Our
laboratory
This is Europe's largest specialized and ultra-modern laboratory, which specializes in the preparation of umbilical cord blood, placental blood and umbilical cord, as well as prepares stem cells for transplantation. This laboratory is the real reason to be proud of us.
Our laboratory
The laboratory receives blood delivered from all over Poland 7 days a week. All processes are carried out according to the most restrictive procedures of the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB) and are subject to the supervision of the Scientific-Medical Council.
The laboratory also performs blood tests for public resources and scientific projects jointly with research institutions (e.g., Polish Academy of Sciences and medical universities).

Our laboratory also offers public banking services at the request of the Ministry of Health. This is offered as part of the Program for the Development of Transplantation Medicine POLGRAFT, as well as in research projects performed in collaboration with research institutions (e.g. Polish Academy of Sciences).
We offer the most extensive range of the child’s umbilical cord blood and mother’s blood testing which include among others:
- CD34+ cell count evaluation ensuring the quality of biological material
