Description: Narayana Hrudayalaya Tissue Bank and Stem Cell Research Center (NHTB-SCRC) is a joint venture between Rotary Bangalore Health City (RBHC) and Narayana Hrudayalaya. Our mission is to create awareness on Cord Blood Banking among the masses. Our vision is to make sure that every pregnant mother in India is able to afford to bank her child''s cord blood and cord tissue in a novel form of ������??Biological Insurance������??. The center would also assist in research and development of newer stem cell therapies. These goals are met while ensuring patient safety and well being by maintaining compliance with ICMR guidelines, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) guidelines, strict confidentiality and adherence to ethical standards. The private cord blood bank would store cord-blood and cord tissue derived stem cells for the exclusive use of clients who would pay for the cryo-storage, for a period of 21 years. These samples would be used for the child or its siblings anytime in the future, for therapy of various medical conditions. The public cord blood bank would enable us to collect cord blood from delivery and birthing centers, process these specimens, type their HLA signature and store them in ultra-low temperature conditions for use on prospective recipients. These recipients would have to be matched against their HLA signature with the stored stem cell concentrate. Patients with a disease treatable by stem cell therapy would have to have their HLA type known and they approach us for treatment. Such patients would be matched against our library of samples to identify a suitable match which would then be issued at a nominal cost. The cost of therapy would however be separate and informed to the patient before embarking on the treatment.
