Quality Assurance & Training —» Mission
 
Leader in:
  • Qualified and Accredited Collection Sites
  • Accredited Maternities and Hospitals
  • Above 1,000 physicians bank their babies umbilical cord with Cryopraxis
  • + 10,000 stored samples

Cryopraxis is committed to health.

Stockholders have been in health care and pharmaceutical industry for more than 25 years.

Cryopraxis’ project dates back to 1996 when a group of scientists decided to develop stem cell expansion protocols. At that time and since then, there have been growing data as to the potential of stem cells in the field of regenerative medicine. Validated protocols were developed and implemented as to:

  • Collection
  • Transportation
  • Processing
  • Quality Control Analysis
  • Freezing
  • Extreme Low Temperature Long Time Storage
  • Thawing
  • Management & CRM

Thawing means “defrosting” and assuring the sample will furnish viable cells.


Every detail in each operation is thought and performed accordingly with the highest possible accuracy.

Validated protocols are the key factor in determining whether the sample will be viable if needed.

    That cell sample which was in a person’s body (at “positive” 36.5° Celsius or +97.70 Fahrenheit ) is submitted to the harsh conditions of extreme low temperature (average “minus” 190° Celsius or -320,80 Fahrenheit) and one expect and assure once that sample is needed and brought back to its original environment it is “viable”. Viability meaning the cell will do its job.

In the year of 2001 Cryopraxis started its commercial operations. Dedication and attention to every detail and care for its customers have made Cryopraxis a leader in cord blood preservation and stem cell therapeutics.

Cryopraxis continues to set the standards of cryogenic storage, cord blood and bone marrow stem cell preservation and to research new, life-saving applications utilizing stem cells.

Validation Studies

Prior to launching our stem cell and cord blood banking services, Cryopraxis conducted extensive research and validation studies to guarantee that we set the highest standards regarding the collection, processing, and storage of cord blood. Cryopraxis worked closely with the following institutions:

  • Rio de Janeiro Federal University General Hospital
  • Pro-Matre Hospital Rio de Janeiro
  • Rio de Janeiro University Cell Bank
  • Paul Erlich Association for Bioengineering and Cell Therapy Development
  • The Bio-Rio Foundation
  • São Luiz General Hospital São Paulo
  • Perinatal de Laranjeiras Hospital Rio de Janeiro
