Why should you think about storing umbilical cord blood stem cells? Did you know that over 30% of all patients who require potentially lifesaving stem cell transplants are unable to find a suitable match? This startling fact illustrates the importance of finding new sources for stem cells, which have self-replenishing and transforming abilities and […]

Cord Blood , also known as umbilical cord blood, is the blood that has been derived from a newborn baby’s umbilical cord . The blood is collected from the umbilical cord after the cord has been clamped. A patented process by LifebankUSA also extracts blood from the placenta, which provides more stem cells, […]

Cord blood storage is a breakthrough in stem cell research and treatment. This involves a process of collection and storage of an infant’s stem cells at birth. Stem cells are collected from the umbilical cord as well as the placenta, immediately after birth through LifebankUSA’s patented process. The cells are cryogenically stored […]

Cord blood storage is becoming a very reliable option in patient care, as stem cells derived from the umbilical cord and placenta at birth have been shown to carry distinct advantages over using other stem cell sources. Stem cells derived from a family’s cord blood storage bank are far more likely to match the […]

There has been much study done on stem cell research as well as cord blood research. It is a fact that stem cells, which are the building blocks of human tissue, blood and the immune system, have the ability to self-renew and can form many special types of cells such as red blood cells […]
