The idea of establishing a human tissue bank in Bangladesh was started in 1985. However, in 2003, with the active cooperation of international atomic energy agency (IAEA) and Bangladesh Atomic Energy Commission, a tissue bank laboratory was upgraded as a unit for tissue banking and research. Due to increasing demand of allograft, this unit was transformed as an independent institute “Institute of Tissue Banking and Biomaterial Research (ITBBR)” in 2016. This is the only human tissue bank in Bangladesh, which processes human bone and amniotic membrane to provide safe and cost-effective allografts for transplantation. Importantly, banking of human cranial bone as autograft has also started at ITBBR. These processed grafts are sterilized using gamma radiation according to the IAEA Code of Practice for the radiation sterilization of tissues allografts. The amount of grafts produced by the ITBBR from 2007 to 2018 were 120,800 cc of bone chips, 45,420 cm² of amniotic membranes, 277 vials of de-mineralized bone granules (DMB), 95 pieces of massive bones, and 134 pieces of cranial bones. Overall, 112,748 cc of bone chips, 40,339 cm² of amniotic membranes, 174 vials of DMB, 44 pieces of massive bones, and 64 pieces of cranial bones were transplanted successfully. Nevertheless, to cope up with the modern advanced concepts of cell and tissue banking for therapeutic purpose, ITBBR is working to set up facilities for skin banking, stem cells banking including amniotic and cord blood derived stem cells and scaffold designing. To ensure the quality, safety, ethical and regulatory issues are sustainable in cell and tissue banking practices, ITBBR always works with the Government of Bangladesh for enhancing the national tissue transplantation programme within the contemporary facilities.

孟加拉国的人骨和羊膜移植库：国际原子能机构（IAEA）计划的影响。

在孟加拉国建立人体组织库的想法始于1985年。但是，在2003年，在国际原子能机构（IAEA）和孟加拉国原子能委员会的积极合作下，组织库实验室升级为组织库的一个部门和研究。由于同种异体移植的需求不断增长，该部门于2016年转变为独立的“组织银行和生物材料研究所（ITBBR）”。这是孟加拉国唯一的人类组织银行，其处理人骨和羊膜以提供安全和具有成本效益的同种异体移植。重要的是，ITBBR也已开始将人类颅骨作为自体移植物。这些处理过的移植物根据国际原子能机构（IAEA）工作守则对组织同种异体移植物进行辐射灭菌，使用了伽玛射线进行了灭菌。²个羊膜，277瓶去矿质骨颗粒（DMB），95块块状骨头和134块颅骨。总体而言，骨屑112,748 cc，40,339 cm ²成功移植了羊膜，174瓶DMB，44块大块骨头和64块颅骨。然而，为了适应用于治疗目的的细胞和组织库的现代先进概念，ITBBR正在努力建立皮肤库，干细胞库（包括羊水和脐带血干细胞）以及支架设计的设施。为了确保在细胞和组织储存实践中可持续的质量，安全，道德和法规问题，ITBBR始终与孟加拉国政府合作，以加强现代设施内的国家组织移植计划。
