Recently, India\u2019s Ministry of Fisheries Animal Husbandry &amp; Dairying Government released its draft &#8220;Guidelines\/SOP for Blood Transfusion and Blood Bank for Animals in India,&#8221; citing CDFA\u2019s guidance in its references. This recognition underscores the influence of the agency\u2019s&nbsp;work through the California Animal Blood Banks program (CABB).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The guidance provides clear information on best practices and the requirements for starting and operating an animal blood bank. Its development, mandated by California statute, involved collaboration with the California Veterinary Medical Board, technical experts, and other stakeholders. The resource is regularly updated to reflect evolving industry standards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CABB team works to forge new ground, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdfa.ca.gov\/AHFSS\/CABB\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">developing comprehensive guidelines that not only ensure safety and efficacy<\/a> but also prioritize the welfare of donor animals. To see this work serve as a model for a nation as large as India \u2013 with its vast and diverse animal populations \u2013 is a testament to the quality and foresight of our program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there has been no formal collaboration with India\u2019s government, we are proud that the guidance and standards we&#8217;ve helped pioneer are a source of inspiration, helping to establish safe, ethical, and effective standards for animal healthcare on a global scale. This is a clear indicator that our efforts are aligning with international best practices and contributing to a more structured approach to veterinary medicine worldwide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We look forward to seeing how these new guidelines are adopted and implemented in India and are thrilled to know that CDFA is playing a part in this important global step forward.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on the CDFA Animal Blood Banking Program, please visit our website at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdfa.ca.gov\/ahfss\/cabb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.cdfa.ca.gov\/ahfss\/cabb<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At CDFA we take great pride when we discover practices and standards utilized here in California are sources of inspiration beyond our borders.
