Non Technical Summary
The Food Animal Residue Avoidance Databank (FARAD) program is a national food safety program funded since 1982 by USDA and is a collaborative effort with five regional centers: Kansas State University (KSU), North Carolina State University, University of California, Davis, University of Florida, and Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine. The goal of FARAD is to provide the most updated information and scientific tools to help the production of safe foods of animal origin. The program accomplishes this goal through its objectives: (1) to identify, extract, assemble, evaluate and distribute reviewed information about residue avoidance and mitigation to people involved in residue avoidance programs; (2) to develop tools that allow people to predict proper withdrawal intervals after extralabel drug use. To continue to fulfill the mission of FARAD, during 2019-2020, the specific objectives at KSU include: (1) to develop a Physiological Parameter Database in several food animal species, including cattle, swine, goats, sheep, chickens, and turkeys, (2) to develop a centralized physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) platform for drugs in food animals, (3) to continue optimizng a PBPK model for flunixin in cattle, (4) to expand FARAD databases to develop global connection, and (5) to develop a HTML webpage and an artificial intelligence system for global FARAD program. The proposed research is important as it will provide tools for FARAD responders to calculate withdrawal intervals after extralabel drug use in different food animal species, which is needed because AMDUCA permits extralabel drug use in food animals by veterinarians.

Goals / Objectives
The goal of the national FARAD program is to protect the American public by promoting the production of safe, animal-derived human food products (milk, eggs, meat, honey, etc.) that are devoid of violative or potentially unsafe chemical residues,including drugs, pesticides, environmental contaminants, natural toxins and other harmful substances.There are six specific objectives of the national FARAD program: (1) extraction and validation of data for incorporation into the system and support for FARAD's approved drug databases for publication in electronic format (VetGRAM) for internet-based delivery, including extraction of relevant data from foreign drug compendia and gFARAD partners, (2) operation of the Regional Access Centers (RAC's) at NCSU, VMCVM and UCD for provision of residue avoidance information, with access through the toll-free hotline and online submission form, (3) data entry, pharmacokinetic analysis, maintenance, and distribution of the FARAD files, (4) preparation of FARAD Digests for publication in the Journal of the AVMA, newsletters and FARAD fact sheets/species information web based pages, (5) education of veterinarians on drug residue avoidance, and (6) continued development and validation of methods to allow extrapolative techniques to be used in providing information and advice in situations where no direct data currently exists, as is typically required for nearly all environmental contaminant exposures.The goal of the KSU component of the FARAD program is to develop web-based interface platform and databases that allow FARAD responders to calculate drug withdrawal intervals after extralabel use of different drugs in different food animal species real time.There are five specific objectives of the KSU component of the FARAD program: (1) to develop a Physiological ParameterDatabase in several food animal species, including cattle, swine, goats, sheep, chickens, and turkeys, (2) to develop a centralized physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) platform for drugs in food animals, (3) to continue optimizng a PBPK model for flunixin in cattle, (4) to expand FARAD databases to develop global connection, and (5) to develop a HTML webpage and an artificial intelligence system for global FARAD program.
Project Methods
The proposed PBPK models will be developed based on pharmacokinetic data from the FARAD database using Berkeley Madonna (Version 8, University of California at Berkeley, CA).The web-based interface will be developed using R Shiny (a web-based visualization platform for R language).The developed PBPK models will be evaluated with independent pharmacokinetic data that were not used in the model development according to the PBPK model evaluation criteria from the World Health Organization.The results of the model-predicted withdrawal interval will be evaluated and interpreted by comparing with the labeled withdrawal period after drug administration at the labeled dose.The proposed 1Data database and the HTML webpage will be connected to the existing FARAD database to develop global connection.The efforts of the Principal Director, Co-Principal Director, Postdoctoral Fellows, and Research Assistant will be mainly focused on computational PBPK modeling and database development.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? We have completed a Physiological Parameter Database for PBPK modeling in six food animal species, including cattle, swine, sheep, goats, chickens, and turkey. This database has been linked to the FARAD website. We have built a new web-based PBPK interface for oxytetracycline in sheep and goats. We have built a new web-based PBPK interface for meloxicam in broiler chickens and laying hens. We have built a generic PBPK interface that can perform simulations for multiple drugs (i.e., penicillin G, flunixin, and florfenicol) in two major food animal species (cattle and swine). We have expandedFARAD databases to develop global connection using navigation systems from HTML, XML, or pdf files and started developing artificial intelligence system for global FARAD program.

What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Dr. Zhoumeng Lin and all his lab members moved from Kansas State University to University of Florida in May 2021. Dr. Lin and his lab members will continue to complete this project at UF. Based on the advice from USDA Program Director, Dr. Lin has been working to subaward the PBPK component of this project from KSU to UF. UF sent all subaward documents to KSU Grant Office several months ago. Unfortunately, there is a delay at the KSU Grant Office, and UF has not received this subaward yet. In order not to delay the project, Dr. Lin and his lab members have been continuing working on this project, and Dr. Lin's lab members are now paid by departmental funds with the permission of his departmental chair. Dr. Lin will keep sending reminders to KSU Grant Office to request their help to process the subaward request. Dr Jaberi-Douraki is currentlyworking on three papers to be submitted early next year. 1. Data extraction: Designing a web crawling/navigating system 2. Prediction of missing/unavailable MRLs for veterinary drugs 3. Global trends in antimicrobial use in food animals

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? We have completed the literature review project on physiological parameters for PBPK modeling of drugs in six food animal species, including cattle, swine, sheep, goats, chickens, and turkeys. We have developed a Physiological Parameter Database for these six food animal species. This database has been linked to the FARAD website. We have built a new PBPK model for flunixin in finishing-age swine. We have finalized a data collecting framework/agreement for global database including Taiwan Drug Data related to the drug's withdrawal time. We are also working on the development of the HTML webpage and artificial intelligence system for global FARAD program (https://1data.life/gFARAD/gFARAD.php).?

Outputs
Target Audience:FARAD's immediate clients are practicing veterinarians, regulators, extension officers, producers, and researchers, but it ultimately protects the food consuming public and contributes to human Public Health by equipping these professionals with the best science available. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?This project has provided opportunities for training and professional development for one graduate student. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?See data above on call center and internet access which is the primary route for information dissemination for FARAD. We also published our research in peer-reviewed journals (see the Products page). After the COVID-19 pandemic is over, we will continue to present our research findings in local, regional, and national meetings, including the Annual Meeting of Society of Toxicology as we normally do. In addition, we have been developing an Intelligent Medicine Recommender System (IMRS) named 1DrugAssist (www.1data.life and https://1data.olathe.ksu.edu/drugassist/) for humans and animals to reduce the risk level associated with commonly used drugs. 1DrugAssist, partly supported by the USDA FARAD grant, is built via multiple machine learning predictive models regarding different targets such as death, hospitalization, and disability records. The IMRS database has been curated with the FDA Adverse Event Reports for Animal Drugs and Devices and Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) for Human Drugs and empowered by DrugBank database, PubChem, and MedDRA (Internationally standardized medical terminology). This has received considerable media coverageincluding Brakke Consulting (The Experts in Animal Health), BioNexus KC, J. Harvey, and One Health Commission. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?We plan to continue working on the literature review on physiological parameters in food-producing animals, including the sheep, goat, chicken, and turkey. We will try to finish the Physiological Parameter Databases for six commonly used food animal species, including cattle, swine, sheep, goat, chicken, and turkey. We will also develop a centralized PBPK model platform that can be used to run PBPK simulations for different drugs in different food animal species. Regarding gFARAD, we are planning to develop AI tools for building the global database. It is in our expectation that this task may take time as it is not a defined analysis.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? Accomplishments of the overall FARAD Program: The overall use of FARAD program services has demonstrated remarkable growth throughout the past five years in terms of both the number of residue-related questions received via our telephone hotline plus our internet-based portal as well as the number of visits to our web-based information resources at www.farad.org. FARAD has continued to operate its telephone hot-line and e-mail access systems throughout the past year, which produced continued growth in the number of calls compared to the previous year. During 2019, the regional access centers answered 3,765 specific inquiries (entailing multiple drugs/contaminants) that directly involved approximately 6.1 million animals. Given the amount of list-serve sharing of FARAD's answers, these calls most likely indirectly impacted other sets of animals, which are unquantifiable. The majority of these inquiries were submitted via the World Wide Web and remain focused on small production poultry (34%) followed by dairy and beef cattle (20%), then small ruminants (28%), swine (13%), rabbits (1%) and other (2%). Depending on species, each request may impact either a single animal or large herds or flocks. In addition to specific cases that were submitted via the hot-line, users sought general information on drug and residue avoidance. The reasons for calls are very diverse and range from "ordinary requests" for drug withdrawal recommendations (related to extra-label drug use or accidental drug overdoses) to "extraordinary requests", which include pesticide and contaminant exposures. Use of the web-based resources at www.farad.org grew tremendously in 2019, with 72,096 users making 111,783 visits (daily average of 306 visits), representing a more than 43% increase over the previous year. Of these visitors, 53,828 (75%) originated from IP addresses located within the United States, up 44% from 37,363 in the previous year. The proportion of visitors originating from outside the US (25%) increased marginally from 22% in 2018, a trend observed for the first time in the previous reporting period. In total, website visits originated from a total of 174 countries, with the top ten numbers of non-US visitors being from (high to low) Canada, India, United Kingdom, Australia, China, Philippines, Japan, France and Mexico. One continued trend in 2019 was a high demand for the internet-based VetGRAM platform (352 visits per day). Other highly viewed pages on the FARAD website included the Withdrawal Interval (WDI) Recommendation Lookup, the Withdrawal Date Calculator, the Restricted and Prohibited Drugs page and Extra-Label Drug Use information pages. During 2019, new installs of our free VetGRAM apps continued at similar levels to 2018 for both Android phones (502 active installs) and the iOS-based app for iPhones (460 active installs). Although most interaction with FARAD occurs via the modalities described above, FARAD users also followed us on Facebook (119) and Twitter (73). Several species- or topic-specific web pages added in recent years provide resources for users with specific interests. A Spanish language option was added to the FARAD website in 2018; in 2019, there were 1,334 visits to the translated pages. Accomplishments of the KSU component of the FARAD Program: Under the goals and specific objectives of the KSU component of the FARAD program described above, the following projects have been completed, including (1) we have completed the Physiological Parameter Databases for PBPK modeling in cattle and swine, (2) we are working on the Physiological Parameter Databases for PBPK modeling in chickens, turkeys, sheep, and goats, (3) we have completed the PBPK model for flunixin in swine and cattle, and (4) We are developing a centralized PBPK modeling platform for drugs in various food-producing animals. In addition, we have been working on the technology development to clean and parse the global FARAD database. A task was partly performed to scan pdf documents to extract sensitivity information of bio-assay test related to matrix and tolerance data. We also finalized a data collecting framework/agreement for Taiwan Drug Data related to the drug's withdrawal time. This agreement comprises of several fields for the data collection including Drug's Unique Approval, drug's registered or trademarked name (not the active ingredient), drug form (tablet, solution, powder, etc.), drug name (Active Ingredient), formulation (details of the amount of each active ingredient in the drug), species, indications (what disease, parasite or condition the drug is used to control, treat, or prevent), directions (specifically how, when and where to administer the drug), dose, frequency, duration, further information (further warnings specific to the species such as "Do not administer to lactating cattle."), route name (Route of Administration: Intravenous, Conjunctival, Subcutaneous, Nasogastic, etc.), withdrawal time, milk withdrawal time, and label data source (URL for label information, if found), as well as MRL information such as, ADI (Acceptable Daily Intake)), target tissue, tissue marker residue, milk marker residue, and MRL data source.
