As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to grow both globally and domestically, the Agri-Food sector is showing concomitant growth as the demand for food rises, leading to enhanced microbiological risks along the food supply chain. It is imperative to assay formulations, in addition to other surrogate microorganisms, for the Agri-Food sector to ensure microbiologically-safe food for Canadians. In partnership with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) and BC Center for Disease Control (BCCDC), the long-term goal of the proposed project at UBC is to provide evidence-based disinfectant guidelines to the Agri-Food sector that will effectively tackle the current and potential crisis associated with coronaviruses. The guidelines and knowledge translation materials from this project will be used continuously to the broader agricultural sector and to the public is achieved through web-based channels and various electronic or print news media. In addition, local and national KT staff provide direct transfer of new knowledge/technologies to stakeholders in specific sectors through regular consultations and participation in industry-led events.

随着COVID-19大流行在全球和国内持续蔓延，随着食品需求的增加，农业食品行业也随之增长，导致食品供应链上的微生物风险沿着增加。除了其他替代微生物外，农业食品部门还必须对配方进行检测，以确保加拿大人的微生物安全食品。 与加拿大农业和农业食品（AAFC）和BC疾病控制中心（BCCDC）合作，UBC拟议项目的长期目标是为农业食品部门提供基于证据的消毒剂指南，以有效应对与冠状病毒相关的当前和潜在危机。 该项目的指导方针和知识翻译材料将继续用于更广泛的农业部门，并通过网络渠道和各种电子或印刷新闻媒体向公众提供。此外，当地和国家知识转让工作人员通过定期磋商和参加行业主导的活动，向具体部门的利益攸关方直接转让新知识/技术。
