Beike is currently the largest stem cell provider in China.

What kind of stem cells does Beike use?

Beike uses three types of stem cells: umbilical cord blood, umbilical cord and autologous bone marrow.

Beike's preparation and use of stem cells have been honed through years of research, testing and clinical practice. Beike's stem cells are derived from healthy donors who are carefully screened for transmissible diseases. The samples are additionally screened by government appointed blood banks and Beike’s specialized laboratories. The stem cells are then banked in state-of-the-art facilities and only utilized in partnership with the best hospitals and physicians.

What is a stem cell?

A stem cell is a cell which hasn't yet been assigned to perform a specific funtion in the body, ie. it is a neutral cell, therefore it still has the ability to develop into other cells to perform different functions.
