Discover What's Possible
Your newborn’s umbilical cord offers an opportunity to plan for your family’s future health right from the start.
Cord Blood Banking
Collect and save stem cells from your newborn's umbilical cord blood. Cord blood can be used in stem cell transplants for nearly 80 conditions to regenerate a healthy blood and immune system, and in clinical trials exploring new potential applications.
Cord blood is a rich source of Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs) which are responsible for creating all types of blood cells that build and maintain our blood and immune system including:
- Red Blood cells
- White Blood Cells
- Platelets
Cord Tissue Banking
Cord tissue stem cells are extensively studied in clinical trials and hold promise for addressing conditions that cord blood stem cells cannot. Banking cord tissue along with cord blood increases the therapeutic possibilities for your family.
Cord tissue is packed with Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs), which have natural anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties and the potential to develop into various types of cells, including:
- Bone
- Cartilage
- Muscle
DNA Health Insights
Your newborn's cord blood holds a wealth of health information. Unlike other banks, ViaCord can mine through the data using a small sample of cord blood and provide useful genetic health insights to support your child’s health journey.
For families banking cord blood ViaCord offers additional genetic tests providing insights into:
- A child's predisposition to celiac disease and primary lactose intolerance
- Potential disease-causing variants in genes associated with actionable, childhood-onset conditions
- Medication Sensitivities

People Ask . . .
How long can cord blood be stored for?
To date, there is no evidence that cord blood will ever expire. Recent studies published in Stem Cell Translation Medicine found cryopreserving cord blood stem cells for extended periods doesn't affect their ability to function effectively. The 27-year study and 29-year study add to a growing body of research demonstrating the value of cord blood banking.
Can I still bank if I do delayed cord clamping?
The short answer - yes! The timing of cord clamping is a personal decision that should discussed your healthcare provider. Cord blood and tissue collection start after the cord is cut, whenever that is. If your cord blood sample doesn't meet our recommended minimum to store, we’ll let you know. Delayed clamping doesn’t affect cord tissue collection.
Does ViaCord have a referral rewards program?
Yes! And our customers love it because you can earn a free year of cord blood storage for each friend you refer who banks with ViaCord. Head over to our Refer a Friend page for more details.
Why use cord blood for genetic testing?
Using a small sample of cord blood offers parents who are planning to bank an incredibly convenient way to benefit from early insights and detection that genetic tests can provide. Cord blood can be used for multiple testing options.
Does having a c-section impact collection?
No. The collection process proceeds essentially the same way with a cesarean section as it would in natural birth. Our cord blood collection bag can be used in sterile C-sections.
How long has ViaCord been around?
ViaCord started in 1993 as a family cord blood bank. Today, we're proud to a part of Revvity, a global leader in diagnostics and life sciences.
