Based in South Africa, Next Biosciences is a unique company.  It owns Netcells, Africa’s largest private stem cell bank. It also recently merged with a local laboratory, Genesis Genetics, making Next Biosciences the only facility on the African continent to offer genetic and metabolic screening, as well as storage of umbilical cord blood and tissue for use in regenerative medicine applications.

As such, Next Biosciences plays a leading role within the South African cord blood banking marketplace and operates within genetic and metabolic screening markets.

To learn more about Next Biosciences and its recent merger with Genesis Genetics South Africa, read the company press release below, printed with permission from the company’s Public Relations advisor, Gina de Villiers.

No Longer Just for Humans — Cord Blood Banking Now Available to Horses Too

March 21, 2016 By Cade Hildreth (CEO) Leave a Comment

VetiCell Launches Veterinary Stem Cell Preservation Program - Red border collie dog and horse

VetiCell, LLC, has announced that it is launching a proactive stem cell storage program for animals, in which it will collect stem cells from the umbilical cord of horses or from the reproductive tissues of dogs following spay or neuter.

VetiCell is a sister company to AlphaCord, a human cord blood bank, with the two companies having the same owner and staff.

Currently, there are a couple companies operating in the veterinary stem cell market that collect stem cells through invasive methods (adipose or bone marrow). However, VetiCell’s new model is to collect veterinary stem cells without surgery from the umbilical cord of horses or from reproductive tissues after canine spay and neuter. These methods require no additional invasive surgery to collect an animal’s stem cells.

Since 2006, BioInformant has been tracking the human stem cell banking market. Initially, the market was focused  on the storage of umbilical cord blood, although it has expanded over the past ten years to include the storage of other types of stem cells, including those present within cord tissue, dental pulp, adipose tissue, and more.

With hundreds of human cord blood banks now competing worldwide, it will be interesting to see whether any of them add equine cord blood banking to their portfolio of human stem cell storage services.
