Collection and storage of cord blood, storage of the umbilical cord
How it works
Stem cells are the precursors of all cells in the body. In the event of illness, they can replace any damaged cell and become a blood cell, organ, or tissue.
Hematopoietic stem cells are distinguished, which participate in the blood formation system and form the immune system, as well as mesenchymal stem cells, which differentiate into cells of bone, connective tissue, blood vessels, and smooth muscles.

Umbilical Cord Blood
and Umbilical Cord
Umbilical cord blood remains after the cord is cut and is an ideal source of hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment of blood and immune system diseases in humans, as well as other previously incurable conditions (such as leukemia and other types of cancer).
The umbilical cord is a rich source of mesenchymal stem cells, which are already being used in the treatment of heart diseases, for growing new blood vessels, skin, and for the regeneration of the liver and brain.

Collection of Umbilical Cord Blood
and Umbilical Cord
Notification by a representative of Safe Placenta BioBank to the obstetrician-gynecologist about the collection of biological material (umbilical cord blood, umbilical cord).
Conclusion of the Contract
The collection of umbilical cord blood and the umbilical cord is performed by an obstetrician-gynecologist who delivers the baby. This can occur during both natural childbirth and cesarean section.
The procedure is completely safe for both the mother and the baby and is carried out without physical contact with the newborn.

Processing of Umbilical Cord
Cryopreservation and Long-Term Storage of Umbilical Cord Blood
and Umbilical Cord
Using a programmable freezer, umbilical cord blood and/or umbilical cord tissue are cryopreserved.
The frozen biological material (stem cells from umbilical cord blood and other biological materials) is stored in Dewar vessels in liquid nitrogen at a temperature of -196 °C. A sample of umbilical cord blood and/or umbilical cord can be obtained upon first request.
If necessary, Safe Placenta BioBank for cell therapy can arrange safe delivery of the sample to any medical institution in Texas. Transportation of frozen biological material must be carried out in a Dewar vessel in liquid nitrogen.

70% of parents who preserve umbilical cord blood also preserve stem cells from the cord. It is in this tissue that nature has provided unique mesenchymal stem cells, which are already being used in the treatment of heart diseases, for growing new blood vessels, skin, and for the regeneration of the liver and brain.
Activity: Contains young and more active cells with a higher ability to divide and differentiate.
Purity: There is no risk of infection transmission, which can occur even with the most thorough screening of donor bone marrow.
Compatibility: A lower risk of developing graft-versus-host disease and other immunological complications that often arise with the transplantation of donor "adult" stem cells.
Presence of both hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells: This expands the possibilities for using umbilical cord blood.
Endothelial progenitor cells: Their high content can aid in the repair of blood vessels and the heart.

Each of us is unique: fingerprints, ear shape, scent. But this uniqueness is not only external; our cells are also one-of-a-kind.
