Import Tips
• Maintain 2-8°C cold chain documentation throughout import to preserve bioactivity and prevent denaturation
• Provide FDA biologics license application (BLA) details and pathogen reduction validation for plasma-derived products
• Declare exact fibrinogen/thrombin concentrations to avoid confusion with simple glues under chemical headings
