Client Testimonials
“I looked at all the cord blood bank websites searching for the best bank and price. Then I found AlphaCord and discovered you already did the research on the best banks for the best prices.
This is our first baby and making all the right choices is overwhelming and exhausting. We can't thank you enough for making our choice to bank our baby's cord blood as easy as possible”
Bill G, Los Gatos, CA
What Is Cord Blood
Cord blood is the stem cell rich blood that remains in the umbilical cord and placenta immediately after the cord is cut and the baby is born. Stems cells founc in cord blood are the building blocks of our blood and the foundation of our immune system. Although routinely discarded, cord blood provides millions the life-saving stem cells that can only be saved at birth.
Cord Blood vs. Bone Marrow
Stem cells from cord blood are a perfect match for your child. But because these stem cells are less mature than bone marrow stem cells, there is less need for a perfect match for siblings and other relatives. In fact, according to recent studies, using cord blood as an alternative to bone marrow lowers the risk of graft versus host disease, or transplant rejection. Cord blood is also easier to collect than bone marrow and, when privately banked, is immediately accessible by your family, an important consideration when time is of the essence.
