ThermoGenesis Announces 510(k) Clearance for AutoXpress(TM) Cord Blood Processing System

Date:10/9/2007

articles indicate stem cells residing in cord blood can also differentiate into other tissues of the body, including the brain, gone cartilage and muscle, indicating potential broader application of cord blood stem cells in future clinical use.

With approximately four million births per year in the Untied States alone, cord blood represents a large, natural resource for use in the treatment of malignant and genetic diseases in which sourcing does not involve donor risk. Cord blood is saved when a baby is born, processed and cryogenically stored for future use. Following the first successful cord blood transplant performed in 1988, awareness of the potential therapeutic value of cord blood stem cells has increased and collection and storage has grown rapidly.
