HCT/P regulations addressing
contamination
► Current
Good Tissue Practices (CGTP)
► 21 CFR 1271.145*
You must recover, process, store, label,
package, and distribute HCT/Ps, and screen and
test cell and tissue donors, in a way that
prevents the introduction, transmission, or
spread of communicable diseases.
*Applies to all HCT/Ps, including “351” products

21 CFR 1271.150 CGTP requirements
(“361” products)
You must follow CGTP requirements to
prevent the introduction, transmission, or
spread of communicable diseases by HCT/Ps
(e.g., by ensuring that the HCT/Ps do not
contain communicable disease agents, that
they are not contaminated, and that they do
not become contaminated during
manufacturing). Communicable diseases
include…those transmitted by bacteria,
fungi, parasites, and TSE agents.

► Sec. 1271.160(c): Facility controls to prevent
contamination
► Sec. 1271.195(a) and (c): Environmental control
and monitoring where conditions could be

Specific CGTP provisions (“361”
products, with exception)

1271.215: Recover in a way that does not
cause contamination
► Sec. 1271.220(a): Process in a way that does not
cause contamination
► Sec. 1271.260(a): Control of storage areas to

► Sec 1271.265(c)(2)*: You must not make available
for distribution an HCT/P that is… contaminated…
or that otherwise does not meet release criteria
designed to prevent communicable disease
transmission
*Applies to all HCT/Ps, including “351” products
