    CBR has saved cord blood stem cells for more than 325,000 newborns and has helped many families use their stem cells for lifesaving transplants and other therapies. You can rely on our experience and expertise for your family.

  2. CBR saves more cord blood stem cells for families.
    CBR is dedicated to collecting the highest volume of cord blood for families because having more stem cells for treatment can improve medical outcomes if the cells are ever needed for transplant. The combination of CBR's new collection bag, proprietary dry heparin anticoagulant (which helps preserve the cord blood during transport to the lab), and superior processing technology, improves our ability to save every stem cell possible.
  3. Only CBR offers two ways to save stem cells.
    CBR is the only bank in the U.S. to provide storage for stem cells contained in both cord blood and cord tissue. The stem cells in cord tissue are different from those found in cord blood and may help repair the body in different ways. Saving both types of stem cells can give you even more peace of mind for your family's future.
  4. Our long-term stability is well established.
    CBR's laboratory is located in Tucson, Arizona, one of the safest cities in the nation in terms of risk from hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, winter storms, and tornados.1 Additionally, our track record of long-term stability and financial strength demonstrates our commitment that we will be here for you in the future.
  5. CBR is the leader in clinical research.
    CBR is a leader in advancing clinical research with newborn stem cells and has partnered with some of the most prestigious medical institutions including, Duke University, University of Florida, and the Medical College of Georgia to further research on the use of cord blood in regenerative medicine.

Banking cord blood does not guarantee that the cells will provide a cure or be applicable for every situation. For inherited genetic conditions, the child will not be able to use his or her own stem cells. A matched sibling's stem cells would be the first choice. Ultimate use will be determined by the treating physician. Treatment for brain injury and juvenile diabetes is experimental and currently requires the use of your own cord blood. Medical treatments using family banked cord tissue are in early research and are not available today; there is no guarantee that therapies will be developed in the future.
