TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED REGENERATIVE MEDICINE INCUBATOR

Stem cell donation is an important and life saving technique. So many people every year are diagnosed with illnesses that will require a stem cell transplant but sometimes finding a match can be difficult. According to Mayo Clinic, “Every year, more than ten thousand people in the United States are diagnosed with life threatening diseases, such as leukemia or lymphoma, for which a stem cell transplant is the best or the only treatment. Donated blood stem cells are needed for these transplantations.” Ailing patients and their families anxiously await the phone call that a match has been found. Once a match has been found, things can move quickly and precautions need to be taken to ensure that the patient receives their life giving stem cells in a timely manner. Many times, mere hours can mean the difference between life and death. When working under such time constraints, speedy and safe shipping is crucial. Sometimes there is only one match out of tens of thousands of people and, often, donors and recipients are not located in the same city, let alone the same state. Shipping long distances can be dangerous as there are changes in temperature, humidity, and just general risk of damage, during the shipping process. Even the tiniest change in temperature or sustaining too much jostling can permanently damage the stem cells, rendering them ineffective. For these very important reasons, it is crucial that stem cells are shipped with a reliable shipping device.
