\n\n Central laboratory: processing & cryopreservation\n\n <\/h2>\n\n \n
\n

In our laboratories, we are engaged in processing cord blood, cord tissue, placental tissue and amniotic membrane for stem cell extraction, quality control and sample storage. Our bio-bank has the capacity to cryopreserve a wide range of biological materials:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Umbilical cord blood stem cells<\/li>\n
  • Umbilical cord tissue stem cells<\/li>\n
  • Placental tissue stem cells<\/li>\n
  • Amniotic membrane<\/li>\n
  • Peripheral blood<\/li>\n
  • Plasma and serum<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Cryopreservation of cells is carried out in nitrogen vapor as a\u00a0guarantee of their quality and maximum safety.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\t

    In our R&D department we work:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Develop protocols for the derivation of stem cells from various sources<\/li>\n
    • Develop protocols for long-term storage of stem cells<\/li>\n
    • Implement the R&D protocols in the GMP laboratory<\/li>\n
    • Work with the rest of the FamiCord group on internationally recognized\u00a0clinical trials<\/strong>\u00a0and develop production and preparation of cells for transplantation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Thanks to our experience, we have provided consultations for enrollment in international clinical trials. Our scientific director has helped enroll more than 60 children with cerebral palsy in the internationally recognized protocols.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
