NEVADA STATE PUBLIC HEALTH LABORATORY OVERALL ABSTRACT SUMMARY The Nevada State Public Health Laboratory (NSPHL) is the only public food-testing laboratory in Nevada. Analytical food testing is provided to Nevada’s regulatory agencies and health authorities assessing foods for regulatory compliance, emergency response and foodborne outbreak investigations. The NSPHL is the primary testing laboratory for Nevada’s Manufactured Food Regulatory Program (MFRP) testing submitted foods monthly. In addition, the NSPHL has been a CDC PulseNet Laboratory providing PFGE analyses, and more recently whole genome sequencing testing, for foodborne related pathogens statewide. The NSPHL is the designated FERN laboratory in Nevada as well as a Tier I Laboratory Response Network (LRN-B) Biological and LRN-C Level II Chemical Laboratory performing Select Agent/Hazard testing on a variety of matrices. Over the past few years, the NSPHL has been working toward ISO/IEC 17025:2017 Accreditation. The initial onsite A2LA Assessment is scheduled for July 23-24, 2020. The NSPHL is seeking to maintain the existing food testing capacities under the ISO/IEC 17025:2017 scope while supporting the MFRP. In addition, enhancement of the testing scope to include whole genome sequencing methodologies, radiochemistry analyses as well as other methods to comply with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) to heighten food safety with a prevention focus. Nevada is unique in that it not only provides public health laboratory services to Nevada citizens but also to millions of tourists. As a destination state, there is an abundance of food related establishments and buffet venues that could be a source of concern. The 24/7 food service options in Nevada provide a beneficial and conscious surveillance opportunity to assure protection of visitors and citizens’ health in Nevada using a risk-based model with prevention being the focus.

内华达州公共卫生实验室总体摘要 内华达州公共卫生实验室(NSPHL)是唯一一家公共食品检测机构 内华达州的实验室。分析食品检测提供给内华达州的监管机构 评估食品监管合规性的机构和卫生当局，紧急情况 应对和食源性暴发调查。 NSPHL是内华达州人造食品的主要检测实验室 每月提交的食品监管计划(MFRP)检测。此外，NSPHL 一直是CDC PulseNet实验室，提供PFGE分析，最近 全州范围内食源性相关病原体的全基因组测序测试。 NSPHL是内华达州指定的蕨类实验室，也是一级 实验室反应网络(LRN-B)生物和LRN-C二级化学品 实验室对各种基质进行选择试剂/危险测试。 在过去的几年中，NSPHL一直在努力实现国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会17025：2017年 认证。最初的现场A2LA评估计划于2020年7月23日至24日进行。 NSPHL正在寻求保持现有的食品检测能力， 国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会17025：2017年范围，同时支持最低标准。此外，增强了 测试范围包括全基因组测序方法、放射化学 分析以及其他遵守食品安全现代化法案的方法 (FSMA)以预防为重点提高食品安全。 内华达州的独特之处在于，它不仅为 内华达州的市民也吸引了数以百万计的游客。作为目的地状态，有一个 丰富的食品相关机构和自助餐场所，可能是一个来源 担忧。内华达州的全天候餐饮服务选项提供了有益的和有意识的 确保内华达州游客和公民健康得到保护的监测机会 使用以风险为基础、以预防为重点的模式。 第1页，共1页
