NJDA Animal Health Diagnostic Lab - FDA CVM Veterinary Diagnostic Program Co-operative Agreement to Protect Public Health

项目摘要 动物健康诊断实验室（AHDL）在新泽西农业部 （NJDA）寻求参与兽医中心（CVM）的兽医诊断 实验室计划。该项目的目的是提高基础设施的能力， AHDL应对涉及受污染动物食品或药物的潜在爆发或事件。 NJDA AHDL参加CVM兽医诊断实验室的目的 该计划是为了获得设备，用品，人员和培训，在标准化测试 方法论。 AHDL将通过参与样本分析、尸检和 组织病理学服务。AHDL将参与方法开发、方法验证， 动物食品/药物防御任务，组织/载玻片共享，细菌分离物共享，培训， 和能力验证。AHDL将根据需要提供浪涌能力， Vet-LIRN/FDA在发生大规模微生物或化学恐怖主义或自然 影响动物食品或药品的病原体爆发事件。AHDL将 与兽医分享方法开发、方法验证和基质扩展研究的结果， LIRN计划办公室（VPO）和由VPO确定的网络实验室。AHDL将 还提供抗菌药物敏感性和全基因组测序能力，包括 共享敏感性数据和相关元数据。 AHDL要求实验室人员配备、设备、设施和专业知识， 履行兽医委员会兽医诊断实验室方案规定的义务。

Project Summary The Animal Health Diagnostic Laboratory (AHDL) at the New Jersey Department of Agriculture (NJDA) seeks to participate in the Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM)’s Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory Program. The aim of the project is to improve the infrastructure capabilities of the AHDL to respond to potential outbreaks or incidents involving contaminated animal food or drug. The NJDA AHDL’s objective in participating in the CVM Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory program is to obtain the equipment, supplies, personnel, and training in standardized testing methodologies. The AHDL will participate in case investigations by engaging in sample analyses, necropsy, and histopathology services. The AHDL will participate in method development, method validation, animal food/drug defense assignments, tissue/slides sharing, bacterial isolates sharing, training, and proficiency testing when available. The AHDL will provide surge capacity as needed by the Vet-LIRN/FDA in the event of a large-scale microbiological or chemical terrorism or natural pathogenic organism outbreak events affecting animal food or drug products. The AHDL will share results of method development, method validation, and matrix extension studies with Vet- LIRN Program Office (VPO) and network laboratories as determined by the VPO. The AHDL will also provide antimicrobial susceptibility and whole genome sequencing capabilities including sharing the susceptibility data and relevant metadata. The AHDL has required laboratory staffing, equipment, facilities, and professional expertise to fulfill its obligations under the CVM Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory program.
