Theory. Practice. Progress

At 21CM, we take our science seriously. We practice it, we preach it, and we teach it -- because our clients deserve the best that modern biomedical research has to offer. And—ultimately—so do patients who deserve the best in advanced care.

The Benefits of Dedication

A driving passion to find, develop, and implement innovative new biopreservation technologies that move the life sciences toward the goal of better patient care rests at the heart and soul of 21CM. That’s why we’re committed to providing services based on the finest science and technology in the industry. We believe that the only way to effectively deliver on the promise of these emerging technologies is by practicing high science, working with other experts in the field, and serving our clients well.

Our reputation as an emerging leader in preservation technology has attracted a scientific and medical professional staff composed of thought-leaders who are at the forefront of developing and delivering preservation solutions. It has also allowed us to develop productive research collaborations with experts in other specialized areas for the ultimate benefit of our clients.

Results-driven for Clients and Investors

We take great responsibility to deliver solutions that our clients can count on. We deliver our services in a timely manner and provide our clients with easy access to our scientific staff. Beyond providing top-shelf research services, we also foster a company culture where employees understand the importance of each project and the needs of the client at the end of every project.

This culture of providing superior client service not only ensures that we exceed customer expectations, but also creates a sustainable base of business that will support continued growth for our investors.

Advanced Facility and Tools

Our corporate offices and multi-million dollar research and development laboratories are located in a 10,000 square foot free-standing research center in Rancho Cucamonga, less than 50 miles from Los Angeles, California. For our clients’ convenience, we’re easily accessible via two nearby major interstate highways and the recently built Ontario International Airport.

In order to help our clients meet their low temperature biology challenges, we continually invest in the most sophisticated laboratory tools available. Some of the tools we use include:

electron microscopy, light microscopic videography, cryomicroscopy, high performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array and refractive index detection, differential scanning calorimetry, SELDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and high-speed imaging of rapid changes in membrane potential using voltage sensitive dyes.

We’ve also invented and custom fabricated a variety of new tools specifically designed to meet our clients’ research goals. They include:

Individually customized “Controlled Isothermic Vapor Storage Systems” (CIVS Units)
Specialty Research Perfusion Apparatus
Ultra Low Temperature Glove Boxes
Cardiac Resuscitation and Transport devices
Anastomotic Cuffs for use in Transplant Surgery.
Unique Veterinary Surgical Instruments and Devices
Mobile Low Temperature Viewing Chambers
Large Systems Cryoperfusion Devices (Cryoperfusor)
