Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services State Public Health Laboratory Project Abstract for FOA PAR-20-105 Laboratory Flexible Funding Model Purpose: The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) State Public Health Laboratory (MSPHL) seeks FDA cooperative agreement funding to increase capability and capacity in food testing areas where FDA has identified specific needs. The goals and outcomes of this cooperative agreement include the following: 1. The MSPHL, in support of Missouri’s manufactured food regulatory programs (MFRPS), will conduct testing of targeted food samples using validated test methods and a quality management system. 2. The test results generated by the MSPHL will be shared with Missouri’s MFRPS program and FDA partners. 3. The MSPHL will participate in small scale method development, method validation research and matrix extensions as requested by FDA. The expected outcome from the completion of the aims will be to protect the safety of the food supply and further increase public health. This project will strengthen and improve the collaboration of surveillance testing activities between the FDA, the Missouri MFRPS, and the MSPHL. Thus, advancing a national integrated food safety system. Page 1 of 1
