Frequently Asked Questions

  • How are stem cells stored?
  • Stem cells are extracted from blood, stored in a bag and frozen at a temperature of -196 degrees Celsius. 5 small bags are used for HLA typing testing. Stem cells can be used immediately after thawing.
  • Which diseases can stem cells be used to treat?
  • Stem cells are used to regenerate the bone marrow of patients with immune system diseases and blood disorders such as anemia, leukemia, and autoimmune diseases. They are most commonly used in the treatment of children, but are also used after chemotherapy in adults. Stem cells can also be used in regenerative medicine because cord blood stem cells can regenerate and repair damaged tissues. Research has led to therapies for autism, brain injuries, cerebral palsy, and type 1 diabetes.
  • Does the delivery method affect stem cell collection?
  • No. A doctor or midwife can collect cord blood during natural childbirth or cesarean section.
  • Who can use stem cells?
  • Cord blood stem cells are most likely to match the child from whom the blood was collected, and there is a 50% chance that they will also match the child's siblings. If the child has an inherited blood disorder, then their stem cells cannot be used for treatment, as the genes for the inherited disease are also present in their stem cells. In such cases, the stem cells of a sibling or donor are used.
  • Where are stem cells stored?
  • The stem cells are stored in Switzerland within a stem cell bank in Canton.
  • Does the stem cell collection process hurt?
  • Collecting stem cells is a painless process for both the newborn and the mother. It's a non-invasive procedure in which the doctor simply collects a drop of blood from the umbilical cord into a sterile bag.
