Laboratory Flexible Funding Model - Chemistry and Microbiology Disaplines

项目概要-总体组成部分 《食品安全现代化法案》（FSMA）概述了一种新的食品安全方法，即风险告知 预防为主。认识到抽样检测可在帮助原子能机构 和我们的监管合作伙伴防止受污染的产品到达消费者手中，了解风险， 并评估控制这些风险的策略的价值，食品和药物管理局已经开始 重新思考该机构如何部署其资源的过程。 这将需要收集和测试大量不同类型的矩阵。黎巴嫩实况调查团赠款将 通过制作大量样本产出， 推动一个基于风险和预防为重点的食品安全体系，FDA和我们的国家合作伙伴 可用于跟踪和趋势分析，早期识别新出现的问题，并评估未来 抽样举措和重点领域。此外，实验室将有机会扩大其 测试范围，以建立和增加样品吞吐量和能力，在他们的国家 WI BLS（实验室服务局）自2009年以来一直是FERN合作基金的成员。 作为FERN WI的成员，BLS也通过许多测试、PT和挑战练习做出了贡献 在过去12年里的所有会议上做演讲。WI BLS渴望承担新的 挑战，扩大我们的测试范围，并帮助FDA与这个全国性的倡议。因此，我们 适用于动物和人类的食物轨道，以及两个发展轨道，除了 食物防御和所有纪律D轨道。 除了WI BLS非常适合其经验丰富的工作人员，我们也有一个强大的， 广泛的仪器库存与这一供资机会的目标相一致。WI BLS拥有超过30个 工作人员和20名化学家和微生物学家，平均超过25年的实验室测试经验 行业，以及平均20+年在WI BLS。此外，我们有我们的20.88协议到位 自2008年以来一直是ISO认证的实验室，通过 FDA ISO授权，自2012年以来一直是FDA ISO授权的受让人。

Project Summary - Overall Component The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) outlines a new approach to food safety that is risk-informed and preventive in focus. Recognizing that sample testing can play a greater role in helping the Agency and our regulatory partners prevent contaminated product from reaching consumers, understand risks, and assess the value of strategies to control those risks, Food and Drug Administration has begun the process of rethinking how the agency deploys its resources. This will require collection and testing of a great many different kinds of matrices. The LFFM grant will be utilized to support the above-mentioned initiative by producing a large quantity of sample outputs that will drive a risk-based and prevention focused food safety system that both the FDA and our State partners can utilize for tracking and trending, early identification of emerging issues, and evaluation for future sampling initiatives and areas of focus. Further, laboratories will be offered the opportunity to expand their testing scope to build and increase sample throughput capacity and capability within their state WI BLS (Bureau of Laboratory Services) has been a member of the FERN Cooperative grant since 2009. As member of FERN WI BLS has contributed through many testing, PT, and challenge exercises, as well as presentations at all the conferences over the past 12 years. WI BLS is eager to take on new challenges, expand our testing scope, and help FDA with this nationwide initiative. As such, we have applied for both animal and human food tracks, as well as both developmental tracks, in addition to the Food Defense and all Discipline D tracks. In addition to WI BLS being well suited with its highly experienced staff, we also have a robust and extensive instrument inventory aligned with the goals of this funding opportunity. WI BLS has over 30 staff member and 20 Chemist and Microbiologist who average over 25+ years in the laboratory testing industry, as well as averaging 20+ years at WI BLS. Additionally, we have our 20.88 agreement in place with FDA, have been an ISO accredited laboratory since 2008, have mentored other state labs through the FDA ISO grant, and have been a grantee of the FDA ISO grant since 2012.
