Umbilical cord blood banking: evaluation of the collection procedure and of CFU-GM content

F Bertolini et al. J Hematother. 1993 Summer.

Abstract

Procedures have been optimized for the collection and evaluation of colony-forming cells (CFG-FM) in umbilical cord blood. In a study of 64 samples, early clamping of the cord resulted in increased collection volumes. CFU-GM were not significantly affected by the choice of culture medium.
