Stem Cell Incubators in our Resource Laboratory

Facility

The General Hospital of Chinese People’s Armed Police Forces officially opened its new stem cell resource laboratory in October, 2009.  It is located in the embassy area of central Beijing.

The laboratory houses 3 Mill. USD worth of laboratory equipment from world-class suppliers like Thermo Scientific, Thermo Fischer, Corning, Sanyo and Heraeus Kulzer.

People

The lab hires 15 experienced professionals. The team includes biologists, medical doctors, pharmacologists, and technicians in charge of the daily operations of the lab.

Stem Cell Processing

1. Collection and Preparation

We pay utmost care and special attention on stem cell collection and preparation due to their extremely sensitive nature. When working with fresh autologous cells, or stored donor cells we handle the cells with well-timed precision in order to preserve viability. Donor cells are rigorously tested for transmissible diseases like HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, TB, Syphilis, etc. before further processing them.

2. Purification & Culture

Stem Cell Purification in Progress

The purification process is performed in consistence with industry standard protocols to avoid variables. At each step of the process we record all the variables of each and every sample. Our cell lines are cultured under tightly controlled nutrient and environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and oxygen levels. Lab area is always maintained sterile and contaminant-free.

3. Storage and Transport

Our proprietary system guarantees precise tracking of samples. Our storage and transport facility ensure to maintain cell viability and security.
