Powerful Stem Cells with Lifesaving Potential
Your baby’s umbilical cord contains newborn stem cells with powerful healing potential. Secure the future health of your baby by choosing to preserve them.
What are Newborn Stem Cells?
Newborn stem cells are among the most potent and versatile cells in the human body. Sourced directly after birth, these cells have unique properties that allow them to transform and regenerate, offering both current and potential therapeutic applications.
Types of Newborn Stem Cells
Your baby’s umbilical cord contains two types of newborn stem cells, each with their own unique attributes and healing potential.
Cord Blood Stem Cells
The blood leftover in a baby's umbilical cord contains hematopoietic stem cells, which are powerful stem cells that are responsible for creating blood and immune cells in our bodies.
Hematopoietic stem cells are currently used to treat 80+ diseases, including blood disorders and certain types of cancer.
Cord Tissue Stem Cells
Cord tissue from the actual umbilical cord is a rich source of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These cells have the potential to generate a variety of different cells, including bone, cartilage, fat, and muscle cells.
Mesenchymal stem cells are currently being studied as a treatment option for conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, heart disease, Parkinson's disease, and more.

Cord Blood Stem Cells
That means these early cells have the extraordinary ability to create and replenish many types of cells within the body. Newborn stem cells are easy and painless to collect, and can be harnessed to treat diseases later in life.

Cord tissue contains mesenchymal stem cells and cord blood contains hematopoietic stem cells. Both types of stem cells have a wide range of therapeutic potential.
It’s a Perfect Match!
Your child’s own stem cells are a perfect match to your child. Once stored, they are available for the lifetime of your child and can be used at any time later in life.
Because family members are genetically similar, your child’s stem cells may be a match to other family members. This means these lifesaving cells can also potentially be used by other close family members such as siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles.
