About National Cord Blood Program (NCBP)
Launched in 1992, NCBP was the first established cord blood bank to collect, process, test and store cord blood units and make them available for transplantation for any patient in need for a hematopoietic stem cell transplant. NCBP accepts requests from all over the world. Cord blood units can be accessed through the NETCord database, and now through the Single Point of Access (SPA) of the National Marrow Donor Program.
