Grant Description
An applicant's eligibility under this grant program is unrestricted, however, we do not have the authority to make awards to individuals. FDA is committed to reducing the incidence of foodborne illness to the greatest extent feasible and to protecting the integrity of the nation's food supply. We wish to promote the development of improved techniques for either the detection, control, or analysis of microbiological agents, toxins, and chemicals in food or cosmetics in four research project areas. They are: 1. Develop food security rapid screening analytical methods capable of detecting 100 to 10,000 microbial pathogens/g of food, without pregrowth or selective enrichment and a total elapsed time of less than 6 hours (sample preparation time included). 2. Develop PCR-based methods for the purpose of providing rapid, confirmatory identification of microbial pathogens that are usually not associated with food and foodborne illness. 3. Develop rapid screening methods capable of detecting a broad range of nontraditional chemical and toxin adulterants. 4. Develop improved equipment, software, procedures, and/or methods for the determination of radionuclide contamination in foods.
