Enhancing Human and Animal Food Testing in North Carolina in Support of an Integrated Food Safety System: Microbiology Track 5

研究及相关其他项目信息 项目摘要/摘要 课程内容：微生物课程5 北卡罗来纳州农业部食品和药物保护局(FDPD) 消费者服务(NCDA&CS)将支持国家一体化和注重预防的食品和 通过构建和部署可用于提供状态的新分析功能，构建和部署饲料安全系统 以及拥有关键数据的联邦合作伙伴。在合作协议的第一年，FDPD将开发 通过设备采购、培训和能力认证实现全基因组测序(WGS)能力 评估。随着食品和药物管理局WGS项目的发展，从食品中分离出的所有病原体， 饲料，环境样本将接受WGS，数据将与GenomeTrakr共享以 促进检测和控制食源性疾病的暴发。

Research & Related Other Project Information Project Summary/Abstract Component: Microbiology Track 5 The Food & Drug Protection Division (FDPD) within the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) will support a nationally integrated and prevention-focused food and feed safety system by building and deploying new analytical capabilities that can be used to supply state and federal partners with critical data. In Year 1 of this cooperative agreement, FDPD will develop whole genome sequencing (WGS) capabilities through equipment purchase, training, and competency assessments. Following development of the WGS program at FDPD, all pathogens isolated from food, feed, and environmental samples will undergo WGS, and data will be shared with GenomeTrakr to facilitate detection and control of outbreaks of foodborne illness.
