CBR is one of the largest and most successful cord blood banks in the United States. To date, they have stored cord blood for well over a quarter million families, and have more successful transplants recorded than competing facilities.
In addition to a solid track record and history, CBR claims to save as much as 2x the volume of cord blood cells for its clients through proprietary collection technologies. (Blood volume is a known factor in determining success rates for transplants.)
Cord Blood Registry also offers umbilical cord tissue storage in addition to blood banking. Rich in a different type of stem cell (mesenchymal stem cells), a 4 to 8 inch segment of the umbilical cord is collected and stored. The two services can be combined.
