A: StemCyte’s
cord blood processing protocol, called the StemCyte Stem Cell Optimization
Process, stores plasma-depleted whole blood. Through our processes that include
over 400 laboratory and quality control procedures, we are able to recover more
of the total nucleated cells [1] than any other processing method. Our
public bank has supplied over 700 products using this process and the success
rate/efficacy of our products has been outstanding.
