The Uniform Anatomical Gift Act regulates the donation of dead bodies or parts of bodies for transplantation, education and research. There are three types of anatomical gifts: tissue donation including blood, organ donation and whole body donation. The Nebraska State Anatomical Board, located at UNMC, is responsible for the Body Donation Program for the State of Nebraska. UNMC shall follow guidelines set by the Nebraska State Anatomical Board for the use of human anatomical material. | The Uniform Anatomical Gift Act regulates the donation of dead bodies or parts of bodies for transplantation, education and research.

4. '''1.''' Human | 4. '''1.''' Human anatomical material obtained from a UNMC Nebraska State Anatomical Board representative: Requests for human anatomical material will be made to the Nebraska State Anatomical Board. If a requested human anatomical material or human body segment cannot be supplied by the Nebraska Anatomical Board, a UNMC Nebraska State Anatomical Board Representative shall assist in obtaining anatomical material from a source unanimously approved by the Human Anatomical Tissue Review Committee. A copy of an approved request signed by a UNMC Nebraska State Anatomical Board Representative must accompany any requested human anatomical material. All requests for sessions at the Davis Global Center including University students will be made directly to the Nebraska State Anatomical Board by faculty lead. If human anatomical materials are to be used in the Davis Global Center, transportation to and from the Center shall be arranged by a Nebraska State Anatomical Board member. | ||

::'''ii.''' Anatomical material shall be placed in a primary container with a leak-proof seal that prevents leakage during collection, handling, processing, storage, transport or shipping. The primary container shall then be placed in a secondary leak resistant container that prevents leakage (i.e., a properly sealed zippable plastic bag (like ZIPLOC®, a properly sealed body bag with a minimum 6 mil. thickness or a properly sealed plastic bucket with a screw-on lid, locking lid or a leak-proof lid, disaster bag). The secondary container shall contain absorbent material (i.e., cellulose packing, thick paper towel or cotton wool) which shall be placed around the top, bottom, and sides of the primary container. The secondary container shall have a biohazard label affixed to the container. Frozen specimens, once placed in their secondary container, shall be placed in a cooler with a latchable lid and transported immediately. However, if the specimen is transported on dry ice, a Styrofoam cooler with the lid securely strapped or taped in place, or other container approved by Environmental Health and Safety, shall be used. The outside of the cooler shall be labeled "For Specimens Only" and shall have the biohazard symbol displayed in a prominent place on the container.<br /> | ::'''ii.'''
