Collection, Processing and Storage of Cord Lining Stem Cells
A safe, quick, and painless collection
Step 1
After your baby’s cord blood has been collected, your obstetrician or midwife will clamp and cut a segment of the umbilical cord lining. This cord lining will be stored in a sterile container provided in your Umbilical Cord Lining Collection Kit.
Step 3
The umbilical cord lining collected is then sent to Cordlife's laboratory for processing and cryopreservation. Prior to umbilical cord processing, the identity of the umbilical cord lining collected is verified by our laboratory technologist to ensure that the unit belongs to the right client. All subsequent steps are performed in a biohazard safety cabinet to further eliminate the risk of contamination.
Step 3
Next, the umbilical cord lining is further processed, cleaned with wash buffer solution and segmented into small pieces.
Step 4
The sterilized tissue sections are then transferred into multiple cryovials added with cryoprotectant solution to safeguard the viability of the stem cells in the cord lining sections during cryopreservation.
Step 5
Once the cryoprotectant solution has been added, the cord lining sections are frozen gradually in the controlled-rate freezer to preserve the viability of the stem cells.
Step 6
After the controlled-rate freezing process, the cryovials are transferred into a MVE vapour-phase liquid nitrogen storage system for long term cryopreservation at -190°C.
The Most Trustworthy Among O&G Specialists
Cordlife has been voted* as the most trustworthy cord blood bank by the private O&G specialists in Hong Kong. As the number 1 choice of these specialist doctors, you can have the confidence in choosing us as your preferred cord blood bank in Hong Kong.
*In an independent study conducted in 2010 by one of Asia's largest market research companies, ACORN.
Cordlife uses MVE Anti-contamination Vapour-phase Liquid Nitrogen Storage System for long-term stem cell cryopreservation.
Vapour-phase storage is preferred over liquid-phase storage as it eliminates the chance of cross contamination between cord blood units as compared with those stored in liquid nitrogen.
The MVE anti-contamination Vapour-phase Liquid Nitrogen Storage System operates perfectly, even without electrical supply, and is 100% reliable and fail-safe with no chance of robotic malfunction. Unlike other storage systems, our tanks have never been recalled by the U.S. FDA or the manufacturer.
Over 99% of private cord blood banks also use vapour-phase freezers.
