible to browse and refer to information from other facilities. On the other hand, if information is simply shared among multiple facilities, there is a concern that the reliability of the database will decrease due to the mixing or accumulation of unreliable information.

[0023] In the sanitation management system, sanitation management method, and sanitation management program according to the present embodiment, for example, by allowing some facilities to view sanitation management information of other facilities, it is possible to realize sharing of sanitation management information and ensure the reliability of the database. In other words, by allowing some facilities to share sanitation management information with other facilities, it is possible to refer to the sanitation management information of other facilities while maintaining the reliability of the database, which contributes to improving the usefulness of the sanitation management system.

[0024] In the present disclosure, "hygiene management information" refers to information regarding the testing of a test target substance. For example, "hygiene management information" includes at least one of the test criteria, test subject, test content, test result, and test method for the test target substance. "Test target substance" includes various bacteria including pathogenic bacteria and hygiene indicator bacteria, as well as allergens (proteins, etc.), and the like. In this embodiment, an example will be described in which the "test target substance" is hygiene indicator bacteria.

[0025] "Specimen" refers to an object to be tested, and includes, for example, a measurement object in which the number of bacteria (bacterial count), which is a type of test target substance, is measured. "Sanitation control" refers to managing the sanitary condition of a sample by measuring the number or presence or absence of a test target substance, such as pathogens, allergens, or food hygiene bacteria, that may be contained in the sample, and includes, for example, food hygiene control and environmental hygiene control.

[0026] In this disclosure, "facility" refers to a facility where testing of test subjects is performed, and includes, for example, the company that performs the testing and the testing laboratory where the testing is performed. One company may own multiple "facilities." "Facility information" refers to information about the facility where the testing is performed, and includes, for example, equipment information such as whether the facility has sufficient equipment to perform the testing. "Skill information" refers to information about the skills of the inspectors who perform the testing at the facility.

[0027] The hygiene management system 1 according to the embodiment is, for example, a computer system used to perform hygiene management for testing a test target substance. The type of test target substance is not limited in any way. The type and configuration of the device that functions as the hygiene management system 1 are not limited. For example, the hygiene management system 1 may be configured as a single computer, and may be, for example, a mobile terminal such as a tablet terminal, a high-function mobile phone (smartphone), or a laptop-type personal computer, or may be a stationary personal computer. Alternatively, the hygiene management system 1 may be a distributed processing system configured by multiple computers, a client-server system, or a cloud system.

[0028] The hygiene management program according to the present embodiment includes, for example, a main module, a data acquisition module, an image analysis module, a determination module, and an output module. The main module is a module that comprehensively manages the functions of the hygiene management system 1. By executing the data acquisition module, the image analysis module, the determination module, and the output module, each functional component of the hygiene management system 1 functions. The hygiene management program may be provided by being fixedly recorded on a tangible recording medium such as a CD-ROM, a DVD-ROM, or a semiconductor memory. In addition, the hygiene management program may be provided via a communication network as a data signal superimposed on a carrier wave.

[0029] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a functional configuration of an exemplary hygiene management system 1. The hygiene management system 1 includes, for example, a server 20. The exemplary server 20 is capable of communicating with each of the terminals 10 of a plurality of facilities (inspectors, as one example). In this disclosure, an "inspector" refers to a person who inspects a sample. A "terminal" includes an information terminal such as a personal computer and a mobile terminal, and a mobile terminal includes a portable terminal such as a laptop computer, a tablet, or a mobile phone.

[0030] The server 20 has, as functional components, a memory unit 21, a display control unit 22, an identification code output unit 23, an input unit 24, a pass / fail determination unit 25, an approval request unit 26, an inspection content output unit 27, a tampering determination unit 28, a facility skill information receiving unit 29, a facility skill information determination unit 30, a facility skill information update unit 31, an authority granting unit 32, a keyword receiving unit 33, a hygiene management information extraction unit 34, and a hygiene management information transmission unit 35.

[0031] The memory unit 21 stores information received by the server 20 from the terminal 10 and information generated within the server 20. The memory unit 21 stores hygiene management information of a plurality of facilities in a database. The display control unit 22 controls the screen displayed on the terminal 10. The identification code output unit 23 outputs an identification code C (see FIG. 14), which will be described later. The input unit 24 receives input of the number of tested bacteria (the number of substances to be tested).

[0032] The pass / fail determination unit 25 determines whether the bacterial count is pass / fail. For example, the pass / fail determination unit 25 determines whether the bacterial count is pass / fail by comparing the bacterial count input to the input unit 24 with a threshold value output to the identification code C. The pass / fail determination unit 25 may determine a failure when the bacterial count input to the input unit 24 is equal to or greater than the threshold value, and may determine a pass when the bacterial count input to the input unit 24 is not equal to or greater than the threshold value. The approval request unit 26 is a function that requests approval to ship the specimen that has been determined to be pass / fail. The test content output unit 27 is a function that outputs the test content, for example, outputting a list of specimens to be tested for bacterial count. The tampering determination unit 28 determines whether the bacterial count data file described later has been tampered with.

[0033] The facility skill information receiving unit 29 receives facility information and skill information. The facility skill information receiving unit 29 may be a functional element that receives facility equipment information, or may be a functional element that receives skill information of facility inspectors. The facility information indicates, for example, information on the facility's inspection equipment, and may include the hygiene or completeness of the inspection equipment. The facility information may be an index indicating whether the facility has the ability to produce accurate inspection results. The facility information may be ISO17025 certification information. ISO17025 is a management system for certifying the accuracy of a testing laboratory or calibration organization, and obtaining ISO17025 certification information ensures conformity with the QMS (quality management system) as well as conformity with technical capabilities as a testing facility or calibration facility.

[0034] The skill information may be a level of external quality control. "External quality control" refers to a skill test or the like that indicates the skill of the inspection. Examples of "external quality control" include an inter-laboratory comparison (proficiency test) program for food analysis, an inter-laboratory comparison (proficiency test) program for microbiological testing, an inter-laboratory comparison (proficiency test) program for qualitative and quantitative analysis of genetically modified foods, and an inter-laboratory comparison (proficiency test) program for fat and oil analysis. The facility skill information receiving unit 29 receives, for example, the level of the above-mentioned proficiency test (test result, for example, Z score) from the facility, and the received level is used to judge whether the facility passes or fails.

[0035] The facility skill information determination unit 30 is a functional element that determines the facility information and skill information received by the facility skill information receiving unit 29. The determination results by the facility skill information determination unit 30 are stored in the memory unit 21. The facility skill information determination unit 30 determines whether the facility information and skill information pass / fail for each facility. The facility skill information determination unit 30 determines, for example, whether the facility information and the skill information pass / fail. As an example, the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines that a facility that has acquired ISO17025 certification information and has an external quality control level above a certain value passes, and determines other facilities as failing.

[0036] The facility skill information update unit 31 is a functional element that periodically updates the facility information and skill information of a facility stored in the storage unit 21. After a certain period of time has elapsed since the facility information and skill information were last stored in the storage unit 21, the facility skill information update unit 31 requests the facility to update the facility information and skill information.

[0037] The authority granting unit 32 is a functional element that grants a facility the authority to share sanitation management information with other facilities different from the facility in question. The authority granting unit 32 grants the facility that has been determined to be passed by the facility skill information determination unit 30 the authority to view the sanitation management information of other facilities and / or to allow other facilities to view the sanitation management information of other facilities. "Authority to view the sanitation management information of other facilities and / or to allow other facilities to view the sanitation management information of other facilities" indicates, for example, authority to allow other facilities to view the sanitation management information of the facility in question (in exchange for allowing other facilities to view the sanitation management information of the facility in question). In this way, the authority granting unit 32 allows the sanitation management information of other facilities to be viewed and / or to be viewed by other facilities. For example, the authority granting unit 32 allows the facility in question to view the sanitation management information of other facilities in exchange for allowing other facilities to view the sanitation management information of the facility in question. Such authority granting is preferable in terms of mutual benefits between the facilities. In the following description and drawings, an example in which authority for mutual viewing is granted in this way will be described. Hereinafter, this "mutual viewing authority" may be simply referred to as "authority." Note that while the authority granting unit 32 allows the sanitation management information of other facilities to be viewed, it does not allow the user to view, for example, which facility the sanitation management information belongs to. In other words, the authority granting unit 32 does not clearly indicate the source of the sanitation management information.

[0038] The keyword receiving unit 33 is a functional element that receives search keywords for searching sanitation management information of other facilities. The keyword receiving unit 33 receives search keywords for searching sanitation management information from a facility (e.g., the terminal 10). The search keywords received by the keyword receiving unit 33 may include, for example, character strings related to at least any one of the inspection criteria, the inspection target, the inspection content, and the inspection method for the inspection target substance.

[0039] The hygiene management information extraction unit 34 is a functional element that extracts hygiene management information stored in the storage unit 21 by using the search keyword received by the keyword receiving unit 33. The hygiene management information extraction unit 34 extracts hygiene management information that matches the search keyword from the storage unit 21. The hygiene management information extraction unit 34 extracts, for example, multiple pieces of hygiene management information linked to the search keyword from the storage unit 21.

[0040] The hygiene management information transmission unit 35 is a functional element that transmits the hygiene management information extracted by the hygiene management information extraction unit 34. That is, the hygiene management information transmission unit 35 transmits the hygiene management information extracted by the hygiene management information extraction unit 34 to a facility (terminal 10 as one example). The hygiene management information transmission unit 35 may transmit the hygiene management information to one facility, or may transmit the hygiene management information to multiple facilities.

[0041] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a hardware configuration of the sanitation management system 1 (e.g., the terminal 10 and the server 20). As an example, each of the above-mentioned functional elements of the server 20 is realized by this hardware configuration. For example, the server 20 includes a processor 41, a main memory unit 42, an auxiliary memory unit 43, a communication module 44, a display 45, and an input interface 46. The processor 41 is a calculation device that executes an operating system and application programs. The main memory unit 42 is composed of, for example, a ROM or RAM, and temporarily stores loaded programs or calculation results, etc. The auxiliary memory unit 43 is composed of a flash memory, a hard disk, etc., and permanently stores programs or data.

[0042] The communication module 44 is composed of a wireless communication module or a network card, and transmits and receives data to and from other computers. The display 45 is composed of a touch panel or a monitor, and is a device that displays data or information so that the user can visually confirm it. The input interface 46 is composed of a touch panel, a mouse, or the like, and is a device that accepts input of data or instructions by the user.

[0043] For example, each of the aforementioned functional elements of the server 20 is realized by loading predetermined software (for example, the aforementioned hygiene management program) into the processor 41 or the main memory 42 and executing the software. The processor 41 operates the communication module 44, the display 45, or the input interface 46 in accordance with the software, and reads and writes data in the main memory 42 or the auxiliary memory 43. Data and the like that are organized into a database are stored in the main memory 42 or the auxiliary memory 43.

[0044] As described above, the server 20 may be configured with one computer or multiple computers. For example, when the server 20 is configured with multiple computers, the multiple computers are connected to each other via a communication network such as the Internet or an intranet to logically construct one server 20.

[0045] Fig. 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of data stored in the storage unit 21. As shown in Fig. 3, the storage unit 21 stores member data D1, master data D2, lot data D3, and measurement data D4. In this embodiment, a "member" refers to a type of "facility." The member data D1 includes, for example, the latest registration date of member information D11, company name D12, facility name D13, number of inspectors D14, number of specimens per test D15, facility information D16, skill information D17, and whether or not the data can be viewed by others D18.

[0046] The facility information D16 includes, for example, data on whether or not ISO17025 has been acquired, and includes, as an example, whether or not it has been acquired D161, the scope of acquisition D162, and the date of acquisition D163. The skill information D17 includes, for example, the company that performed the external quality control D171, the date of implementation D172, the pass rate of the inspectors D173, and the Z scores for each inspector D174, D175. The pass rate of the inspectors D173 indicates the ratio of the number of people who passed the external quality control test to the total number of inspectors at the facility. The accessibility of other people's data D18 indicates whether the facility is a member who can view other people's data or a member who cannot view other people's data. A "member who can view other people's data" indicates a facility that can view the sanitation management information of other facilities, and a "member who cannot view other people's data" indicates a facility that cannot view the sanitation management information of other facilities.

[0047] The lot data D3 includes, for example, the specimen inspection date D31, the current day ID D32, the production date D33, the lot D34, and a remark D35. The measurement data D4 includes the number of bacteria D41 (the number of specimens), the image D42 (image data), the image generation date and time D43, and the judgment D44 (the judgment of the pass / fail result for the specimen).

[0048] Fig. 4 is a diagram showing details of the master data D2. As shown in Fig. 4, the master data D2 includes a name master D21, a specimen master D22, a bacterial culture medium master D23, a test standard set master D24, and a test data master D25.

[0049] The name master D21 includes, for example, culture medium D211 (for example, type of culture medium), bacterial species D212 (for example, type of substance to be tested, such as "general live bacteria"), production plant location D213, line D214, specimen-major category D215, specimen-minor category D216, bacterial species D217, and testing time D218.

[0050] The specimen master D22 includes a specimen name D221 (for example, a food name such as "frozen fried chicken"), a specimen ID D222, a specimen-major category D223, a specimen-minor category D224, contained raw materials D225, and whether or not the specimen has been heated D226.

[0051] The bacterial species medium master D23 includes a bacterial species D231, a medium D232, and an appropriate measurement range D233. The "appropriate measurement range" is, for example, a range of values ​​for determining whether or not to accept the number of bacteria detected by a plate described later.

[0052] For example, a "test specification set" indicates test contents such as a "routine test," etc. The test specification set master D24 includes a test specification set name D241, a test method D242, a specimen collection amount D243, a type of dilution water D244, a dilution ratio D245, an N number D246 (e.g., the number of plates described later), a threshold value D247, a shipping approval item D248, and a remark D249.

[0053] Fig. 5 shows a specific example of data items of the test data master D25. The test data master D25 includes information of the specimen master D22, the bacterial species culture medium master D23, and the test standard set master D24. As shown in Fig. 5, for example, the test data master D25 includes the specimen name D221, the specimen ID D222, the specimen-major category D223, the specimen-minor category D224, the included raw materials D225, whether or not heating is performed D226, the test standard set name D241, the test method D242, the bacterial species D231, the culture medium D232, the appropriate measurement range D233, the specimen collection amount D243, the type of dilution water D244, the dilution ratio D245, the number of samples D246, the threshold value D247, and the shipping approval item D248.

[0054] 6 shows an exemplary flow diagram of calculation of the number of bacteria in a sample and determination of the number of bacteria executed by the hygiene management system 1, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the embodiment. In the hygiene management system 1, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present embodiment, for example, it is possible to eliminate the need for handwritten work in steps S11 to S21 described below, making it possible to improve the efficiency of sample testing. As an example, each of the subsequent steps is executed by the server 20 of the hygiene management system 1.

[0055] First, it is determined whether or not the facility is an eligible facility for initial registration (step S11). In step S11, if the facility is an eligible facility for initial registration (if the facility is being registered for the first time), the process proceeds to step S12, and if it is determined that the facility is not an eligible facility for initial registration, the process proceeds to step S13.

[0056] In step S12, the member registration flow shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 is executed. In the member registration flow, first, a member qualification determination is performed (step S26). As shown in Fig. 8, in the member qualification determination, for example, a registration URL is notified from the server 20 to the terminal 10 (customer edge) (step S31).

[0057] When the registration URL is tapped on the terminal 10, a basic information registration screen E1 exemplified in Fig. 9 is displayed on the terminal 10. When, for example, the company name, facility name, number of inspectors, and number of specimens (per test) are entered on the basic information registration screen E1 and the registration button is pressed, the basic information is registered (step S32).

[0058] Next, a registration screen E2 of facility information and skill information exemplified in Fig. 10 is displayed on the terminal 10. The registration screen E2 includes a facility information input section E21 and a skill information input section E22. The facility information input section E21 includes, for example, items such as ISO17025 certification E21b, certification scope E21c, and certification date E21d. The skill information input section E22 includes, for example, items such as the company E22b that performed the external quality control, the certification date E22c, the pass rate of the inspector E22d, and Z scores E22f, E22g for each inspector.

[0059] On the registration screen E2, when data is entered into each item of the facility information input section E21 and each item of the skill information input section E22 and the registration button is pressed, the facility information and skill information are transmitted to the server 20 (a step of transmitting facility information and skill information). The facility skill information receiving section 29 receives the transmitted facility information and skill information (a step of receiving from facility, a step of receiving from facility), and the facility information and skill information are registered (step S33).

[0060] Next, as shown in FIG. 8, the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines, for example, whether or not ISO 17025 certification has been obtained (step S34), whether the pass rate of inspectors in external quality control testing is above a specified level (step S35), and whether the Z-score of each inspector in external quality control testing is above a specified level (step S36).

[0061] Then, the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines whether the facility that has completed various registrations on the terminal 10 is a member permitted to view or a member not permitted to view (process of determining whether the facility is qualified to view, step of determining whether the facility is qualified to view, step S37). That is, the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines whether the facility is qualified to be a member permitted to view. For example, the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines that the facility is a member permitted to view when it has obtained ISO17025 in step S34, the pass rate is equal to or higher than a prescribed level in step S35, and the Z score is equal to or higher than a prescribed level in step S36.

[0062] The facility skill information determination unit 30 determines that the facility is an inaccessible member if, for example, it determines in step S34 that ISO17025 has not been acquired, the pass rate is not equal to or higher than a prescribed level, or the Z score is not equal to or higher than a prescribed level in step S36. After the above determinations are made, the facility skill information determination unit 30 notifies the terminal 10 of the pass / fail determination result (step of transmitting pass / fail to the facility, step of transmitting pass / fail to the facility, step S38). The terminal 10 receives the pass / fail determination result (step of receiving the determination result). Then, the authority granting unit 32 grants authority to the facility determined to be an accessible member (step of making the facility accessible to view, step of making the facility accessible to view), and the series of steps of membership qualification determination are completed.

[0063] 7, if the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines that the member is qualified as a result of the membership qualification determination, the process proceeds to step S27. On the other hand, if the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines that the member is not qualified as a result of the membership qualification determination, the process proceeds to step S28.

[0064] In step S27, the facility that has received the determination result by the facility skill information determination unit 30 determines whether or not to approve the provision of its own data (the facility) to the sanitation management system 1. At this time, as exemplified in FIG. 11, a data provision approval screen E3 is displayed on the terminal 10. The data provision approval screen E3 corresponds to a screen that requests approval to provide the facility with its own data (sanitation management information). As an example, pressing the "Yes" button on the data provision approval screen E3 means that the provision of the facility's data has been approved, and pressing the "No" button on the data provision approval screen E3 means that the provision of the facility's data has been rejected.

[0065] If the facility refuses to provide its data (NO in step S27), the facility is registered as a member who cannot view other people's data (step S28). On the other hand, if the facility approves the provision of its data (YES in step S27), the facility is registered as a member who can view other people's data (step S29). After going through the above steps S28 or S29, the member registration flow ends.

[0066] 6, after the member registration flow is completed, the master data D2 is registered (step S14). At this time, for example, the contents entered on the basic information registration screen E1 are registered in the member information latest registration date D11, company name D12, facility name D13, number of inspectors D14, and number of samples D15 in the member data D1. Then, the contents entered on the registration screen E2 are registered in the respective fields of facility information D16 and skill information D17 in the member data D1. Note that the master data D2 may be registered together with the member registration flow (step S12) rather than after it.

[0067] 6, if it is determined that the facility is not a facility to be initially registered (NO in step S11), the process proceeds to step S13, where it is determined whether the facility is a member who is allowed to view other people's data. If it is determined that the facility is a member who is allowed to view other people's data, the process proceeds to an information update flow (step S15). On the other hand, if it is determined that the facility is not a member who is allowed to view other people's data, the process proceeds to step S16.

[0068] In step S15, for example, an information update flow shown in Fig. 12 is executed. In the information update flow, for example, it is determined whether the facility information and skill information have been updated within a certain period (for example, six months or one year) (step S41). At this time, if it is determined that the facility information and skill information have been updated within the certain period (YES in step S41), the information update flow is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined that the facility information and skill information have not been updated within the certain period (NO in step S41), a reminder to update the facility information and skill information is notified to the facility (for example, terminal 10) (step S42).

[0069] After a predetermined period of time (e.g., January or February) has elapsed since step S42, it is determined whether the facility information and skill information have been updated (step S43). At this time, if the facility information and skill information have been updated (YES in step S43), the facility is maintained as a member who can view other people's data (step S44). On the other hand, if the facility information and skill information have not been updated (NO in step S43), the facility is re-registered as a member who cannot view other people's data (step S45). The information update flow ends after the above steps S44 or S45.

[0070] After the information update flow is completed, the test data master D25 is read (step S51), for example, as shown in FIG. 13. When the test data master D25 is read, for example, the test items of the specimen are extracted. FIG. 13 is a flow diagram showing each step of the flow diagram of FIG. 6 in more detail. After the test data master D25 is read, the lot data D3 is created (steps S16, S52). At this time, for example, each item of the lot data D3 is input from the terminal 10, and each item of the lot data D3 (specimen test date D31, today's IDD32, production date D33, lot D34, and remarks D35) is registered.

[0071] After the lot data D3 is created, the identification code output unit 23 outputs the identification code C, for example, as shown in FIG. 14 (steps S17 and S53). The identification code C is displayed, for example, as an identification code display screen E4. The identification code display screen E4 includes, for example, an identification code C associated with a plate, which will be described later, and the identification code C includes identification information for identifying the plate. In this embodiment, the identification code C is a barcode. However, the identification code C is not limited to a barcode, and may be another type of identification code, such as a QR code (registered trademark).

[0072] Fig. 15 is an enlarged view of the identification code C. As shown in Figs. 14 and 15, the identification code C includes, for example, the medium C1, dilution ratio C2, N number C3 (number of plates), individual IDC4, test date C5, threshold C6, and proper measurement range C7, which are plate identification information. In this embodiment, the "threshold" indicates a reference value for determining whether the number of bacteria in the acquired sample is acceptable or not, and for example, a bacterial count equal to or greater than the threshold is determined to be unacceptable, and a bacterial count less than the threshold is determined to be acceptable. The "proper measurement range" is, for example, a numerical range for determining whether the number of bacteria detected by the plate is acceptable or not.

[0073] The identification code C does not necessarily have to include all of the culture medium C1, dilution ratio C2, N number C3, individual IDC4, test date C5, threshold value C6, and appropriate measurement range C7, and may further include other information. Furthermore, the way in which the identification code C is expressed, along with the content included in the identification code C, can also be changed as appropriate. For example, letters such as alphabets may be written instead of the numbers written in the identification code C, or the numbers in the identification code C may be changed to letters or the like to reduce the number of digits in the identification code C.

[0074] 14 may be printed out as a sticker on a predetermined print medium. In this case, when the print medium is set in a printing machine such as a printer and the identification code display screen E4 is printed out, the print medium is printed out with the identification code C printed on the sticker. The identification code C is peeled off from the printed print medium, and the peeled identification code C is affixed to a plate, and the plate is ready for incubation of the sample (step S54).

[0075] FIG. 16 is a perspective view showing an exemplary plate F to which an identification code C is attached. In this embodiment, the number of bacteria in a sample is calculated using plate F. Conventionally, testing has been performed using an agar medium. However, when testing is performed using plate F as in this embodiment instead of an agar medium, the testing time can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, because plate F is in the form of a film, the space required for culture can be significantly reduced, bacteria (also called colonies) can be easily observed, and disposal after culture can be easily performed.

[0076] In this embodiment, the "plate" is a sheet-like member having a culture medium for the specimen, and is a tool capable of testing the number of bacteria in the specimen by placing, for example, a specimen diluted in the culture medium. For example, the plate F includes a lower film F1 on which the specimen is placed, and an upper film F2 that covers the lower film F1. As an example, the lower film F1 includes a foam dam, culture medium components, adhesive, and plastic-coated paper, and the upper film F2 includes a cold water-soluble gel, an adhesive containing an indicator, and a plastic film. For example, the specimen (test liquid) is placed in the center of the lower film F1, and the upper film F2 covers the specimen and the lower film F1. Then, when a spreader (not shown) is placed on the upper film F2 to spread the specimen, the specimen gels after a certain time (for example, after 1 minute).

[0077] After that, when the specimen is cultured for a predetermined time, the bacteria in the specimen develop color in dots, as shown in, for example, Figures 17 and 18. After attaching an identification code C to the plate F on which the bacteria have developed color in this way, the plate F with the identification code C attached thereto is inserted into the reader R. The reader R is an instrument that reads the number of bacteria by counting the number of bacteria that develop color on the plate F. Conventionally, the number of bacteria on the plate F has been counted manually, which was inefficient. However, the reader R makes it possible to count the number of bacteria in a short time (for example, about 4 seconds) by inserting the plate F. As an example, the reader R automatically counts the number of bacteria on the plate F and outputs the counted number of bacteria in a file format.

[0078] 18, 19 and 20, when a plate F is inserted into the reader R, for example, the reader R reads the plate F, and software installed in the terminal 10 that is capable of communicating with the reader R measures the number of bacteria (steps S18, S55). Then, a bacteria count data screen E5 is output to the terminal 10, the bacteria count is calculated, and a bacteria count data file E6 including the calculated bacteria count is output (steps S19, S56).

[0079] The bacteria count data screen E5 includes, for example, a plate screen E51, a sample IDE52, a culture medium E53, a dilution ratio E54, a colony count E55 (bacteria count), and a calculated colony count E56. For example, the bacteria count data file E6 is automatically output when output of the bacteria count data file E6 is selected in the pre-settings. The bacteria count data file E6 includes an inspector E61, a sample IDE62, an image generation date and time E63, a culture medium E64, a dilution ratio E65, an identification code text E66, a colony count E67, and a calculated colony count E68.

[0080] The plate screen E51 displays, for example, a mark E58 that highlights the position of a colony together with the plate F. In the example of Fig. 19, a rectangular mark E58 is displayed so as to surround a circularly displayed colony. For example, the sample IDE52, E62 and the identification code text E66 may both include identification information for identifying the plate F, and the identification code text E66 may indicate text data of the identification code C affixed to the plate F. The colony numbers E55, E67 indicate the number of colonies displayed on the plate screen E51, and the calculated colony numbers E56, E68 are numerical values ​​indicating the product of the number of colonies displayed on the plate screen E51 and the dilution ratio.

[0081] In this embodiment, as an example, the bacteria count data file E6 is uploaded to the master data D2. That is, the bacteria count data file E6 is stored on the cloud (storage unit 21) (step S57). After that, for example, the tampering determination unit 28 may determine whether the bacteria count data file E6 has been tampered with. Note that the tampering determination unit 28 may be omitted. As an example, the tampering determination unit 28 determines whether the identification code C on the cloud and the read identification code C are the same (step S58).

[0082] For example, if the tampering determination unit 28 determines that the identification code C on the cloud is the same as the read identification code C, it calculates the number of bacteria (steps S19 and S59). On the other hand, if the tampering determination unit 28 determines that the identification code C on the cloud is not the same as the read identification code C, it outputs an alert (step S60). In step S60, for example, an alert may be output to the effect that the bacteria count data file E6 has been tampered with. After the alert is output, the series of steps may end.

[0083] In calculating the number of bacteria, for example, a test result confirmation screen E7 shown in Fig. 21 is displayed. The test result confirmation screen E7 is displayed, for example, on the terminal 10. The test result confirmation screen E7 includes, for example, a test result display section E71, a test date input section E72, a specimen-major category selection section E73, a production date input section E74, a production factory selection section E75, a judgment result selection section E76, and a search button E77. In the judgment result selection section E76, for example, any of undetermined, passed, failed, and undetermined can be selected. As an example, by default, all of undetermined, passed, failed, and undetermined are selected in the judgment result selection section E76.

[0084] For example, when the search button E77 is pressed with the test date input section E72 and the determination result selection section E76 filled in, the test results for the test date entered in the test date input section E72 are displayed in the test result display section E71. Note that, when a condition is selected in any of the specimen-major category selection section E73, the production date input section E74, the production factory selection section E75, and the determination result selection section E76, for example, only the test results that satisfy the selected condition are displayed in the test result display section E71.

[0085] The test result display section E71 displays, for example, the test date, the day ID, the sample name, a selection button, bacterial culture medium information, the number of bacteria, the threshold value, and the judgment result. The test date in the test result display section E71 matches the test date input in the test date input section E72. The day ID in the test result display section E71 is, for example, an ID that matches the individual ID DC4 of the identification code C, and indicates the ID assigned on the day of the test. When the selection button in the test result display section E71 is pressed, for example, a detailed screen of the test results is displayed. The bacterial culture medium information in the test result display section E71 includes, for example, the bacterial species D231 and the culture medium D232 stored in the above-mentioned bacterial culture medium master D23.

[0086] The judgment displayed on the test result display unit E71 is, for example, whether the value of the number of bacteria calculated according to a predetermined rule from the colony count E68 in the bacteria count data file E6, which is the number of bacteria obtained at each dilution stage, is pass or fail. The judgment of whether the number of bacteria in the test result display unit E71 is pass or fail is performed, for example, by the pass / fail judgment unit 25 described above (steps S20 and S61). For example, the pass / fail judgment unit 25 judges it as fail when the number of bacteria is equal to or greater than the threshold C6, and judges it as pass when the number of bacteria is less than the threshold C6.

[0087] After the bacteria count has been determined as described above, an inspection report is created (steps S21, S62). In creating the report, for example, the report is created by inputting information into an automatically displayed inspection report format. At this time, data may be analyzed and stored, and for example, each item of the measurement data D4 obtained as a result of the inspection is updated. As a specific example, the bacteria count is stored in bacteria count D41, the plate screen E51 is stored in image D42 of the measurement data D4, the generation date and time of the plate screen E51 is stored in image generation date and time D43, and the judgment result of the above-mentioned bacteria count is stored in judgment D44.

[0088] The above inspections and updates of each item of the measurement data D4 are performed, for example, at each of the multiple facilities. Next, an example of each step (viewing step) of the flow in which a facility that is a member that can view other people's data views the sanitation management information of other facilities will be described with reference to the flow diagram of Figure 22. The data search flow of Figure 22 is performed, for example, by the terminal 10 described above.

[0089] For example, when the software installed on the terminal 10 is started, a search keyword input screen E8 as shown in Fig. 23 is displayed. First, a search keyword is input into the input screen E8 (step S71). As a specific example of the input, at least one of the specimen name E81, specimen-major category E82, specimen-minor category E83, contained raw materials E84, whether or not heating was performed E85, bacterial species E86, and culture medium E87 is input on the input screen E8.

[0090] Then, the user checks the content he or she wants to search for from among the group of check boxes E88 for the content he or she wants to search for. The group of check boxes E88 has check boxes for, for example, the test content (bacteria species, culture medium, etc.), images, and the number of bacteria, and among these check boxes, the user checks the content he or she wants to search for. Then, the user presses the start search button E89 to complete input of the search keywords.

[0091] When a search keyword is input, the keyword receiving unit 33 receives the input keyword. Then, the hygiene management information extracting unit 34 extracts hygiene management information linked to the input keyword (for example, at least one of the specimen name E81, specimen-major category E82, specimen-subcategory E83, included raw materials E84, whether or not heating was performed E85, bacterial species E86, and culture medium E87) from the master data D2 or the measurement data D4 (step S72).

[0092] The hygiene management information extracted by the hygiene management information extraction unit 34 is then transmitted to the terminal 10 by the hygiene management information transmission unit 35, and, for example, the search results for the hygiene management information are displayed on the terminal 10 (step S73). Fig. 24 shows an examination content screen E9, which is an example of the hygiene management information of other facilities that is displayed. The examination content screen E9 is a screen that is displayed when the examination content (bacterial species, culture medium, etc.) is checked in the check box group E88 on the input screen E8.

[0093] The test details screen E9 includes, for example, search conditions E91 and search results E92. The search conditions E91 display at least one of the specimen-major category E82, specimen-minor category E83, included raw materials E84, and heating E85 input on the input screen E8. For example, the search results E92 display, for each bacterial species, the test method, the amount of specimen collected, the type of dilution water, the culture medium, the dilution ratio, the N number, and the threshold value, which are linked to the items input on the input screen E8. The data displayed in the search results E92 corresponds to each piece of information in the test specification set master D24 linked to the bacterial species D231 in the bacterial species culture medium master D23.

[0094] FIG. 25 shows image data E10 after culture, which is another example of the displayed sanitation management information of another facility. The image data E10 includes, for example, images E101, E102, and E103 after culture, and search conditions E104, E105, and E106. The search conditions E104, E105, and E106 display at least one of the specimen name E81, specimen-major category E82, specimen-minor category E83, included raw materials E84, whether or not heating was performed E85, bacterial species E86, and culture medium E87 inputted on the input screen E8. The images E101, E102, and E103 are images associated with the items (e.g., bacterial species) inputted on the input screen E8. The images E101, E102, and E103 correspond to, for example, the image D42 of the measurement data D4. As image data E10, image generation date and time D43 may be displayed together with images E101, E102, and E103.

[0095] FIG. 26 shows a final bacteria count screen E11, which is yet another example of the hygiene management information of another facility. For example, the final bacteria count screen E11 includes search conditions E120, bacteria count E121, and judgment E122. The search conditions E120 display at least one of the specimen name E81, specimen-major category E82, specimen-minor category E83, included raw materials E84, whether or not heating was performed E85, bacteria species E86, and culture medium E87 inputted on the input screen E8. The bacteria count E121 and judgment E122 display the bacteria count and judgment result associated with the item inputted on the input screen E8. For example, the bacteria count E121 corresponds to the bacteria count D41 of the measurement data D4, and the judgment E122 corresponds to the judgment D44 of the measurement data D4.

[0096] As described above, a facility that is a member that can view other people's data can view the test details, image data, and the relationship between the bacterial count and the judgment (pass criteria) of other facilities by displaying at least one of the test details screen E9, image data E10, and final bacterial count screen E11. In this way, a facility that is a member that can view other people's data can display hygiene management information of other facilities, but information indicating, for example, the source of the hygiene management information is not displayed. In other words, the test details, image data, and pass criteria of other facilities are displayed, but the facility from which these came is not displayed. By not displaying source information in this way, the privacy of the facility is ensured.

[0097] Next, the effects of the hygiene management system 1, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present embodiment will be described. In the hygiene management system 1, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present embodiment, the facility skill information receiving unit 29 receives facility information and skill information of the facility, and the facility skill information judging unit 30 judges whether the facility information and skill information pass or fail. In the hygiene management system 1, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present embodiment, the authority granting unit 32 grants to a facility that is judged to pass as a result of the pass or fail judgment of the facility information and skill information, the authority to allow other facilities to view the hygiene management information of other facilities, and / or the authority to allow other facilities to view the information. Therefore, by granting the authority to a facility that is judged to pass by judging the pass or fail from the facility information and skill information, it is possible to allow information sharing with other facilities for facilities that meet certain conditions. Therefore, it is possible to share data while ensuring the reliability of the database, and to improve the usefulness of the hygiene management system.

[0098] The facility information may include ISO 17025 certification information. In this case, the facility can be judged based on the ISO 17025 certification. Therefore, a facility that performs product inspection, analysis, or measurement with high accuracy can be judged as passing.

[0099] The skill information may include the level of external quality control. In this case, the pass / fail of the facility is judged using the level of external quality control aimed at ensuring the reliability of the inspection at the facility. Therefore, the pass / fail of the facility can be judged with higher accuracy, which contributes to improving the quality of the information in the database.

[0100] The exemplary sanitation management system 1 may include a facility skill information update unit 31 that requests the facility to update the facility information and skill information after a certain period of time has passed since the authority granting unit 32 granted authority. In this case, the facility skill information update unit 31 periodically requests the facility to update the facility information and skill information. Therefore, the data in the database can be maintained in a high quality state.

[0101] The hygiene management information extraction unit 34 may extract information on the number of test target substances obtained by the test (for example, the final bacteria count screen E11 including the bacteria count). In this case, the extracted number of test target substances can be viewed by the facility, so information on the number of test target substances that other facilities use as a standard can be obtained. Therefore, based on the obtained number information, it is possible to appropriately confirm the validity of the test results and set standards, etc.

[0102] The hygiene management information extraction unit 34 may extract image data E10 of the test target substance obtained by the test. In this case, the image data E10 of the test target substance is viewable by the facility, so information on the image data E10 of the test target substance at other facilities can be obtained. Therefore, information on the test target substance at other facilities can be visually grasped as image data E10.

[0103] The hygiene management information extraction unit 34 may extract the test contents of the test target substance (for example, the information shown on the test contents screen E9). In this case, the test contents of other facilities can be viewed, so that information regarding the test of the test target substance can be further shared.

[0104] The above describes the embodiments of the hygiene management system, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present disclosure. However, the hygiene management system, hygiene management method, and hygiene management program according to the present disclosure are not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and may be modified or applied to other things as long as the gist of each claim is not changed. In other words, the configuration and function of each part of the hygiene management system, and the content and order of each step of the hygiene management method can be appropriately changed as long as the gist of the above is not changed.

[0105] For example, in the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which the facility information is ISO 17025 certification information and the skill information is the level of external quality control. However, the facility information may be information other than the ISO 17025 certification information, and the skill information may be information other than the level of external quality control.

[0106] The content and order of each step of the hygiene management program can be changed as appropriate. Furthermore, the processing procedure of the hygiene management method and hygiene management program executed by at least one processor is not limited to the examples in the above embodiments. For example, some of the steps (processing) described above may be omitted, or each step may be executed in a different order. Furthermore, any two or more of the steps described above may be combined, or some of the steps may be modified or deleted. Furthermore, other steps may be executed in addition to the above steps.

[0107] In the above embodiment, an example was described in which the sanitation management system 1 includes the server 20, and the server 20 includes the memory unit 21, the display control unit 22, the identification code output unit 23, the input unit 24, the pass / fail determination unit 25, the approval request unit 26, the inspection content output unit 27, the tampering determination unit 28, the facility skill information receiving unit 29, the facility skill information determination unit 30, the facility skill information update unit 31, the authority granting unit 32, the keyword receiving unit 33, the sanitation management information extraction unit 34, and the sanitation management information transmission unit 35. However, it is also possible to omit any of the memory unit 21, the display control unit 22, the identification code output unit 23, the input unit 24, the pass / fail determination unit 25, the approval request unit 26, the inspection content output unit 27, the tampering determination unit 28, the facility skill information receiving unit 29, the facility skill information determination unit 30, the facility skill information update unit 31, the authority granting unit 32, the keyword receiving unit 33, the sanitation management information extraction unit 34, and the sanitation management information transmission unit 35.

[0108] In the above-described embodiment, the plate F for detecting the number of bacteria, the threshold C6 indicating the number of bacteria serving as a criterion for judging whether the number of bacteria is pass or fail, the input unit 24 into which the number of bacteria is input, and the pass / fail judgment unit 25 for judging whether the number of bacteria is pass or fail are exemplified. However, instead of at least one of the plate F, the threshold C6, the input unit 24, and the pass / fail judgment unit 25, a plate for detecting test subjects other than bacteria (e.g., allergens), a threshold indicating the number of test subjects other than bacteria, an input unit into which the number of test subjects other than bacteria is input, and a pass / fail judgment unit for judging whether the test subjects other than bacteria are pass or fail may be provided.

[0109] In the above-described embodiment, the hygiene management system 1, which is a food hygiene management system that manages food, the hygiene management method, and the hygiene management program are illustrated. However, the objects managed by the hygiene management system, the hygiene management method, and the hygiene management program are not limited to food and can be changed as appropriate.
