Summary
The Malacca fatwa states that using flowing blood in any food or drink is forbidden by consensus. The use of blood plasma in food and beverage products is also forbidden. The reasons given are that no complete transformation (istihalah tannahi) takes place, its use does not reach a state of urgent need or necessity, and halal protein alternatives are still available.
