  • Title: [Quality plan of a bone tissue bank].
    Author: Lemercier V, Vastel L, Courpied JP.
    Journal: Ann Pharm Fr; 2000 Dec; 58(6 Suppl):488-98. PubMed ID: 11148388.
    Abstract:
    In 1994, the French bioethics laws changed the regulations concerning donated human tissues with safety precautions and therapeutic use. The decree of 29(th) December 1998 describes the practical obligations required of bone tissue banks for approval by the French Health Ministry. Before the new regulations, a quality system was implemented at the Cochin hospital bone tissue bank. It integrates quality control for each step of the general process. We describe the quality plan of the Cochin Hospital bone tissue bank and show that the specific quality practices, resources and sequence of activities improve distribution of human bone allografts while maintaining their traceability.
