LEADING CORD BLOOD PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY
Our proprietary cord blood processing results in higher quality and quantity of stem cells to help those who may need a stem cell transplant. Our technology is available for license to clients as part of our full-service cord blood banking capabilities.
PREMIERMAX®
PREMIERMAX® uses a powerful proprietary method for stem cell recovery, cryo-preservation, and QC sampling.
- Our process removes 98.5% of red blood cells, enabling a lower dose of free hemoglobin to recipients. Independent scientific testing proves that our process offers optimum stem cell recovery after thawing.
- Our recovery reagent is mixed with the cord blood to allow the stem cells to be separated easier, resulting in a higher amount of stem cells.
- Our preservative keeps cells from being damaged. It has less toxicity than other products currently being used by other cord blood banks.
OUR FACILITY
Our facility is utilized as the banking facility used by other cord blood banking brands. Virtual banks allow for national collaboration and flexibility needed for some clients.
We have 7 state of the art cryopreservation storage tanks, which are capable of maintaining 40,000 umbilical cord blood stem cell units. Using liquid nitrogen vapors, these tanks are continuously monitored both manually and electronically to ensure the temperature is maintained at or below -150°C., at all times.
We can process 24 cord blood units along with cord tissue units, simultaneously per shift (3 shifts may be operated per day).
We expanded our lab in 2011 to provide 450 sq. ft. of designated ISO-7 (Class 10,000) laboratory space. In addition, it provides 120 sq. ft. ISO-6 (Class 1,000) research space allowing expansion of our alternative stem cell source process development programs.
Additionally, our Cord Tissue/BioCeutical division has 500 sq. ft. of lab space being currently renovated and satellite lab space of 120 sq. ft.

So much research is going on with stem cells from cord blood as scientists work to unlock the secrets of stem cells. Much of the research centers on the anti-inflammatory properties of stem cells from umbilical cord blood. Medical research into stem cells is ongoing, offering the potential to treat diseases or injuries that have […]
Stem cells perform three important functions: 1. They renew themselves; 2. Differentiate into other cells; and 3. Renew other cells. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can restore the immune system following chemotherapy or radiation for leukemia, lymphoma, and other life-threatening diseases. Historically, HSCs have only been available from bone marrow and peripheral blood transplants. As cord […]
In addition to potentially life-saving stem cells, your newborn’s umbilical cord blood also contains their DNA. Storing your child’s cord blood ensures that their baseline genetic information will be available if ever needed. What Can Genes Tell Us? The sum total of all the information coded into your child’s individual genes is their genome. Simply […]
