## Abstract

Project Summary/Abstract: Discipline D, Track 3 
FDA LFFM (U19), FOA PAR-20-105 
The primary goal of this project under Discipline D Track 3 (Method Development / 
Validation) is to contribute to the validation of new analytical methods or matrices for food 
testing by participating in the multi-laboratory and single-laboratory validation of chemical 
analysis methods requested FDA. The method validation activities will be conducted 
following the guidelines published by FDA FVM Program. Food and Drug Laboratory of 
CDPH is capable of taking part in a variety of possible methods and matrices that include 
immunochemical-based kits for histamine, ICP-MS for arsenic speciation and general 
metals in seafood and drinking water, and LC/MS/MS for veterinary drug residue in dairy 
or meat products and pesticide residue in food. The adoption of the new test methods will 
strengthen and improve the food testing toolbox and enhance the existing food safety and 
security program both locally and nationally.
