Iccbba

ICCBBA is the nonprofit international standards organization responsible for the development and management of the ISBT 128 Standard. ICCBBA operates globally to support healthcare systems, regulators, and industry partners in enhancing traceability, harmonization, and patient safety for medical products of human origin (MPHO) or other therapeutic biological products. The acronym ISBT was originally derived from the important role played by the International Society of Blood Transfusion in the development of the Standard. Today, it expands as the Information Standard for Blood and Transplantation. The number 128 reflects the 128 characters of the ISO/IEC 646 7-bit character set. ICCBBA is used solely as the organization’s name and no longer functions as an acronym.
