Discipline A: Microbiology Analytical Track 5 Microbiology Capability/Capacity Development

微生物轨道5--微生物能力/能力 发展 项目摘要/摘要： 印第安纳州卫生部肠道实验室是主要的实验室， 印第安纳州食源性疾病调查的基因组测序。目前的调查 主要集中在对临床样本进行排序，然而，第一年的赠款将用于带来 在用于食品分离物测序的微型序列上。培训将使肠道实验室工作人员做好使用这一新技术的准备 检测并将分离株提交给GenomeTrakr。微生物学家将参加熟练程度测试和 保持根据批准的方法对样品进行排序和分析的能力。我们还计划 参加任何电话会议、GenomeTrakr面对面会议、WGS培训和其他 在授权期内所需的活动。授权期2-5年将用来建立我们的测试 能力和能力基于FDA建议的开发项目，具体规定每个赠款年度。 ISDH实验室拥有广泛的仪器和专门的工作空间，将允许 微生物学家处理一项开发项目。其他实验室领域也可以充当主题专家 取决于项目中涉及的仪器、分析物或技术。

Microbiology Track 5 – Microbiology Capability / Capacity Development Project Summary/Abstract: Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) Enteric Lab is the primary laboratory performing whole genome sequencing for foodborne illness investigations for the State of Indiana. Current investigations are mainly focused on sequencing clinical specimens, however, year 1 of the grant will be used to bring on a MiniSeq for sequencing food isolates. Trainings will prepare the Enteric Lab staff to use this new instrument and submit isolates to GenomeTrakr. Microbiologists will participate in proficiency tests and maintain competencies to sequence and analyze samples based on approved methodology. We also plan to participate in any conference calls, GenomeTrakr face to face meetings, WGS trainings, and other activities that are required during the grant period. Grant years 2-5 will be spent building up our testing capability and capacity based on the FDA’s suggested development projects specified each grant year. ISDH Labs has a wide range of instrumentation and specialized workspaces that will allow for the microbiologists to tackle a development project. Other lab areas can also act as subject matter experts depending on the instrument, analyte, or techniques involved in the projects.
