Radiochemistry: Analytical Track Food Defense 2020 Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene FDA Laboratory Flexible Funding Model PAR-20-105 Project of Radiological Discipline Abstract/Summary Establishing a radiological baseline for the dairy products of Wisconsin The Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene (WSLH) is Wisconsin’s public and environmental health laboratory. As part of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the WSLH is committed to exploring new ideas and developing new programs to benefit the state and nation. The WSLH’s Radiochemistry unit has been a member of the Food and Drug Administration’s Food Emergency Response Network (FERN) for over twelve years. This agreement has enabled the WSLH radiochemistry department to maintain and enhance its testing capability and capacity for rapid and accurate response in the event of radiological food emergencies. The department has experience in gamma and alpha spectrometry, gas proportional counting, and liquid scintillation counting. The Radiochemistry unit uses only approved Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and FDA FERN Cooperative Agreement Program methodologies. The unit is certified and inspected by the EPA, a complete quality assurance and quality control program is maintained. This laboratory is not a regulatory laboratory for human or animal food, nor does it perform animal diagnostic laboratory services. According to the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, Wisconsin produced over 30 billion pounds of milk last year and is the country’s largest producer of dairy products. With the cessation of the EPA RadNet milk sampling program in November 2014, WSLH’s Radiochemistry unit is seeking to fill this deficit in the nation’s food monitoring by testing Wisconsin’s raw milk to further the FDA’s efforts to prevent foodborne exposures to contaminants from a radiological event. The program will focus on analysis of raw unpasteurized milk samples from the state’s dairy plants for gamma emitting isotopes, including 137Cs and 131I. All results obtained for this project would be reported to the nationally integrated science system FERN. Future goals include increasing the number of dairy plants beyond the initial scope of this project and expanding to incorporate alpha and beta emitters, such as americium, plutonium, and 90Sr.

放射化学：分析轨道食品防御2020 威斯康星州卫生实验室 FDA实验室灵活资金模型 20-105 PAR-105放射学纪律项目 摘要/摘要 建立威斯康星州乳制品的放射线基线 威斯康星州卫生实验室（WSLH）是威斯康星州的公共和环境 卫生实验室。作为威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的一部分，WSLH致力于 探索新的想法并制定新计划以使国家和国家受益。这 WSLH的放射化学部门一直是食品药品监督管理局食品的成员 紧急响应网络（FERN）超过十二年。本协议使 WSLH放射化学系可维护和增强其测试能力和能力 在放射食品紧急情况下快速，准确的反应。部门 具有伽马和α光谱，气体比例计数以及液体的经验 闪烁计数。放射化学单元仅使用批准的环境保护 代理商（EPA）和FDA Fern合作协议计划方法。单位是 由EPA认证和检查，完整的质量保证和质量控制计划是 维护。该实验室不是人类或动物食品的监管实验室，也不是 执行动物诊断实验室服务。 根据威斯康星州农业，贸易和消费者保护部 去年生产超过300亿磅的牛奶，是该国最大的乳制品生产商 产品。随着2014年11月EPA Radnet牛奶采样计划的停止， WSLH的放射化学部门正在寻求在美国的食品监测中填补这一辩护 测试威斯康星州的生牛奶，以进一步促进FDA的努力，以防止食源性暴露 放射线事件中的污染物。该计划将重点放在RAW的分析上 来自该州奶业植物的未经巴氏消毒的牛奶样品，用于发射伽马的同位素， 包括137℃和131i。该项目获得的所有结果将报告给全国 综合科学系统蕨类植物。未来的目标包括增加乳制品植物的数量 除了该项目的最初范围外，还扩展到结合Alpha和Beta发射器， 例如Americum，plutonium和90sr。
