Chemistry: Analytical Track 3: Animal Food Testing

摘要：化学分析科目3(动物性食品检验) 家庭安全可能受到掺有多种化学物质的宠物食品的威胁，或者受到 被污染的动物饲料，构成了这个国家食物链的起点。这一大型和 多方面的建议是贡献一个全面的、综合的食品保护实验室 食品应急网络(FERN)的枢纽，能够分析多种不同的食物 跨越各种威胁优先事项。监控动物/宠物食品的化学污染 解决了一个潜在的漏洞，因此是我们确保 安全的食品供应。该提案旨在维持和延长MDH实验室管理局的 通过使用国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会17025：2017年认证的多种动物性食品(每年100个样品)进行测试的能力 方法、广泛的技术能力和经验丰富的食品化学分析人员 实验室。该实验室建议每年从商品/危险物质对中检测100个样本 FDA已将其确定为国家优先事项。这一有计划的战略是对 实验室的大批量人类食品检测活动。

SUMMARY: CHEMISTRY ANALYTICAL TRACK 3 (ANIMAL FOOD TESTING) Household safety can be threatened by pet food that is adulterated with a wide range of chemicals, or by contaminated animal feed that forms the start of the nation’s food chain. The core tenet of this large and multifaceted proposal is to contribute a comprehensive and integrated food protection laboratory hub to the Food Emergency Response Network (FERN) that is capable of analyzing many different foods across a diversity of threat priorities. Surveilling animal/pet food for chemical contamination addresses a potential vulnerability, and is thus an integral component of our goal of ensuring a safe food supply. This proposal seeks to maintain and extend the MDH Laboratories Administration’s capability by testing diverse animal foods (100 samples annually) using ISO/IEC 17025:2017-accredited methods, extensive technical capabilities, and the experienced Analysts of the Food Chemistry Laboratory. The Laboratory proposes to test 100 samples annually from the commodity/hazard pair that the FDA has determined to be national priorities. This planned strategy complements the Laboratory’s high-volume human food testing activities.
