食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊  據(jù)美國(guó)食品安全新聞網(wǎng)消息，2013年9月1日美國(guó)疾控中心開始與食品藥品管理局合作，共同利用全基因組測(cè)序網(wǎng)絡(luò)對(duì)李斯特菌疫情進(jìn)行分析。雙方的合作充分利用了公共衛(wèi)生資源，以此推動(dòng)全基因組測(cè)序技術(shù)在全美公共衛(wèi)生試驗(yàn)室的日常檢測(cè)當(dāng)中開展。

    In a prior APHLTech blog post （NGS in Action: FDA's Genome TRAKR Network）， Victor Waddell of the Arizona State Public Health Laboratory described the newly formed network of laboratories formed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration （FDA）。 Known collectively as Genome TRAKR, the member laboratories perform whole genome sequencing （WGS） on bacterial foodborne pathogens isolated primarily from food and environmental sources.

    On Sept. 1, 2013, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention （CDC） began a partnership with the FDA Genome TRAKR network to utilize the network to conduct WGS of all Listeria monocytogenes collected from reported human illness cases in the United States. This effort leverages public health resources to evaluate and potentially move this promising new technology forward for more routine use in public health laboratories nationwide.
