Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3002.90Higher: 10% vs Free

If dialyzed and supplemented with specific immunological proteins

Dialyzed serum with added biotech modifications shifts to other modified blood fractions.

3502.90.00.00Higher: 35% vs Free

If sold as bulk purified albumin without therapeutic intent

Purified blood albumin not for medical use falls under albumin preparations, excluding Chapter 30 therapeutics.

3822Higher: 10% vs Free

If for diagnostic reagents in kit form rather than bulk serum

If put up as measured doses for diagnostics, it may classify under diagnostic reagents outside Chapter 30 blood fractions.
