Even if you have other certifications or quality programs, ISIA traceability is important because it provides a specific and rigorous standard for tracking the origin and quality of animal sera throughout the entire supply chain. The ISIA Traceability Certification Program offers an extra layer of assurance to researchers and end-users that the serum product is reliable and meets high ethical and quality standards, especially when working with sensitive research applications where the source of the serum is critical.
