FDA FERN Cooperative Agreement Continuation Program (U18)

项目摘要 从1999-2014年，食品安全实验室(FSL)，动物健康和食品安全中心(The 新墨西哥州立大学(NMSU)与食品和药物管理局(FDA)密切合作 美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)田野科学办公室负责各种食品安全和防御任务。 FDA要求我们对快速检测方法进行评估、分析和验证。我们已经改进了 许多细菌分析手册(BAM)方法，并为快速方法提供了验证数据 已经由FDA区域实验室实施。FDA还在以下方面进行了改进 食品应急网络(FERN)成员实验室的分析方法。 我们直接参与了许多费恩任务的目标。我们为您提供实验室外展服务 新墨西哥州立大学为种植者和食品加工商提供农业项目。我们有 在方法开发和验证方面有丰富经验。通过新墨西哥合作社 推广服务计划，我们为种植者和食品加工商提供食品安全和 防守。我们使用BAM和新的快速测试方法进行定期的能力测试和验证。 如有要求，我们会参与监视活动。我们是电子实验室的成员 交换网络(ELEXNET)电子通信计划。我们被选中参加 参与FDA全基因组计划，并已获得Illumina MiSqe台式测序仪，并将 获得3年的补给，以支持我们的排序工作。 当我们被选为蕨类MCAP实验室时，我们提高了我们的能力，并希望继续 为蕨类计划服务，以检测和识别当地、州和地区食品中的威胁因素 并成为国家的一项服务。 作为蕨类MCAP实验室，我们打算继续： 1)熟练掌握从MCAP收到的设备 2)对实验室工作人员进行适当的培训3 3)应FERN国家项目办公室的要求，参加FDA/FERN的所有活动 (NPO)

Project Summary From 1999-2014, the Food Safety Laboratory (FSL), Center for Animal Health, and Food Safety (The Center) at New Mexico State University (NMSU) has worked closely with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Office of Field Science on a variety of food safety and defense assignments. We were tasked by the FDA to evaluate, analyze and validate rapid test methods. We have improved many Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM) methods and provided validation data for rapid methods that have been implemented by FDA Regional Laboratories. FDA has also distributed improvements in analytical methods to Food Emergency Response Network (FERN) member laboratories. We are directly involved in many of the FERN mission objectives. We provide laboratory outreach with New Mexico State University agricultural programs to growers and food processors. We have demonstrated experience in method development and validation. Through the New Mexico Cooperative Extension Service Programs, we provide training to growers and food processors in food safety and defense. We perform regular proficiency testing and validation with BAM and new rapid test methods. When requested, we participate in surveillance activities. We are a member of the Electronic Laboratory Exchange Network (eLEXNET) Program for electronic communications. We were selected to participate in the FDA Whole Genome Project and have obtained an illumina MiSqe benchtop sequencer and will receive 3 years of supplies to support our sequencing efforts. When we were selected as a FERN MCAP lab, we increased our capabilities and hope to continue to serve the FERN program in detecting and identifying threat agents in food at the local, state, and federal levels and be a service to the nation. As a FERN MCAP lab, we intend to continue to: 1) Develop proficiency in the equipment received from the MCAP 2) Obtain appropriate training for laboratory staff 3 3) Participate in all FDA/FERN activities as requested by the FERN National Program Office (NPO)
