FDA FERN Cooperative Agreement Continuation Program (U18) RFA-FD-15-019 Proposal Abstract The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) Microbiology Laboratory is eager to continue as an FDA FERN-funded microbiology laboratory, as well as continue as an active participant in the creation of the nations’ Integrated Food Safety System. The WSDA Microbiology Laboratory seeks five years of funding through the FDA FERN Cooperative Agreement Program for a total of $1,199,824. The Microbiology Laboratory currently participates in three food testing programs: WSDA state-directed Food Safety program, and Animal Feed program, and the FDA-FERN Microbiological Cooperative Agreement Program. Accomplishments and attributes The WSDA Microbiology Laboratory:  Conducts an average of 15,000 individual tests on over 6,000 food, feed, environmental and dairy samples under our state directed food safety program.  Is eligible to apply for this Cooperative Agreement Program since we currently receive funding under the FDA FERN MCAP. The WSDA Microbiology Laboratory has proven itself a successful partner under the 2009-2012 & 2012-2015 FDA FERN Microbiological Cooperative Agreements, having completed all assignments successfully and on-time. Our Laboratory’s FERN-Microbiologist took a leading role in research projects under the agreement in the past several years.  Has a long-standing relationship with WSDA Food Safety Program’s samplers. For over fifteen years these samplers have demonstrated competence in aseptic sampling techniques and adherence to the strict sampling guidelines of USDA AMS-MDP Project.  Microbiologists are knowledgeable and experienced in multiple food matrices, pathogens, toxins and various testing environments.  Provides testing support under WSDA’s FDA-funded Rapid Response Team Cooperative Agreement and has responded to many Washington State food poisoning cases: Salmonella from Trader Joe’s Peanut Butter, environmental samples from a custom meat slaughtering facility, and Listeria monocytogenes found in Snoqualmie Gourmet Ice Cream to name a few recent incidents. FDA-FERN MCAP was instrumental in these efforts.  Has the necessary space to continue supporting the additional work associated with this project. If funded, we propose to continue supporting a microbiologist dedicated to meeting the requirements of this Cooperative Agreement.  Is located in a strategic geographic area of the United States. Washington State is home to several major international shipping ports, through which nearly $15.1 billion in food and agricultural products were exported in 2013. The Port of Seattle, the state’s largest city and port, is the gateway port for all Asian and Canadian trade.  Has a mission statement which fits well with this project mission-: “to serve the people of Washington by supporting the agricultural community and promoting consumer and environmental protection”.  Has been accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2005 since 2011 If our FERN proposal is accepted, we are willing AND able to address all three project areas incorporated in this Cooperative Agreement: 1. Participate in FDA/FERN sample analysis 2. Provide analytical data for potential regulatory utilization 3. Participate in small-scale method development, method validation and matrix extension work as determined by FERN NPO Using the following three key techniques defined in this Cooperative Agreement: 1. Various standardized cultural and biochemical analytical methods 2. Various standardized serological analytical methods 3. Various standardized molecular analytical methods for the detection and identification of food-borne pathogens.

FDA FERN 合作协议延续计划 (U18) RFA-FD-15-019 提案摘要 华盛顿州农业部 (WSDA) 微生物学实验室渴望继续作为 FDA FERN 资助的微生物学实验室，并继续积极参与创建 国家综合食品安全系统。 WSDA 微生物学实验室寻求五年资助 通过 FDA FERN 合作协议计划，总额为 1,199,824 美元。微生物实验室 目前参与三个食品检测计划：WSDA 国家指导的食品安全计划和动物测试计划 饲料计划和 FDA-FERN 微生物合作协议计划。 成就和特点 WSDA 微生物学实验室：  对 6,000 多种食品、饲料、环境和乳制品平均进行 15,000 次单独测试 根据我们国家指导的食品安全计划提供样品。  有资格申请此合作协议计划，因为我们目前收到的资金来自 FDA 蕨类植物 MCAP。 WSDA 微生物实验室已证明自己是一个成功的合作伙伴 根据 2009-2012 年和 2012-2015 年 FDA FERN 微生物合作协议， 成功并按时完成了所有作业。我们实验室的 FERN 微生物学家采取了 过去几年在该协议项下的研究项目中发挥主导作用。  与 WSDA 食品安全计划的采样员有着长期的合作关系。十五年来 这些取样器已证明了无菌取样技术的能力并遵守 USDA AMS-MDP 项目严格的采样指南。  微生物学家在多种食品基质、病原体、毒素和 各种测试环境。  根据 WSDA 资助的快速响应团队合作协议提供测试支持 并对华盛顿州的多起食物中毒案件做出了回应：来自 Trader Joe's 的沙门氏菌 花生酱、来自定制肉类屠宰设施的环境样本和李斯特菌 斯诺夸尔米美食冰淇淋中发现了单核细胞增多症，仅举几个最近发生的事件为例。 FDA-FERN MCAP 在这些努力中发挥了重要作用。  拥有必要的空间来继续支持与该项目相关的额外工作。如果 获得资助后，我们建议继续支持一位致力于满足以下要求的微生物学家 本合作协议。  位于美国的战略地理区域。华盛顿州拥有数个 主要国际航运港口，运送近151亿美元的粮食和农产品 2013 年出口。西雅图港是该州最大的城市和港口，是所有港口的门户港口 亚洲和加拿大贸易。  有一个与该项目使命非常契合的使命宣言：“为华盛顿人民服务 通过支持农业社区并促进消费者和环境保护”。  自 2011 年起已获得 ISO/IEC 17025:2005 认证 如果我们的 FERN 提案被接受，我们愿意并且能够解决纳入的所有三个项目领域 本合作协议： 1. 参与FDA/FERN样品分析 2. 为潜在的监管利用提供分析数据 3. 参与小规模方法开发、方法验证和矩阵扩展 FERN NPO 确定的工作 使用本合作协议中定义的以下三个关键技术： 1. 各种标准化的培养和生化分析方法 2. 各种标准化血清学分析方法 3. 各种标准化的分子分析方法用于检测和 食源性病原体的鉴定。
