Citation preview
ReeLabs is a zero debt, presently 10 crore company with a working capital of 100 crores that has recently
ventured into cord blood banking and stem cell research and therapy.
At ReeLabs, we have adopted the industry’s best practices and evolved a highly efficient processing mechanism
that ensures the highest yield and potency, maximising the benefits that processed stem cells can deliver
when used in treatment. We have a state-of-the-art stem cell processing laboratory with the latest and most
sophisticated technology in the heart of Mumbai. The laboratory is manned 24 x 7 by a well-qualified, highly
competent and skilled staff, to receive, process and store stem cell samples from all possible sources. The
processing is done in a specifically designed “clean room” that has international levels of sterility and hygiene.
Further we have the requisite craft and expertise to process stem cells from cord blood, cord, bone marrow,
amniotic fluid, adipose tissue and other suitable sources as need be.

COMPANY PROFILE
1
The stem cell samples in ReeLabs are collected, processed and stored as per international standards
that ensure optimum yield of stem cells. ReeLabs is a highly sophisticated, state-of-the-art Stem Cell facility
that employs a quality management system based on continuous improvement, to ensure that all aspects
of its services are consistently carried out and meets international Cellular Therapy (CT) standards. The
laboratory is in accordance with:
• GLP - Good Laboratory Practices
• GMP - Good Manufacturing Practices
• AABB - American Association of Blood Banks
These are the highest possible accreditations for Cord Blood Banks and Stem Cell Centers. We pride
ourselves on these stringent standards and guarantee that each sample is screened, processed and stored
according to the strictest international quality assurance programme. Transplant physicians are more likely
to accept an internationally accredited stem cell unit, compared to a unit that is not. The facility is replete
with a host of the finest equipments for:
• Processing - Sepax, Cooling Centrifuge
• Storage - Vapour Phase cryo-storage vessels to house over a million samples equipped with alarm
systems and liquid nitrogen back up systems
• Quality Analysis - Flow Cytometer, Polymerase Chain Reaction Laboratory [PCR Lab] and HLA
technologies that very few stem cell facilities across the globe can boast of
• Logistics & Operations Support - ReeLabs is operationally prepared with a proprietary logistics
system that will ensure delivery of a sample to the central processing facility within the first six hours
of collection
In addition to this, effective clean room and laminar flow environments (the cornerstone of healthy tissue
processing) and stringent microbiological analysis systems ensure optimum hygiene and sterility of each
and every stem cell sample. Notably, ReeLabs has various stem cell segregation techniques that can isolate
and potentially maximise benefit of numerous types of relevant or immunologically precious stem cells.
Further, it also possesses exclusive cell amplification and cell expansion systems and practices that effectively neutralise the disadvantage of an inadequate or insufficient collection.

With ReeCord’s Stem Cell Improvement System, every detail of the process has been diligently monitored
with the finest technology available (including Sepax) for saving these precious cells for your family. The result
is an industry-leading excellence and an unmatched 99% cell recovery rate. ReeCord takes every step possible
to ensure the largest successful collection and long-term safety and viability of your baby’s stem cells using either
bags or vials as per your requirement. ReeCord effectively processes and stores various types of hematopoietic
and mesenchymal stem cells for all its clients. Having more cells available for treatment is important, because a
larger number of stem cells can help a patient recover faster, experience fewer complications, and, ultimately,
increase chances for survival.
Another significant advantage is that with the virtue of ReeCord’s unique proprietary logistics systems,
it promises customers of initiation of processing in the first six hours of collection of the cord blood /
cord sample. This ensures an unbeatable count, viability and potency of the processed stem cells. ReeCord
conducted a path-breaking study where cords were processed at intervals of six hours each. It was noted that
the stem cell caliber started decreasing with every passing hour after the first six hours of collection and was
reduced to zero by the end of 72 hours.
Our proprietary Stem Cell Improvement System, including proprietary collection kits and superior processing
technology, has the highest published cell recovery rate in the industry - 99%. ReeCord’s unique system saves
25% more cells on average compared to other common methods. Cord blood volume varies by newborn, and
only stem cell improvement optimises recovery of maximum stem cells regardless of the collection volume.
Further the option of stem cell amplification (in case of inadequate collection) and HLA-matching (during
retrieval for transplant) is an additional yet exclusive service to all clients of ReeCord. With ReeCord, you can
be confident that you will have the highest possible number of cells saved from your baby’s cord blood /cord.

ReeCure’s patient cure and care proprietary treatment protocols are cutting edge, employing the latest, most
effective techniques by various experts and specialists considered leaders in their fields. All this has been
achieved after thorough, exhaustive research and numerous clinical trials (through its research division) over
many years. The type, dosage and mode of administration of stem cells is decided after thorough deliberations,
detailed medical history and meticulous counselling of patients. ReeCure has specially emphasised on providing
safe, effective stem cell treatments to the hitherto incurable congenital, developmental and degenerative
disorders viz. Cerebral Palsy, Muscular Dystrophy, Spinal cord injuries, multiple Sclerosis, ALS, stroke,
osteoarthritis, congestive cardiac failures, chronic renal failures, liver cirrhosis, diabetes etc. The
ReeCure Stem Cell Improvement System has ensured the finest yield, quality, viability and potency of stem
cells irrespective of its source.
Stem cells offered by ReeCure are essentially safe, non-toxic, devoid of side effects and easy to administer
while maximising its beneficial effects in repair and regeneration of the cell, tissue or organ. Further each
and every stem cell sample is screened by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to neutralise the ubiquitous errors
by conventional ELIZA systems in identifying window periods for HIV or Hepatitis infections and make
transplants safe and convenient to unsuspecting patients. ReeCure uses proprietary technology to segregate
stem cells from various sources like the bone marrow, cord blood, amniotic fluid, fat, bloodstream etc. A
relevant Certificate Of Analysis (COA) mentioning all details of stem cells is handed out prior to any transplant.
Further, the resounding success of these stem cell therapies has prompted the company to apply for patenting
their unique treatment protocols and also getting their studies published in leading national and international
medical journals.
The professionals at ReeCure represent more than a dozen different disciplines, including, but not limited to
General Practitioners, Physicians, Neurologists, Cardiologists, Orthopedic surgeons, Pediatricians and general
Surgeons. Early identification, intervention and treatment are essential in maximising the effect of stem cells
therapies in these disorders, helping to prevent major problems in the future and avoiding life-long expensive
yet ineffective care. ReeCure offers proven therapies that attempts to first cure the patients of his disorder or if
not then minimise the adverse impact of the disorder during his lifetime and improve quality of life manifold.
Treatment offered by ReeCure is safe, easy to administer and speedy; most often completed in just a day or
two. Yet, results are far better than the “long and ineffective” conventional therapies. Special emphasis is laid
on for treatments in “no hope” or incurable diseases with absolutely no existing therapy. Further ReeCure has
successfully provided the much desired “hope” in these numerous “no hope” disorders. ReeCure believes in
“curative” as opposed to “supportive therapy” with enough justification.
