FDA Veterinary Laboratory Investigation and Response Network Cooperative Agreement Program

项目摘要/摘要 食品和药物管理局(FDA)兽医实验室反应网络(VET-VET)的目标 LIRN)合作协议计划是为了能够对动物诊断样本、动物 需要进行实验室检查或浪涌试验以进行相关分析的食品和动物药物 研究和测试微生物或化学污染，无论是通过故意或 非故意的手段。 该计划将通过支持新的 和快速分析技术，并提供设备齐全和配备人员的实验室设施。这个 结果将导致Vet-LIRN实验室研究和调查潜力的能力增加 通过促进培训、使用新技术和改进，暴发动物食源性疾病 合作伙伴关系的有效性。 该计划提供的资金可以为实验室提供基础设施，以增强其 微生物和化学方法的测试能力。这些合作协议 还旨在扩大对网络的参与，以提高联邦、州、地方和部落的粮食 安全和安保工作。

Project Summary/Abstract The objective of this Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Veterinary Laboratory Response Network (Vet- LIRN) Cooperative Agreement Program is to enable the analyses of animal diagnostic samples, animal foods, and animal drugs when laboratory investigations or surge testing are needed for analyses related to research and testing of microbiological or chemical contamination, either through intentional or unintentional means. This program will increase the ability to conduct investigations via laboratory analysis by supporting new and rapid analytical techniques and providing for well-equipped and staff laboratory facilities. The outcomes will result in increased Vet-LIRN laboratory research and capacity to investigate potential animal foodborne illness outbreaks by fostering training, the use of new technologies, and improving the effectiveness of collaborative partnerships. Funding offered by this program can provide laboratories with the infrastructure to enhance their testing capabilities for both microbiological and chemical methodologies. These cooperative agreements are also intended to expand participation in networks to enhance Federal, State, local, and tribal food safety and security efforts.
