Project Summary To help address the needs of the NARMS retail meat surveillance project, as a surveillance site, we will sample packages of retail poultry, beef and pork from a randomly generated list of grocery stores in the surrounding area. Aliquots from each of eighty monthly packages will be cultured for pathogens, Salmonella and Campylobacter, along with two indicator bacteria, E. coli and Enterococcus, to address potential resistance mechanisms which may be transferred to pathogens. The resulting isolates will be shipped monthly to FDA for species and serotype confirmation and antimicrobial susceptibility testing, with duplicate isolates maintained in our culture collection. We expect to have successfully sampled 960 packages of retail beef, pork, and poultry during each 12-month study period. We expect that these efforts will help to provide critical data to not only track the current state of antimicrobial resistance among foodborne pathogens and indicator bacteria found in retail meat, but also to impact future FDA policy and regulations and monitor the success of actions and interventions. In addition to our contributions to the retail food surveillance program, as a NARMS retail food participating laboratory we will be available to support foodborne disease outbreak investigation. We already have a close working relationship with the Ohio Department of Health laboratory and the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory. We will be available to directly support and extend their existing capability for outbreak investigation and sample process and testing. We also collaborate closely with the OSU Veterinary Medical Center Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory, which participates in the Vet-LIRN laboratory system, as does the ODA ADDL. Our existing close collaborations with these laboratories located in central Ohio will allow us to be effective as a NARMS retail food surveillance project laboratory, and to contribute to the support of other laboratories with related missions. An additional benefit of our participation in the NARMS retail food surveillance program is that we plan to engage multiple students from both the professional veterinary medicine and veterinary public health programs in this project. Students with an interest in food safety and antimicrobial resistance and stewardship will be able to gain laboratory experience and an understanding of the current antimicrobial resistance trends in foodborne pathogens. These students will then leave the university for careers in veterinary medicine and veterinary public health better trained in epidemiology, surveillance strategies, food safety and food microbiology, and public health practice.

项目摘要 为了帮助满足NARMS零售肉类监测项目的需要，作为一个监测点， 我们将从随机生成的杂货店名单中抽取零售家禽、牛肉和猪肉的包装样本， 周边地区的商店。将从80个月包中的每一个包中取出等分试样进行培养 对于病原体，沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌，沿着两种指示细菌，E.杆菌和 肠球菌，以解决潜在的耐药机制，可能转移到 病原体产生的分离株将每月运送至FDA进行种属和血清型检测 确认和抗菌药物敏感性测试，在我们的 文化收藏我们预计已成功抽取960包零售牛肉、猪肉和 在每12个月的研究期间， 我们预计，这些努力将有助于提供关键数据，不仅可以跟踪当前状态， 在零售店发现的食源性病原体和指示细菌中的抗菌素耐药性 肉类，但也影响未来的FDA政策和法规，并监测行动的成功 和干预措施。除了我们对零售食品监督计划的贡献外，作为一个 NARMS零售食品参与实验室，我们将提供支持食源性疾病 疫情调查。我们已经与俄亥俄州的部门建立了密切的工作关系 卫生实验室和俄亥俄州农业部动物疾病诊断 实验室我们将直接支持和扩展他们的现有能力， 疫情调查、样本处理和检测。我们还与OSU密切合作 兽医医学中心临床诊断实验室，参与Vet-LIRN 实验室系统，如ODA ADDL。我们与这些组织的密切合作 位于俄亥俄州中部的实验室将使我们能够有效地作为NARMS零售食品 监测项目实验室，并促进对其他实验室的支持， 相关任务。 我们参与NARMS零售食品监督计划的另一个好处是， 我们计划让来自专业兽医学和 在这个项目中的兽医公共卫生计划。对食品安全感兴趣的学生， 抗生素耐药性和管理将能够获得实验室经验， 了解目前食源性病原体的抗菌素耐药性趋势。这些 学生将离开大学从事兽医和兽医公共事业， 在流行病学、监测战略、食品安全和食品微生物学方面得到更好的卫生培训， 和公共卫生实践。
