(NASDAQ: CBPO, “China Biologic” or the “Company”), a leading fully integrated plasma-based biopharmaceutical company in China, today announced that the Company has received approval from the China Food and Drug Administration (the “CFDA”) for commercial manufacturing of human prothrombin complex concentrate (“PCC”) at its Shandong Taibang facility.
