LAGUNA HILLS, Calif., Oct. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CalbaTech, Inc. , an emerging life sciences company (http://www.CalbaTech.com ) concentrating on the collection and banking of adult stem cells for possible future therapeutic uses and providing products and platforms to the biotech and pharmaceutical research markets and to academic institutions, today said that LifeStem(TM) Inc. CEO and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Jason R. Van Tassel has successfully completed training the owners and Chief Medical Office of the Youthtopia Med Spa, a state-of-the-art medical spa in Alpharetta, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta.
When blood and adipose tissue are collected from a client within the next 30 days, it will mark the first time in the U.S. that adult stem cells have been harvested from both sources for future medical use. LifeStem’s Stem Cell Microbank(TM) Service is expected to be offered in other spas in other states soon.
LifeStem(TM) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CalbaTech. The unique process it developed allows for the collection of adult stem cells in micro quantities to be cryopreserved for future transplantation into the same client for medical purposes. LifeStem(TM) also trained the staff on selling techniques.
“Four people were given contracts for immediate service with others expected to follow soon after,” said James DeOlden, CalbaTech CEO. “It makes sense to bank adult stem cells while the person is healthy for possible future medical use, with possible therapies ranging from heart disease to diabetes and other medical issues that are currently difficult to treat.”
