| Sumario: | This article studies the creation of chemical municipal laboratories in Chile between 1892 and 1924 as part of an early health policy associated with the circulation of safe food. It explores the formation of the food problem as a scientific matter, which was managed at the state level under municipal direction. Along with placing this policy as part of an international change in food management, it studies from a local scale its national anchorage in the main cities of Chile. It proposes that these offices not only helped to identify the risks of food during early industrialization, but also collaborated in the formation of the national sanitary system through the development of a network of laboratories and the modeling of new scientific and bureaucratic elites. |
