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.
Both cord blood and cord tissue are rich sources of powerful stem cells. Cord blood stem cells are currently used in transplant medicine to regenerate healthy blood and immune systems. Cord blood banking preserves these cells for potential treatment of 80 known diseases and disorders 1, and perhaps more as research continues into these cellsâ ability to act like a bodyâs personal repair kit.
