Enhance Capacity and Capability of State Human and Animal Food Testing - Nebraska Department of Agriculture

管理核心摘要内布拉斯加州农业部(NDA)实验室正在申请 支持建立和维护我们的人和动物的实验室灵活资助模式(LFFM) 加强食品检测能力，使我们能够继续致力于建立一个综合食品安全体系。这个 实验室与NDA财务、法律和其他内部共享服务协同工作，提供 对NDA商业饲料计划的行政支持(自3月起全面实施AFRPS 2020)和NDA食品和乳制品计划。实验室就实验室检测请求提供咨询 并满足MFRPS标准10和AFRPS标准10。 NDA实验室对样本采集的要求每年都会在抽样中更新 实验室和监管项目之间的协议。我们确定一个样本集合 日历，讨论对常规和非常规样品的期望，以及样品的完成 提交表格以建立监护链。NDA将修改我们实验室抽样的条款 符合实验室灵活供资模式要求的协议。 实验室确保该项目的所有关键人员都完成了必要的培训 并根据我们的质量管理体系获得授权(在需要的地方)。员工 对范围内的所有实验室活动执行相同的培训和授权步骤(即，阅读和 了解程序，遵守程序，执行观察中的程序，执行 独立的程序，经理在授予权力之前审查培训记录)。 能力测试是证明每种测试方法的持续能力的有效方式。 获奖后，NDA实验室将与FDA沟通，讨论合作事宜 LFFM中未涵盖的协议细节。我们将参与规划国家测试工作流程 并有助于确定对商品的危害对。此外，我们期待着国家 支持统一劳动力概念的实验室工作规划。 实验室利用每个实验室部门主管的意见准备月度报告。 这些月度实验室报告在准备联邦拨款材料和其他机构时很有价值 报告需求。我们还按照前一次合作的指示向eLEXNET报告了FDA的数据 协议。2019年，内布拉斯加州自愿参加了与其他州实验室和 FDA Fern将测试向国家食品安全数据交换(NFSDX)提交数据的新流程。 步骤包括映射NDA测试代码以匹配FDA代码，然后使用新的提交模板 手动上传数据。内布拉斯加州是第一个成功上传 试运行期间的NFSDX手册模板。

Admin Core Summary The Nebraska Department of Agriculture (NDA) Laboratory is applying for the Laboratory Flexible Funding Model (LFFM) in support of building and maintaining our human and animal food testing capacity so that we can continue working towards an Integrated Food Safety System. The laboratory works in concert with NDA Finance, Legal, and other internal shared services to provide administrative support to the NDA Commercial Feed Program (full AFRPS implementation as of March 2020) and NDA Food and Dairy Program. The laboratory provides consultation on lab testing requests and fulfills MFRPS Standard 10 and AFRPS Standard 10. NDA Laboratory requirements for sample collection are updated annually in a sampling agreement between the Laboratory and regulatory programs. We determine a sample collection calendar, discuss expectations for routine and non‐routine samples, and completion of sample submission forms to establish chain of custody. NDA will modify the terms of our laboratory sampling agreements to meet the requirements of the Laboratory Flexible Funding Model. The laboratory ensures that all key personnel for this project have fulfilled necessary training and obtained authorizations (where needed) according to our quality management system. Staff perform the same training and authorization steps for all laboratory activities under scope (i.e., read and understand the procedure, observe the procedure, perform the procedure under observation, perform the procedure independently, manager reviews training record prior to conferring authority). Proficiency testing is an effective way to demonstrate ongoing competency for each test method. Post award, the NDA Laboratory will be in communication with FDA to discuss cooperative agreement specifics not covered in the LFFM. We will take part in planning national testing workflows and contribute to identification of Hazard‐to‐Commodity pairs. In addition, we look forward state laboratory workplanning in support of the one workforce concept. The laboratory prepares a monthly report using inputs from each laboratory section supervisor. These monthly lab reports are valuable in the preparation of federal grant materials and other agency reporting needs. We have also reported FDA data to eLEXNET as instructed in previous cooperative agreements. In 2019, Nebraska volunteered to participate in a pilot project with other state labs and FDA FERN to test a new data submission process to the National Food Safety Data Exchange (NFSDX). Steps involved mapping NDA test codes to match FDA codes and then use the new submission template to upload the data manually. Nebraska was the first state partner to achieve a successful upload of the NFSDX manual template during the pilot.
