ISBT 128 Concatenation

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 barcodes on a blood product
label. Use the barcodes below to turn concatenation on or off. Default =Off.
