										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Buyt Desk </strong></p>
<p dir="ltr">Cord blood stem cell banking was an alien concept to most Indian populations until a decade ago. <a href="https://www.thebuyt.com/stem-cell-banking-can-save-your-childs-life-in-future/">Stem cell banking allows today’s</a> parents to preserve their child&#8217;s stem cells found in the umbilical cord blood. The child’s stem cells are their perfect biological match and with zero risk of rejection which is possible with transplants from donors. Storing your baby’s umbilical cord blood stem cells could someday save their life.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">Uses of preserved stem cells</h4>
<p dir="ltr">The use of stem cells for preventing or treating a disease or condition is known as Stem-cell therapy. As stem cells have the capacity to develop into different cell types, researchers are experimenting to explore the opportunities of using cord blood stem cells to treat very common life-threatening diseases such as diabetes, stroke, and heart diseases. There is excessive use of stem cells in regenerative treatments and thus many parents are choosing to bank their baby’s stem cells. The list of diseases treatable using stem cells keeps growing at a fast pace. Banking your baby’s stem cells can guarantee your access to your child’s own stem cells for such cellular therapy in the future. This offers parents great biological insurance to protect their child who could be diagnosed with any disease or condition which can be treated with stem cell therapy.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">Stem Cell Banks</h4>
<p dir="ltr">In India, the cord blood stem cell banking facilities are largely provided by:</p>
<ul>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">Privately-held banks</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">Government-owned (public) banks</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">Community stem cell bank</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h4 dir="ltr">Private Stem Cell Bank</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Private stem cell bank is commonly known as a &#8216;family bank’. Here, parents preserve their baby&#8217;s cord blood to ensure its availability only to them for any future use. As the preserved stem cells are used only either by the child or a family member such as a sibling, this way of banking is considered a form of &#8220;biological insurance&#8221;. The Indian Academy of Pediatrics, as part of the consensus statement (2018) on Umbilical Cord Blood Banking, do not encourage the parents to store their umbilical cord stem cells with private banks, unless a family member or a baby is having a genetic condition which is treatable only by autologous or family stem cells.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">Government-Owned (Public) Stem Cell Bank</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Public cord blood banks work on the idea of donation, wherein the parents donate their child&#8217;s cord blood to the public use and may not be available for the child in future. Anyone in need of the stem cell samples stored in these banks can have access to it. Also the samples in public banks are donated for stem cell research. Any parent can donate their baby’s cord blood to a public bank if they meet the required eligibility criteria specified by the public banks. The database of available samples in public banks is made available to doctors so that they can use it to treat the needy patients. Today, only a limited number of stem cell units (that are ready to use) are available at the public stem cell banks in India. In Indian public banks, the treatment demands are much higher than the available stem cell units for transplant. Jeevan (also known as BeTheCure.in) was the first public bank in India. However due to funding issues, they had to shut down in 2017.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">Community Stem Cell Bank</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Community Stem Cell Banking is a model where umbilical cord stem cells are added to a community pool. In case of a medical need for a stem cell, all members of the community bank have access to all the units stored in the community pool. This form of banking is the best of both the worlds, the public as well as private banking. It is considered the best model as it allows one to share preserved stem cells solely amongst its community members to find matching donor stem cells. Major of the cord blood stem cell banks in India are community stem cell banks.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">List of best Stem Cell Banks in India</h4>
<ul>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">LifeCell International Pvt Ltd</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">CordLife</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">CryoViva Biotech Pvt Ltd</p>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<p dir="ltr">Reliance Life Sciences</p>

<p dir="ltr">Stem cell banking is the opportunity provided at childbirth to have your precious cells cryogenically frozen for years. The current study says 1 in 3 people benefit from stem cell therapies.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">What is Cord blood?</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Cord blood is the blood that is found in the umbilical cord and placenta post-childbirth. During the end of the full term of pregnancy, in preparation for labor, there is boosting of the <a href="https://www.thebuyt.com/4-extraordinary-herbs-to-make-your-immune-system-powerful/">immune systems</a> of both the mother and baby by maternal-fetal transfer of cells through the umbilical cord. This process makes cord blood a rich source of stem cells.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">What are Stem Cells?</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Stem cells are the cells that have the potential to develop into any type of cell in the body. They can work as a repair system in the body as they can divide and renew themselves. Stem cells are unspecialized and cannot perform any specific function but have the possibility to develop into specialized cells, such as brain cells, blood cells, and muscle cells. Embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells are the two main types of stem cells.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">What is Stem cell banking?</h4>
<p dir="ltr">The stem cells found in umbilical cord blood are very precious and life-saving as their use shows promise in the treatment of life-threatening and debilitating diseases. Stem cell banking or Cord blood banking is the process of collecting the cord blood and extracting stem cells and other cells of the immune system and cryogenically freezing it for treating potential future diseases. Collecting cord blood is a safe, non-invasive, and risk-free process at childbirth. Unlike today, the umbilical cord and its blood were regarded as medical waste before the 1990s. Now, Parents opt to preserve their child’s umbilical cord blood post-delivery.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">Why Store Stem Cells?</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Stem cell preservation can provide a crucial shield in the future against a wide range of life-threatening diseases. This is possible as stem cells can offer beneficial, healing, and remedial benefits against over 80 life-threatening and fatal diseases. Stem cells are helpful not just to the baby it is extracted from, but also close family members up to grandparents. They are potent in treating diseases that need stem cell transplants including aplastic anaemia, leukemia, severe sickle disease, lymphoma, and severe combined immunodeficiency.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">The Steps Involved in Stem Cell Banking</h4>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>1. Clamping and cutting &#8211;</strong> The umbilical cord is clamped at two places 10 inches apart and cuts the cord separating the baby from the mother.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>2. Collection of Cord Blood &#8211;</strong> At least 40 milliliters of blood is collected using a fine needle inside the cord vein.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>3. Packaging of the extracted Cord Blood &#8211;</strong> The blood is drained and sealed in a blood bag and sent to a lab within 24 hours.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>4. Evaluation of extracted blood &#8211;</strong> A series of tests are performed on the cord blood to check the quality and integrity.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>5. Extraction of Stem Cells &#8211;</strong> To yield the maximum number of stem cells, Blood is processed and sieved by proven technologies.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>6. Storage of Stem Cells &#8211;</strong> The extracted stem cells are stored at -196°C for up to 21 years.</p>
<h4 dir="ltr">Stem cells can benefit the entire family</h4>
<p dir="ltr">Stem cells extracted from the baby’s umbilical cord are always a 100 percent match for the baby. Not just the baby but even immediate family members have a possibility to be a match for the stored stem cells.  Studies have shown that the siblings have a probability of 25 percent of being a perfect match and a probability of 50 percent of being a partial match. Parents, who present half the markers used in matching, have a probability of 100% in being a partial match. Not just parents and siblings but grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other extended family members belonging to the same gene pool have a greater chance of being a match who could probably benefit from the stored stem cells.</p>
