Microbiology - Analytical Track 1: Food Defense

夏威夷州卫生部 国家实验室司 实验室准备和反应分支 生物反应科 学科A -分析轨道1：食品防御 项目摘要： SLD的生物反应组是实验室反应网络的积极成员 （LRN）。自2000年作为独立的应急实验室成立以来，BRS工作人员一直在 在生物恐怖主义（BT）相关病原体和其他新兴传染病病原体检测的第一线。 2004年5月，SLD成为粮食紧急反应网络的积极成员。目前， SLD的BRS是FERN在夏威夷的前线。作为FERN微生物实验室，BRS-SLD 负责快速检测食品中的微生物威胁因子， 大规模食源性疫情和地方疫情，并进行实验室分析，以支持食品安全。 安全和监视活动。该项目的主要目标是确保SLD准备好应对 通过保持BSL-2的功能来防止食品中任何可能的故意微生物污染， BSL-3实验室设施，包括认证要求，保持员工执行食品 测试，维护必要的测试设备，在需要时随时可用，并确保 试剂和用品的供应情况。食物环境卫生署计划测试最少50种食品是否含有细菌相关因子， 兴趣

Hawaii State Department of Health State Laboratories Division Laboratory Preparedness and Response Branch Biological Response Section Discipline A – Analytical Track 1: Food Defense Project Summary: The Biological Response Section (BRS) of the SLD is an active member of the Laboratory Response Network (LRN). Since its creation in 2000 as a stand-alone emergency response laboratory, the BRS staff have been on the front-line in testing for bioterrorism (BT) related agents and other emerging infectious disease agents. In May 2004, SLD became an active member of the Food Emergency Response Network (FERN). Currently, the BRS of the SLD is the front-line for FERN in Hawaii. As a FERN Microbiology Laboratory, BRS-SLD is responsible for the rapid detection of microbial threat agents in food, provides diagnostic support in response to a large-scale food-borne outbreak and local outbreaks, and performs laboratory analyses in support of food security and surveillance activities. The main objective of this project is to ensure SLD's readiness to respond to any possible intentional microbial contamination of food products by maintaining a functioning BSL-2 and BSL-3 laboratory facilities, including certification requirements, maintaining staff competency to perform food testing, maintaining necessary equipment for testing that are readily available when needed and ensuring the availability of reagents and supplies. SLD plans to test al least 50 food products for BT related agents of interest.
