OVERVIEW

The Standards Committee is the panel that reviews and determines ICCBBA technical policies. The group also reviews all documents prior to publication. The Standards Committee comprises the chairs of select ICCBBA Technical Advisory Groups, others selected for their knowledge of the practical application of ISBT 128, and ICCBBA staff. This committee determines which Technical Advisory Group will address specific technical questions and provides guidance to ICCBBA on technical issues.

The Standards Committee was established in 2011 from the previous ICCBBA Editorial Board. The group holds frequent asynchrounous discussions to review any proposed changes to the structure of the ISBT 128 Standard as well as new class and attribute groups within the standardized terminology. Occasional virtual and in-person meetings are also held.

The Standards Committee recently reviewed and amended proposed terminology changes for fecal mircobiota and tissue.
