Our Mission
Saving Lives
RedC is on a global mission to save lives by developing an innovative process and technologies that produce safe universal Red Blood Cells for transfusions in situations requiring medical intervention such as trauma, childbirth, operations, chronic illness, cancer and more. RedC Biotech's universal red blood cells will also be used as a unique platform for advanced therapies.
High Quality
RedC is developing a quality process resulting with synchronized cultures of red blood cells, produced using state of the art materials
Massive Scale
RedC will produce red blood cells in large volume bioreactors, allowing production in masses required to fulfill the global supply
Low Cost
Production in large volumes leads to economy of scale, lower run rates, lower testing costs and procurement of raw materials at low prices
Global Reach
RedC will produce red blood cells in manufacturing plants in several regions around the world, allowing on-time supply of blood units upon demand

The Need
Need and Challenges
Essential
Red blood cell transfusions are essential in many medical interventions ranging from trauma, surgery, chronic illness and cancer treatments, to childbirth emergencies
Oxygen Carrier
Red blood cells (Erythrocytes) are the oxygen carrying capacity of the body
Global Shortage
Globally, nearly 120 million blood units are donated every year, yet there is a constant shortage of millions of units
Complex Supply Chain
Practices and administration of blood from donors to the patients are complex procedures from blood collection logistics, screening, testing and storage to delivery
Safety
This industry is constantly challenged to ensure the safety of the donated blood, test type matching and vigilance of current and emerging diseases to avoid transmittance of undesired donor blood elements
Availability and Cost
Blood inventories are managed carefully in each country
but frequently are operating at low risky levels, requiring the need for special donations and blood drives. The complex supply chain and the need for extra testing, matching and continuous handling affects the pricing of blood units
In the Search for a Reliable Source
There is a global need to replace this century old practice with a method that is safe, clean, accessible and cost effective and remove the need for donors from this life saving process
There is a need for new blood...

Technology
Revolutionary Technology
Industrial Red Blood Cell Production
Innovative 3D stem cell cultivation in chemically defined serum-free media
Multi-patent protected, exclusively licensed core technology
Large scale production
Red blood cell production will move from lab scale to large scale bioreactors
Uniform, undifferentiated, self-renewable, efficiently cultured human stem cells cultivated as single-cells in suspension
At an extremely high cell concentration the cells are differentiated to become Red Blood Cells
Red Blood Cells are harvested, rinsed, concentrated, packed and distributed
Cost Reduction
Massive scale-up
Economy of scale - orders of magnitude cheaper
Process automation
Selection and sourcing of advanced raw materials
From Lab to Global Production - Scaling the Count of Red Blood Cells
