National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) retail food surveillance in selected urban areas of northern California.

项目摘要 国家抗生素耐药性监测系统（NARMS）是一个国家监测系统， 监测肠道细菌对医学相关抗菌剂敏感性的系统 以帮助评估兽用抗菌剂对人类健康的影响。NARMS 零售食品监督计划，食品和药物管理局之间的合作项目 兽医管理中心（FDA/CMV），CDC，州和地方卫生 部门，通过改进对抗菌药物的检测和监测来支持这一使命。 零售生肉中肠道细菌的耐药性。为了实现这一目标，我们 建议从随机抽样的零售店购买生肉、家禽和海鲜并进行检测 市场在旧金山弗朗西斯科和圣何塞，加州。生肉会被送到魂斗罗 科斯塔公共卫生实验室（CCPHL），微生物学家将尝试分离 所有肉类样本均含有沙门氏菌;仅家禽样本含有弯曲杆菌;以及 肠球菌属、气单胞菌属、弧菌属及其他乳糖阳性菌。所有 分离株将转交FDA/CMV进行抗生素耐药性检测。为每个产品 购买，我们将记录商店名称和位置，品牌名称，销售日期，购买 日期、包装类型和原产国（如有）。除了监测 生肉中细菌的流行率和抗菌素耐药性的趋势，这些数据至关重要 食源性疫情调查，并帮助提供抗菌剂使用参数， 兽医学这些数据将与相关合作伙伴共享，并可供公众使用 卫生专业人员促进干预措施，以减少食源性细菌的耐药性。

Project Summary The National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) is a national surveillance system that monitors the susceptibility of enteric bacteria to medically relevant antimicrobials in order to help assess the impact of veterinary antimicrobial use on human health. The NARMS Retail Food Surveillance Program, a collaborative project between the Food and Drug Administration Center for Veterinary Medicine (FDA/CMV), the CDC, and state and local health departments, supports this mission by improving detection of and surveillance for antimicrobial resistance among enteric bacteria in raw retail meat commodities. To achieve this goal, we propose to purchase and test raw meat, poultry, and seafood from randomly sampled retail markets in San Francisco and San Jose, California. Raw meat will be delivered to the Contra Costa Public Health Laboratory (CCPHL) where microbiologists will attempt to isolate Salmonella from all meat samples; Campylobacter from poultry samples only; and Enterococcus, Aeromonas, Vibrio and other lactose positive bacteria from seafood samples. All isolates will be forwarded to FDA/CMV for antibiotic resistance testing. For each product purchased, we will record the store name and location, brand name, sell-by date, purchase date, packaging type, and the country of origin, when available. In addition to monitoring the prevalence of bacteria and trends in antimicrobial resistance in raw meat, these data are vital to foodborne outbreak investigations and help to inform parameters for antimicrobial use in veterinary medicine. These data will be shared with relevant partners and can be used by public health professionals to promote interventions to reduce resistance among foodborne bacteria.
