The West Virginia Department of Agriculture (WVDA) had 18 biological methods ISO 17025 accredited in August of 2018. ISO 17025 accreditation supports a strong management and technical structure in the laboratory. Accreditation has enhanced the laboratory in being recognized as an officially competent food testing laboratory with defensible results. Surveillance analysis is conducted on FDA products using the ISO accredited methods. The WVDA is seeking support through the FDA cooperative agreement to maintain and expand the methods in their scope of ISO 17025 accreditation. Listeria monocytogenes has been a pathogen identified in numerous foodborne outbreaks. Surveillance analysis will be conducted on FDA products throughout the program year for Listeria monocytogenes in deli salads, fresh cut produce and herbs. The FDA Biological Analytical Manual (BAM) cultural Listeria monocytogenes method will be added to the scope of accreditation in the program year. Sample results will be entered into the laboratory information management system (LIMS), and automatically uploaded into eLEXNET to share with other regulatory partners. The WVDA Microbiology Laboratory has been a participating member in the Food Emergency Response Network (FERN) since 2005 and actively tests for various pathogenic bacteria in foods, environmental samples, and food contact surfaces. Since 2010, the WVDA has been a FSIS cooperative agreement recipient to participate in FERN directed activities such as surveillance testing, method development, exercises and proficiencies. In 2016, the WVDA Microbiology Laboratory was awarded the Level 1 cooperative agreement to conduct microbiological and chemical analysis. ISO accreditation has supported the efforts to have legally defensible data for FERN response. With inclusion in the ISO/IEC 17025 cooperative agreement program the WVDA commits to maintaining ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, expanding the scope of accreditation, and conducting surveillance activities with FDA products which will aid in protecting the nation’s food supply.

西弗吉尼亚州农业部（WVDA）有18种生物方法， 2018年8月通过ISO 17025认证。ISO 17025认证支持强大的 实验室的管理和技术结构。认证提高了 实验室被认可为正式合格的食品检测实验室， 可辩护的结果。使用ISO对FDA产品进行监督分析 认可的方法。WVDA正在通过FDA合作寻求支持 在ISO 17025范围内保持和扩展方法的协议 认可。 单核细胞增生李斯特菌是一种在许多食源性疾病中发现的病原体， 爆发将在整个过程中对FDA产品进行监督分析。 熟食沙拉、鲜切农产品和草药中单核细胞增生李斯特菌的项目年。 FDA生物分析手册（BAM）培养单核细胞增生李斯特菌方法 将在计划年度加入认证范围。样本结果将 输入实验室信息管理系统（LIMS），并自动 上传到eLEXNET，与其他监管合作伙伴共享。 WVDA微生物学实验室一直是 自2005年以来，食品紧急反应网络（FERN）积极测试各种 食品、环境样品和食品接触表面中的致病菌。以来 2010年，WVDA成为FSIS合作协议的接受者， FERN指导的活动，如监督测试、方法开发、演习 和professor。2016年，WVDA微生物学实验室被授予一级 进行微生物和化学分析的合作协定。ISO 认证支持了为FERN提供合法数据的努力 反应 随着ISO/IEC 17025合作协议计划的加入，WVDA 致力于保持ISO/IEC 17025认证，扩大 认证，并对FDA产品进行监督活动，这将有助于 保护国家的粮食供应。
