Description
Summary:Cells, tissues and organs banks are specialised facilities in hospitals or medical institutions performing processing, preservation, banking and distribution activities of human morphological components. The authorisation criterias of such facilities are established according to the legislation regarding the human cells, tissues and organs transplantation (the law no. 48/2008 of the Romanian Parliament). Those „cells and tissues banks” are obliged to respect the instructions reguardind the donation, testing, processing, storage, distribution, encoding and trasability of the tissues and cells of human origin, used for therapeutical purposes, as well as the notification of the severe accidents and side effects during the transplantation process. The prelevation, embeding, labeling and transportation of human cells and tissues are performed according to the technical specifications in order to minimise the risk of biological contamination and only after obtaining the informed consent of the living donor and strictely respecting the legal aspects on the decesed donor.
