What is stem cell banking?
Your baby's birth is a one-time biological opportunity.
At the moment of birth, the umbilical cord and placenta contain an extraordinary concentration of stem cells — the body's master cells, capable of regenerating into blood, tissue, and organs.
These cells are young, potent, and perfectly matched to your baby. Once the cord is cut and the placenta is delivered, this window closes forever. Stem cell banking is the process of collecting, processing, and storing these cells so they're available if your family ever needs them.
As a family who welcomed their baby through Asian Egg Bank, AlphaCord covers the full cost of collection, processing, shipping, and your first year of storage — an $850 value, included at no cost.
80+ conditions treatable today
Stem cells derived from cord blood and tissue are already used in treatment for over 80 diseases — including cancers, blood disorders, and immune conditions. This number grows every year.
4,000+ active clinical trials
Researchers worldwide are testing stem cell therapies for conditions like cerebral palsy, autism, Type 1 diabetes, and heart disease. What's experimental today may be standard care by the time your child needs it.
25 years of proven long-term viability
Cord blood stem cells stored for over 25 years have been successfully used in transplants. Cryogenic preservation at –196°C halts all biological activity — cells don't age in storage.
Zero risk to mother or baby
Collection happens after birth, from the cord and placenta that would otherwise be discarded. There is no medical procedure performed on the mother or newborn.

Advanced processing & secure storage
State-of-the-art technology designed to preserve the integrity and long-term viability of your baby’s stem cells.
A legacy of trust in family stem cell banking
With over two decades of experience, AlphaCord provides families with a dependable biological resource for future medical needs.
What we collect at birth
Three sources. Maximum protection.
AlphaCord collects from all three birth sources — giving your child the broadest biological coverage possible.
Cord Blood
Rich in haematopoietic stem cells. Used for 30+ years to treat 80+ conditions including leukaemia, sickle cell disease, and immune disorders.
Cord Tissue
Contains mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) being studied in 1,000+ clinical trials for tissue repair, regenerative therapy, and inflammatory conditions.
Placenta
Up to 10× more stem cells than cord blood alone. One of the richest biological resources available at birth — and typically discarded if not banked.
Because your child is egg-donor-conceived, they will not have a biological sibling match from the same donor — making their own cord blood, cord tissue, and placenta the most important and irreplaceable biological resource they will ever have. Their stem cells are a perfect match to them and cannot be collected at any other time.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know
What is newborn stem cell banking?
At birth, your baby's umbilical cord and placenta contain powerful stem cells that can be used to treat serious diseases. Banking means collecting and storing these cells immediately after delivery — before they're lost forever. It's a one-time opportunity that only exists at birth.
Is the collection safe for my baby and me?
Completely. Collection happens after your baby is born and the cord is cut — nothing is done to you or your newborn during the process. It takes a few minutes and is performed by your existing hospital team using the AlphaCord kit.
Why is this especially important for egg-donor-conceived families?
Because your child was conceived using a donor egg, they won't have access to a biological sibling from the same donor who could serve as a matched stem cell donor. This makes their own cord blood, cord tissue, and placenta uniquely critical — a perfectly matched biological resource that exists only at the moment of birth and can never be collected again. For egg-donor-conceived children, banking is not just an option, it's the most important biological safety net available to them.
What is included in the free kit?
Your complimentary kit includes: the AlphaCord Newborn Stem Cell Collection Kit, free processing of your baby's sample, free shipping both ways, and your first year of storage — an $850 value, covered entirely through your Asian Egg Bank graduate benefit.
