Medical research has shown that your baby's umbilical cord blood is a very useful source of stem cells. Collection of blood from the umbilical cord at birth is a safe and easy procedure that offers parents a once in a lifetime opportunity to collect and store these unique cells. At Cells for Life we are able to isolate and concentrate these stem cells and store them for you. This technology provides an immediate supply of stem cells should your baby or a family member require a stem cell transplant. Cells for Life is one of only a few AABB-accredited storage facilities in Canada (read more about AABB accreditation).
