NARMS Cooperative Agreement Program to Enhance and Strengthen Antibiotic Resistance Surveillance in Retail Food Specimens in New York State

纽约州卫生部（NYSDOH）沃兹沃斯中心（WC） 公共卫生实验室致力于保护和改善健康 纽约人通过实验室测试分析、调查研究。 该项目的具体目标是改进对以下疾病的检测和监测， 从食品中分离的沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌的抗生素耐药性 从精选的杂货店购买。目标是：1）收集和测试 利用微生物测试的沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌样品; 2）收集， 分析和交换隔离鉴定的监测数据，并提供 血清分型分析; 3）运输100%的沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌分离株， 从肉类样本中提取额外的测试给FDA;以及4）与FDA合作， 兽医中心（CVM），NARMS和国家实验室合作伙伴。 这项工作的预期成果包括：（1）增加 从零售肉类中分离出的沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌的数量， 分析; 2）保持将结果与监督数据进行比较的能力， 交流信息和测试结果; 3）提供更多的 提交给FDA的弯曲杆菌和沙门氏菌分离株;以及4）增加 伙伴实体之间的协作和沟通。

The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Wadsworth Center (WC) public health laboratory is committed to protecting and improving the health of New Yorkers through laboratory testing analysis, investigations and research. The specific aim of this project will be to improve detection of, and surveillance for, antibiotic resistance for Salmonella and Campylobacter isolated from food products purchased from selected grocery stores. Objectives will be to: 1) collect and test samples for Salmonella and Campylobacter utilizing microbiological tests; 2) collect, analyze and exchange surveillance data on isolate identifications and provide serotyping analysis; 3) ship 100% of Salmonella and Campylobacter isolates attained from meat samples for additional testing to FDA; and 4) collaborate with FDA, Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM), NARMS and state laboratory partners. Outcomes expected from this work include: 1) providing an increase in the total amount of Salmonella and Campylobacter isolates from retail meats that can be analyzed; 2) maintaining the ability to compare results to surveillance data and exchange information and test results; 3) providing an increase in the number of isolates of Campylobacter and Salmonella submitted to the FDA; and 4) increased collaboration and communication among partnering entities.
