This FDA guidance, Guidance - PET Drugs — Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP), is intended to help positron emission tomography (PET) drug producers better understand FDA’s thinking concerning compliance with the current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) regulations. The guidance addresses resources, procedures, and documentation for all PET drug production facilities, academic and commercial. In some cases, the guidance provides practical examples of methods or procedures that PET drug production facilities can use to comply with the CGMP requirements.

FDA Advice About Pet Turtles And Salmonella Risk

Turtles may look like cute pets, but it is estimated that they are responsible for over 70,000 cases of Salmonella infections every year in this country. Some of these infections can be serious or even fatal. In one case, a four week-old infant died of a Salmonella infection that was traced to a pet turtle in the home. In another case, two teenage girls became very ill after they swam in an unchlorinated family pool where pet turtles had been allowed to swim. Read or watch the FDA information about this, FDA report on Potentially Fatal Salmonella Infections from Pet Turtles. Personally, I had trouble viewing the video. But even with that, the text information is still valuable.

When I saw this headline for the first time, my imagination ran wild and I wondered if people got sick eating the pet food. It turns out it's more about bacterial contamination, as reported by this MSNBC news article, "Pet food sickened at least 79 people, CDC says Kibble tainted with rare salmonella may still be in homes, agency warns." In a nutshell, the contaminated pet food can make people sick if they handle the pet food, especially the very young and very old, and it causes bloody diarrhea. For this reason, the CDC is telling us to be aware that all dry pet food, pet treats, and pet supplements might be contaminated with bacteria like Salmonella, and that precautions should be taken with all brands of dry pet food, treats, and supplements.
