Project Summary The Kansas Department of Agriculture Laboratory aims to help create a national, fully integrated food safety system by expanding our testing capabilities in both Microbiology and Chemistry as well as increase sample throughput in both human and animal product testing. The Laboratory serves as the primary servicing lab for the Food Safety and Lodging (FS&L) and Dairy and Feed Safety (DFS) programs. Continued laboratory accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 will allow for a complete quality system to ensure defensible analytical results are put forth. The accreditation attests to the competency and technical capabilities of a laboratory to perform certain tasks and supports traceability of data generated. The collaboration between the regulatory programs and the laboratory will play an integral role in achieving an integrated national food safety system.
HHS’ Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System (TAGGS) website provides access to detailed descriptions of grants, loans, aggregated direct payments and other types of financial assistance awarded by the HHS Operating Divisions (OPDIVs) and the Office of the Secretary Staff Divisions (STAFFDIVs).
