The Spanish National Stem Cell Bank (Banco Nacional de Líneas Celulares, BNLC) was established in 2006 thanks to a change in the legislative framework in Spain. The Law 14/2006 updated the previous Assisted Reproduction Techniques Law (Law 45/2003) allowing the use of the surplus frozen embryos following IVF for research. The BNLC has a network structure with 3 nodes: the Regenerative Medicine Program (IDIBELL), the Principe Felipe Research Center (CIPF) in Valencia and the Andalusian Public Health System Biobank (SSPA Biobank) in Granada. The aim of the BNLC is to guarantee throughout the national territory the availability of human stem cell lines for biomedical research. At present time, there are 40 human embryonic stem cell lines (hESC) and 171 human induced pluripotent stem cell lines (hiPSC) registered in the BNLC. These lines are fully characterized and available in the context of research projects approved by the Technical Committee of the BNLC.

西班牙国家干细胞银行（Banco Nacional deLíneasCelulares，BNLC）成立于2006年，这是由于西班牙立法框架发生了变化。第14/2006号法律对先前的《辅助生殖技术法》（第45/2003号法律）进行了更新，允许在IVF之后使用多余的冷冻胚胎进行研究。BNLC的网络结构包含三个节点：再生医学计划（IDIBELL），巴伦西亚的普林西比·费利佩研究中心（CIPF）和格拉纳达的安达卢西亚公共卫生系统生物库（SSPA Biobank）。BNLC的目的是在全国范围内保证用于生物医学研究的人类干细胞系的可用性。目前，在BNLC中注册了40种人类胚胎干细胞系（hESC）和171种人类诱导多能干细胞系（hiPSC）。
