Project Summary Abstract The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) is seeking funding from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration under PAR-22-063 to support the Department's Office of Laboratory Services, Lynchburg Regional Animal Health Laboratory (RAHL)'s capability to rapidly detect, identify and enumerate pathogens in animals, animal feed, drugs and other substrates. The amount of funding requested is $ 30,000. The VDACS, Office of Laboratory Services, Lynchburg RAHL meets all requirements to be eligible for this funding. The Lynchburg RAHL is a participating laboratory in the Veterinary Laboratory Investigation and Response Network (Vet-LIRN). It has met the requirements for Vet-LIRN participation, successfully completing several proficiency tests for microbiological testing since becoming a member laboratory in 2015. The microbiological testing that falls under the Vet-LIRN mission is accredited to ISO 17025 standards by the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA). The Lynchburg RAHL utilizes the USALims Laboratory Information Management System, which can integrate electronic reporting and data summaries into forms that can be utilized by the Vet-LIRN Program Office (PO), thereby providing rapid testing results during case investigations of potential animal, food or drug adulteration or contamination. Funding from this opportunity is being requested to widen, improve and develop testing capabilities within the Lynchburg RAHL that would make it better able to respond to both routine surveillance assignments with the Vet-LIRN, as well as to larger scale animal/food/drug emergencies requiring enhanced surge capacity. The Lynchburg RAHL would upgrade obsolete testing equipment and methods for microbiological identification of organisms, for detecting antimicrobial susceptibilities of organisms, for supporting testing of animal/feed/drug substrates, and for expanding the existing capabilities of testing. In addition, it would add the capability for enumeration of bacteria, yeasts and molds in animal/feed/drug substrates. This increased capability would also allow for participation in additional projects and/or method validation as determined by the Vet-LIRN PO. Other activities would include using funds to further efforts to adhere and maintain its A2LA accreditation status, as well as take advantage of training opportunities and Vet-LIRN meetings.

项目摘要 弗吉尼亚州农业和消费者服务部（VDACS）正在寻求资金 根据PAR-22-063从美国食品和药物管理局获得资金，以支持该部的 实验室服务办公室，林奇堡地区动物卫生实验室（RAHL） 能够快速检测、识别和计数动物、动物饲料、药物中的病原体 和其它衬底。所要求的资金数额为30，000美元。 VDACS，实验室服务办公室，林奇堡RAHL符合所有要求， 有资格获得这笔资金。林奇堡RAHL是兽医实验室的参与实验室。 实验室调查和反应网络。它满足了以下要求： Vet-LIRN参与，成功完成了微生物的几项能力测试 自2015年成为会员实验室以来，属于福尔斯的微生物测试 Vet-LIRN使命是由美国协会认可的ISO 17025标准， 实验室认证（A2 LA）。林奇堡RAHL利用USALims实验室 信息管理系统，可整合电子报告和数据摘要 Vet-LIRN计划办公室（PO）可以使用的形式，从而提供快速 在调查潜在的动物、食品或药物掺假案件期间的检测结果，或 污染. 目前正在请求利用这一机会提供资金，以扩大、改进和发展测试 林奇堡RAHL内的能力，使其能够更好地响应例行 与Vet-LIRN以及更大规模的动物/食品/药物的监测任务 需要加强快速部署能力的紧急情况。林奇堡RAHL将升级过时的 微生物鉴定用试验设备和方法 微生物的抗微生物能力，用于支持动物/饲料/药物基质的测试， 以及扩展现有的测试能力。此外，它还将增加以下能力： 动物/饲料/药物基质中细菌、酵母菌和霉菌的计数。这种增加的 能力也将允许参与额外的项目和/或方法验证， 由Vet-LIRN PO确定。其他活动将包括利用资金进一步努力， 坚持并保持其A2 LA认证地位，并利用培训 机会和Vet-LIRN会议。
