Code 128
ISBT 128 Concatenation
In 1994 the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) ratified a standard for communicating
critical blood information in a uniform manner. The use of ISBT formats requires a paid license.
The ISBT 128 Application Specification describes 1) the critical data elements for labeling blood
products, 2) the current recommendation to use Code 128 due to its high degree of security and its
space-efficient design, 3) a variation of Code 128 that supports concatenation of neighboring
symbols, and 4) the standard layout for bar codes on a blood product label. Use the bar codes
below to turn concatenation on or off. Default =Off.
