About Us
At Animal Blood Resources International (ABRI), our mission is to save animals through transfusion medicine. Founded in 1988, we are the first commercial blood bank for domestic animals in the United States. For over 30 years, we have been committed to providing the highest quality, safest, and most reliable blood products and components to veterinarians and researchers worldwide.
Our journey began with the vision of our founder, Stan Carlin, DVM, who developed the very first blood bank for animals. Since then, we have grown to become the largest veterinary transfusion supplier globally. Our dedication to product development, quality control, and establishing strong relationships within the animal health network has earned us the distinction of being the leading provider in our field.
We offer a comprehensive range of blood products, including packed red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, lyophilized cryoprecipitate, and albumin. Our HemaGold line of leuko-reduced, lyophilized, and cryo-preserved blood products sets a new standard in transfusion medicine. We also provide 24/7 technical support to veterinarians and their clinics, ensuring that they have the resources they need to save the lives of pets.
In addition to our core services, we are deeply committed to supporting the rescue and shelter communities. Our adoption program provides healthy animals a second chance at adoption by offering them a safe haven while they receive lifesaving blood transfusions. This program not only helps animals in need but also promotes the adoption of healthy pets into loving homes.
At ABRI, we pride ourselves on our commitment to quality and safety. We are the only animal blood bank that is both USDA and CDFA certified, ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of quality and safety. Our goal is simple: to provide the best possible blood products and services to veterinarians and their patients, thereby saving countless animal lives.
We are proud of the life-saving contributions we make every day. With a legacy of over three decades, we continue to lead the veterinary transfusion supply field with unmatched dedication and expertise. Whether you are a veterinarian seeking reliable blood products or an animal lover supporting our adoption program, we invite you to join us in our mission to save animals through transfusion medicine.
