What is Cord Blood Banking?

There are a number of sources from where stem cells can be banked, with the most popular amongst them being the umbilical cord. Cord blood banking is the extraction of stem cells from the umbilical cord. This is done during childbirth and is a quick, hassle free and painless procedure!

While, the umbilical cord and cord blood are the most popular sources of stem cells - the Placenta, Amniotic Sac and Amniotic Fluid are by far the richest sources, in terms of both - quantity and quality.

Why don't other banks store cells extracted from Placenta, Amniotic Sac and Amniotic Fluid?

Most banks lack the technological knowhow required to process them. As a result, most parents are left uninformed, which often results in these valuable sources of stem cells being disposed of as 'biological waste'. In fact, ReeLabs is India's first and only company to have the capabilities to bank stem cells from the Amniotic Sac, Amniotic Fluid and Placenta.
