Best in Class: Collection, Processing, and Storage

More stem cells are important for treatment outcomes.^10,11 That's why the CBR CellAdvantage^® system – from collection to processing to storage – was meticulously designed to retrieve the most cells possible.^1-3

Storage

CBR takes every step to ensure the long-term safety and viability of stem cells, including:

FDA-cleared, seamless storage bags improve bag strength and decrease the risk of breakage that occurs in traditional seamed-plastic storage bags
Prevents cross-contamination by hermetically sealing each sample in overwrap envelopes
CBR's lab is located in Tucson, AZ, one of the safest U.S. cities in terms of risk from natural disasters⁶ that could interrupt consistent long-term storage
Security: 24-hour monitoring of samples every 1.6 seconds; 9,000-gallon standby tank of liquid nitrogen; large-capacity backup generator; and bullet-proof glass

Collection

CBR's active collection device helps collect more cord blood than passive gravity-dependent bags. We do not rely on gravity alone.

ActiveFlo^® chamber enables the removal of blockages in the needle or tubing during collection, resulting in improved blood flow and increased collection volume
Clamp and sterile clearance vent reduces entry points for contaminants helping maintain a sterile collection

Processing

State-of-the-art processing technology called the AutoXpress^® Platform (AXP^®) is FDA-cleared and automated.

AXP is automated to ensure consistent sterility and quality
Exact measurements at every step of the process limits potential human error
Fully electronic documentation and quality controls provide complete and accurate records every time
CBR’s processing system has the highest published rate of cell recovery — 99%.^1-3 That's 20% higher than processes using Sepax^® and Hespan^®

Featured Technology

Dry Heparin

CBR's dry heparin is superior to other anticoagulants for collecting stem cells. Heparin combined with AXP has the ability to recover 20% more cells than common processing methods.^1-3

CBR uses dry heparin because it:
• Allows for visualization of blood flow, reducing risk of ending
collection too soon
• Maintains cell viability during transport to our lab⁷
• Increases cell recovery rates and maximizes cell viability in small
collections^7,8
• Preserves stem cells' ability to migrate better than liquid CPD⁹

ActiveFlo^® Chamber

The ActiveFlo chamber is another CBR innovation that improves the quality and volume of a cord blood collection.

• It removes tissue blockages to increase collection volume
• Using the chamber avoids the need for multiple needle insertions,
which can spread contamination
• Dry heparin within the chamber provides an accurate visual of cord
blood flow and collection volume

Safe Shipping Device

Our collection kit actively transforms into a safe shipping device. The cube is crush-resistant and temperature-protected so you can be assured it will get to the lab safely and processed in most cases under 24 hours.

Fast, One-Step Shipping^SM:
• Private medical courier and next-flight out service
• Real-time tracking with unique security and tracking codes

CordCup^®

Collecting cord tissue and the valuable mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) it contains is simple.

• Each CordCup contains CordPrep^®, a proprietary antibiotic and
  transport medium developed by CBR to protect the tissue during
  shipment
• CBR preserves the cord tissue whole as it may provide more
   treatment options in the future

Our Mission is Advancing the Clinical Applications of Newborn Stem Cells

Cord Blood Registry^® (CBR^®) is the world's largest and most experienced newborn stem cell company. For more than 20 years, we have led the industry in technological innovations, including being the first facility to offer cord tissue storage in the U.S. and only bank to create a collection device designed specifically for cord blood stem cells. We are entrusted by parents with storing newborn stem cells for more than 400,000 children. Currently, five FDA-regulated clinical trials require CBR-processed stem cells.
