Abstract:
A total of 47 cord blood collection were analysed for CD 34+ progenitor cells. Results: volume (ml) without anticoagulant 64ml (40-90). Total NC 9.82x108+/- 0.45. Total CD 34+ 1.79x10 +/-1.4. Mean percentage of CD34+: 0.32%+/ 0.24. Given that a transplanted cell dose of 20x106 NC/kg body weight would be sufficient for hematopoiesis, 95% of all stored CB samples would be sufficient for patients up to 10 kg body weight and 36% for patients up to 40 kg body weight.
