New Mexico State University Laboratory Flexible Funding Model (U19)

项目概要：总体 NMSU食品安全实验室（FSL）将努力实现FERN的目标，确保 经过培训的工作人员能够参加FERN活动，如能力测试，新产品的评估， 监测和紧急疫情样本的方法和分析。 NMSU FSL建议通过聘请质量管理人员来改善我们目前的质量管理体系。 经理与NMSU FSL总监、员工和APHL合作，以实现和维护ISO 17025 认可。 NMSU FSL建议与新墨西哥州印第安人卫生服务局和新墨西哥州 博彩委员会从新墨西哥州部落国家收集食物样本。直到IHS协议 在现场，NMSU FSL可以收集200个木瓜样品和300个冷冻热带水果样品并进行分析 他们对沙门氏菌肠道，李斯特菌和STEC，直到我们建立我们的新样本 收集安排。 NMSU FSL建议对400种或更多病原体的混合物进行测序，并分享结果（以及 元数据）实时到国家生物技术信息中心国家数据库， 肠道病原体基因组。 如果我们能够进行额外的分析，NMSU FSL可以更好地为FDA FERN服务。的BAM 环孢子虫的分子检测程序是我们可以建立的一种方法， 实验室在食源性疾病爆发时为FDA提供检测支持。 NMSU FSL计划与新墨西哥州印度卫生服务部门合作进行采样 在新墨西哥部落国家的食物供应中 NMSU FSL建议参与小规模方法开发/验证，作为 实况调查团。我们提议参与沙门氏菌qPCR方法的MLV。

Project Summary: Overall The NMSU Food Safety Laboratory (FSL) will work towards achieving FERN objectives by ensuring that trained staff are able to participate in FERN activities such as proficiency tests, evaluation of new methodologies and analysis of surveillance and emergency outbreak samples. The NMSU FSL proposes to improve our current Quality Management System by hiring a quality manager to work with the NMSU FSL director, staff and APHL to achieve and maintain ISO 17025 accreditation. The NMSU FSL proposes to partner with the New Mexico Indian Health Services and the New Mexico Gaming Commission to collect food samples from New Mexico tribal nations. Until the IHS agreement is in place, NMSU FSL could collect 200 papaya sample and 300 frozen tropical fruit samples and analyze them for Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes and STEC until we establish our new sample collection arrangement. The NMSU FSL proposes to sequence a mixture of 400 or more pathogens and share the results (and metadata) in real-time to the National Center for Biotechnology Information national database for enteric pathogen genomes. The NMSU FSL could better serve the FDA FERN if we could conduct additional analyses. The BAM molecular detection procedure for Cyclospora cayetanensis is one method that we could establish in our laboratory to provide testing support to the FDA in the event of a foodborne disease outbreak. The NMSU FSL plans to collaborate with the New Mexico Indian Health Services to conduct sampling within the NM Tribal Nations’ food supply. The NMSU FSL proposes to participate in small‐scale method development/validation as a part of the LFFM. We are proposing to participate in the MLV for qPCR method for Salmonella.
