Cord Blood is a type of stem cell derived from the umbilical cord and placenta of newborn babies. It is a rich source of hematopoietic stem cells, which are used to treat a variety of diseases and disorders, including leukemia, lymphoma, and sickle cell anemia. Cord Blood stem cells are also used in regenerative medicine, such as tissue engineering and cell therapy. Cord Blood stem cells are collected from the umbilical cord and placenta shortly after birth and stored in a cryogenic facility. The cells can then be used for transplantation or research purposes. Cord Blood banks provide a safe and secure way to store and access stem cells for future use.
