Safe Collection Process
The baby maybe born vaginally or via an emergency
C section, once the baby and the placenta is
delivered, the cord is disinfected and the vein
is punctured to clamp and cut it a few inches
apart. Then the caregiver inserts a sterile
needle and collects the blood left behind in the
umbilical cord and the placenta in a sterile
collection bag. This bag, in fact, is kept is
safe condition inside an x-ray free certified
collection kit box, which again filled with
anti-coagulant, thus preventing the blood from
clotting, before it reaches the laboratory.

y, the collection kit box is coated with hard
plastic, and has vacuum insulation in it. It is
designed in this way, so that temperature is
properly maintained and that the temperature is
absolutely under control, when the sample cord
blood unit is getting transported to the lab or
the transplant center, even during harsh weather
conditions.  Biologically Safe Processing

Safe and Advanced Storage Methods For future
testing, the cord blood is stored in a 25ml multi
compartment cryobag with integral segments. In
fact, some private cord blood banks keep the
babys stem cells in frozen state (-190 Degrees),
so that, the stem cells can be preserved anywhere
between 21 to 75 years of a babys life.  To
Conclude As compared to the other cord blood
banks, who give no assurance on the maintenance
or who give no surety of safety or timely
transportation of the sample unit to the
transplantation center, Cordlife India, the
largest network of private cord blood bank in
Asia, is safe. All that the clients need to do
is pay a nominal price to keep their babys cord
