How Does the Cord Blood Banking Process Work?
You may have heard of the option of cord blood banking, a breakthrough in stem cell research and a simple process that may eventually save your own child’s life. Cord blood banking involves a process of collecting and storing stem cells from two primary sources: the placenta and the umbilical cord. This is an advanced method of collection, as traditional cord blood banking only saves stem cells from the blood drained from the umbilical cord. LifebankUSA has obtained a patented process of stem cell collection from the placenta, which allows families to store significantly more stem cells for future use than cord blood banking alone. The cells are processed in a laboratory and then cryogenically stored for family use only.
