OBRR
Blood and blood components used for transfusion, such as red blood cells, plasma, and
platelets. Pharmaceutical products made from blood, such as clotting factors and
immunoglobulins.
Medical devices and tests used to safeguard blood, blood components, and cellular
products from HIV, hepatitis, syphilis, and other infectious agents. Reagents used to type
blood. Machines and related software used to collect blood and blood components.
OVRR
Vaccines used for the prevention of infectious diseases, such as mumps, measles, chicken
pox, diphtheria, tetanus, influenza, hepatitis, smallpox, and anthrax. Vaccines under
development to treat HIV, and to treat or prevent non-infectious conditions, including various
cancers.
Patch tests used to diagnose the causes of contact dermatitis. Extracts used to diagnose and
treat rhinitis ("hay fever"), allergic sinusitis and conjunctivitis, and bee stings.
OCTGT
Human tissues for transplantation, such as skin, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
Cellular products, such as human stem cells and pancreatic islets. Tissue and cellular
products have the potential to treat cancer, Parkinson's disease, hemophilia, anemia,
diabetes, and other serious conditions.
Gene therapy products that replace a person's faulty or missing genetic material. Gene
therapy research could lead to new treatments for cancer cystic fibrosis, heart disease,
hemophilia, diabetes, and infectious diseases such as AIDS.
Xenotransplantation products use live animal cells, tissues, or organs to treat human
diseases such as liver failure and diabetes, where human materials are not always available.
