Cord Blood

Each cord is different and the number of CD 34+ cells varies greatly among the individual donors. Typically, 1-4 million CD 34+ cells per cord can be collected. We can provide larger lots upon request.

Yes, upon request.

Yes, we have many researchers that use our CD34+ cells to humanize mice.

NO, our cord blood CD34+ stem cells are for research use only and are not approved by the FDA for use in humans.

Yes, upon request.

Primary cells are very sensitive to many aspects of the thawing procedure, such as heat, DMSO, agitation, and high centripetal forces. Obtaining high viability after thawing human primary cells can be difficult if not performed quickly and with good laboratory techniques. At CGT Global, our laboratory technicians have years of experience handling and thawing frozen human primary cells and have designed a procedure that will help you obtain the highest viability of your cells.
