Why Cord Blood Registry?

Cord Blood Registry is the world leader in cord blood stem cell banking. See why Ob/Gyns collect more cord blood for CBR than any other family cord blood bank:

  1. CBR is the largest and most experienced cord blood bank, which gives you an extra measure of security. As the bank with the most transplant experience, CBR has successfully processed and stored stem cells for more than 325,000 newborns and provided more cord blood samples for use in medical therapies than any other family cord blood bank.
  2. CBR has published the highest cell recovery rate in the industry: 99%. Other common processing methods have been shown to recover only 81% of cells from cord blood. So with CBR, you have more cells if you need them.
  3. Our financial and long-term stability means you can rest assured that we will be here for you in the future. CBR's laboratory has been processing and storing cord blood since 1992.
  4. Even our location is secure. CBR's laboratory is located in Tucson, Arizona, one of the safest places for long-term storage because it's historically free from airport delays and natural disasters that could affect the safety or accessibility of your patient’s sample.
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.
