Cord blood contains all the normal elements of blood-red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma. But it is also rich in hematopoietic (blood-forming) stem cells, similar to those found in bone marrow. This is why cord blood can be used for transplantation as an alternative to bone marrow.
Cord blood remains in the umbilical cord and placenta following a babyâs birth. Cord blood is a rich source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), currently used to treat about 80 blood-and bone-related diseases. Cord tissue refers to the tissue of the umbilical cord, not the blood it contains.
