What are stem cells?

Stem cells are the body’s master cells, capable of developing into more than 200 different types of cells. They are responsible for the growth and repair of our tissues and organs. Preserving them at the time of birth is to safeguard a unique source of life, with immense potential for the medicine of the future.

Umbilical cord stem cells are the youngest and most vital cells a person will ever have. By storing them at low temperatures, their potential remains intact for years. Storing them is an investment in health, a biological insurance that will allow your child to access them immediately if they ever need them for the treatment of possible diseases.

Maximum viability in less than 24 hours

We guarantee cryopreservation in less than 24 hours, a key factor that increases the performance and vitality of stem cells, ensuring the highest quality of the sample.

Extraction kit with the latest technology

We use an advanced kit with a triple safety lock and a chip that records the temperature at all times, ensuring that the cells are kept in ideal conditions from extraction until their arrival at the laboratory.

3. We preserve whole blood

We process cord blood without separating its components to ensure the highest number of usable cells. In addition, we perform a viability test and the necessary genetic analyses for its potential future use.

4. We offer advice whenever you need it

Should you need to use the cells, our advisory team will accompany you throughout the process, putting you in touch with the best specialists and preparing the blood unit for transplantation.

5. Certified quality and international experience

We have GMP quality certification and are registered with the FDA. We are part of the VITA34 network, the largest private stem cell bank in Germany, offering the highest guarantee and experience.
