Our Lab Expertise
Fully-owned facility
As the likelihood of using stem cells for therapies increases with age, we’re committed to being there for you and your family for the long haul. That’s why we invested millions of dollars to acquire and custom-design our stem cell processing and cryopreservation facility in Singapore.
Fully automated cord blood processing
We process each cord blood unit individually with Sepax®2, a fully automated system that extracts up to 99.88% of cells from cord blood. The processed cord blood is then placed in Smart-Max™, an automated cryoprotectant infuser, mixer and cooling device that ensures consistent preparation of stem cells for cryopreservation.
Safe & secure facility
Our facility is managed by qualified biotechnologists with extensive experience. Built around the stringent criteria set by AABB and FACT-Netcord, our facility has monitoring systems to ensure optimal temperature control of our liquid nitrogen cryotanks, as well as multiple backup systems to provide continuous power 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
