The ISIA Mission Statement states in part that:
Our primary focus will be on safety and safe use of serum and blood derived products through proper origin traceability and truth in labeling, and appropriate standardization and oversight.
Standardization of terminology, documentation and manufacturing procedures has been a major focus of ISIA efforts since the beginning. We continue to work with government agencies to promote standardiization of animal by-products regulations, their interpretation and enforcement.
We have achieved considerable success with both standardization and harmonization, but governments of all nations continually legislate, regulate, and derogate, thus complicating our task. Change is constant!
