Two Sources: Placenta-Derived Stem Cell and Cord Blood Banking
Placenta-Derived Stem Cell and Cord Blood Banking
Today there are many cord blood banks from which to choose. When selecting a bank for the storage of stem cells from a baby’s cord blood, it is important to consider whether the bank offers a process known as Placenta-Cord banking. This process makes it possible for stems cells to be banked from not just one source, but from two sources.
As a result, the family is able to benefit from two distinctive units. This unique combination of stem cells from the placenta and cord blood can provide the most stem cells possible for potential future health needs. This is an important note to consider as research indicates that the more stem cells, particularly CD34+ stem cells, available for treatment the higher the likelihood of treatment success and patient survival. Through a simple, safe, and fast process, your child can have the advantage of more treatment options for future potentially life-threatening diseases.
