At QualTex, Testing Is Our Business

Your Partner for

Whole Blood Donor Screening

QualTex focuses on serving as your partner for whole blood testing by supporting your mission, and leaving you secure in your relationships with your hospital clients. Our blood bank affiliate, the South Texas Blood & Tissue Center, seeks regional contracts, rather than competing on a national level or in your markets for blood donors or clients. Because you need a partner that brings a variety of advantages to the table, QualTex is part of an enterprise that includes the Texas Cord Blood Bank and GenCure regenerative medicine services. We can bring you partnerships that allow collaboration in related high-tech industries, without the threat of competition for your core business.
