Microbiology Animal Food Product Testing Analytical Track

提高能力和能力 微生物和化学测试，以支持 综合食品防御和食品安全系统 微生物学学科，动物食品产品测试分析跟踪 项目总结/摘要 俄亥俄州农业部（ODA）消费者保护实验室（CPL）建议， 加强联邦保护全国食品供应的努力，加强州政府的监管 作为食品安全现代化法案的一部分， 紧急反应网络。该机构应参与国家发起的产品测试， 动物食品，预计至少检测500个样品， 在五年项目期内的每一年，ODA-CPL旨在 在5年的赠款期内解决三个问题。首先，ODA-CPL将购买新的 这将有助于我们更有效、更准确地检测食源性病原体。 我们还将购买一个专门的遮光罩，以帮助样品制备任务。二是 我们会增加人手，协助我们有效地进行人类食物监察工作 项目通过增加技术人员，我们可以让我们更有经验的科学家， 进行测试，并将时间用于方法开发机会。最后，在支持 从赠款，我们将寻求不断增加更多的方法，我们的ISO 17025范围， 认可。我们期待着增加更多的新出现的疾病， 我们在毒理学、寄生虫学和最终病毒学领域的能力。通过 扩大我们的范围，我们认为我们将能够更好地为我们的客户和联邦合作伙伴服务。

Increasing the Capability and Capacity of Microbiological and Chemical Testing to Support an Integrated Food Defense and Food Safety System Microbiology Discipline, Animal Food Product Testing Analytical Track Project Summary / Abstract The Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) Consumer Protection Laboratory (CPL) propose to strengthen federal efforts to protect the national food supply and enhance the state's regulatory effectiveness in food safety as part of the Food Safety Modernization Act and the Food Emergency Response Network. The agency shall participate in state-initiated product testing of animal foods products with the expectation of testing at minimum 500 samples for microbiological adulterants during each year of the five-year project period. ODA-CPL seeks to address three issues during the 5-yr grant period. First, ODA-CPL shall purchase new instrumentation that will help us more efficiently and accurately detect foodborne pathogens. We shall also purchase a specialized hood to help with sample preparation tasks. Second, we shall look to add on personnel to help us effectively conduct the human food surveillance project. By adding staff at the technician level, we can allow our more experienced scientists to conduct the testing and devote time to method development opportunities. Lastly, with support from the grant we will look to continually add more methods to our ISO 17025 scope of accreditation. We look forward to moving towards adding more of the emerging illness causing agents to our capability in the areas of toxicology, parasitology and eventually virology. By enhancing our scope, we feel we will be better able to serve our clients and federal partners.
