Description: The FDA/CFSAN is announcing its intention to award a cooperative agreement for continued support to the National Food and Nutrient Analysis Program (NFNAP). NFNAP was previously administered through the U. S. Department of Agriculture&apos;s (USDA&#8217;s) Methods and Application of Food Composition Laboratory (MAFCL) and was supported by FDA and other federal agencies. The objective is to continue the program through a new cooperative agreement with the FDA to provide a validated nutrient database for use by the scientific community, government agencies, and other stakeholders for monitoring and evaluating the dietary intake of specific nutrients and bioactive compounds in foods and dietary supplements. Under NFNAP, data for traditional nutrients are regularly updated while data for bioactive compounds of emerging scientific interest are added to the databases. In addition, NFNAP will continue to support research concerning the variability of nutrients in specific foods. The approach used by NFNAP includes analyzing sampled foods and dietary supplement units using state-of-the-art laboratory methodologies; incorporating rigorous quality control measures in the analysis and review of the data; and developing and validating new analytical procedures for phytochemicals and other food constituents, as needed.
