Maximizing use of cells in core blood storage. saving cord blood will soon yield greater numbers of of cord blood stem cells for transplant There is new technology that is being developed to helps maximize the existing supply of public cord blood. This new technology does not concentrate on the efficiency of the actual storage of the harvested cord blood cells. It concentrates on putting the limited number of cord blood cells that are collected to the maximum use possible. With the employment of certain growth factors blood cell researchers are learning to expand the number of stem cells in the individual’s cord blood. In the expansion of the number of cells using the collected cells the researchers are aiming to increase dramatically the for successful engraftment. Engraftment simply put is the process in which the new blood system is formed. The more cells there are that can be made available when attempting the process the better the chances for that desired outcome. Another method of providing a greater number of the blood cord stem cells to enhance chances for successful engraftment is the use of two matched cord blood donors. This method of "double transplant" instead of just the cells available from one donor is beginning to yield data that are encouraging says one researcher. The methodology still needs refinement but the outlook is hopeful. These methods of getting more bang for the umbilical cord collection buck has the potential after refinements to the methodology to allow a single cord blood donor to provide enough cells for transplant procedures in multiple individual patients. Some cord blood would be removed out of the cord blood bank for transplantation and some would be saved this remaining umbilical blood cell supply would then be enhanced or expanded in population with the use of the growth factors previously mentioned here. These cells would then be returned to storage for a time that they may be needed by the original umbilical cord blood donor. The outlook for great advances in this technology is good and the application of an expanded availability of umbilical blood cells to new treatments thanks to cord blood storage. news story on Cordblood colection
