<span lang="EN-IN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">Expecting a baby is one of the beautiful yet
important phases of life. Several decisions are to be made and what to do with
your newborns cord blood is just one of them. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cord_blood">Cord blood</a> is a precious
commodity that is collected from a newborn right after birth. Being a rich
source of stem cells, cord blood is currently used to treat more than 80
diseases including several forms of cancers, immune disorders, blood disorders
and genetically inherited diseases to mention a few. Parents may discard it,
donate it to public banks or store it in a private cord blood banking facility.
Storing cord blood and tissue at private banks may cost you whereas donations
are free of cost. Cord blood donated to the public bank is used either for
medical research or stem cell transplants. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-IN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">Private cord blood banking have been gaining
immense popularity in the recent times, as you can find its marketing pitches
everywhere – at doctor’s waiting rooms, pregnancy related mobile apps,
parenting magazines and more. The month of July is even considered as National
Cord Blood Awareness Month. But according to the doctors, parents need to be
very cautious when signing up for the private cord blood storage. Expectant
parents need to think long and hard before taking an informed decision. Banking
your newborns cord blood at a private bank is an expensive affair, as the
processing fees can run from </span><span lang="EN-GB">roughly $500 to $2,500 with
the annual storage fees of $100 to $300 each year thereafter. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Most of the
parents who opt for <a href="https://www.caricord.com/">private cord blood banking</a> consider it as a precious
resource and biological life insurance for their kid. Even though, the chances
of your child benefiting from his or her own cord blood are less than 0.04
percent. This is because the cord blood contains the same cells and genetic
defects that are responsible for the diseases in the first place. So, the best
case is to choose private banking only if your family has a medical history of
diseases currently treatable with cord blood. Talk with your doctor in order to
discuss all the possibilities and take a wise decision. </span></div>

more and more parents to bank their newborn’s umbilical cord blood and tissue. As
a rich source of stem cells, cord blood is currently used in several lifesaving
transplants and is expected to cure more debilitating conditions in the future.

<span lang="EN-IN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">What makes cord blood so unique and
valuable? Until recently, the blood present in the placenta and umbilical cord
was disposed as medical waste right after the child birth. But with the
discovery of the abundance of stem cell in the cord blood, things have changed.
Stem cells present in the cord blood are capable of dividing and renewing
themselves. Since they are unspecialized templates, these cells can be
developed into specialized cells and tissues. It is their renewal property that
proves beneficial in treating several life threatening conditions. During stem
cell transplants, the damaged cells are destroyed and replaced with cord blood
stem cells, which then replicates and produce new blood cells. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Expectant parents have a number
of major decisions to make as they prepare to welcome the new member to family.
One of the big financial decisions is about banking the cord blood. If you are
wondering <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-blood"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="what is cord blood">what is cord blood</b></a>, then
let us explain. The umbilical cord that connects the mother to the growing
fetus is cut after the birth. A small amount of blood remains in the blood
vessels of the placenta and cord even after the delivery, which is termed as
cord blood. In addition to the normal elements of blood (red blood cells, white
blood cells, platelets and plasma), cord blood contains multipotent stem cells.
These unspecialized cells with self-renewing capabilities can give rise to
other cell types. However, the specialization potential of multipotent stem
cells is limited to one or more cell lines. Presence of mutipotent stem cells
in cord blood and cord tissues makes it life saving resource. And that is why
medial communities are encouraging the expectant parents to bank or donate the
cord blood rather than throwing it away. <a href="https://www.caricord.com/pricing"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="Cost of cord blood banking">Cost of cord blood banking</b></a> is worthy, especially if your family has a history of

What are the major steps involved
in the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">cord blood stem cell banking</b>
process? If you have decided to bank your infant’s cord blood and umbilical
cord tissue, then it is essential to complete the enrollment process in the
early stages of pregnancy. Choose a reputed private cord blood bank and sign up
for their services. A collection kit will be provided to you upon enrollment. Make
it a point to inform your doctor about your cord blood banking decision. Also,
remember to carry the kit with you when leaving the hospital for delivery. Right
after the child birth, the cord blood and tissue is collected to the sterile
bag.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Collection process is simple, safe
and quick, as it neither poses any risk to mother or baby. Collected samples
are couriered to the cord blood bank through specialized logistics for ensuring
safe delivery. As soon as the samples reach the bank, they are individually
tested and processed. Stem cells harvested from the cord blood are mixed with
cryopreservatives for long term storage. Later, these stem cells are frozen
down slowly and then placed inside large stainless steel tanks supplied with
liquid nitrogen so that the stem cells remain preserved for decades. </div>

have a remarkable potential to renew themselves through cell division which
help in internal repairing. In some organs such as gut and bone marrow, the
damaged cells are repaired and replaced by the stem cells on a routine basis. Another
important characteristic that distinguishes stem cells from other cell types is
its capability to become an organ-specific cell under certain physiologic or
experimental conditions. </div>

The field of stem cell research
and regenerative medicine has been advancing at a rapid rate over the past
decade. For those who are wondering about the hype surrounding stem cell
biology - stem cells or master cells have the remarkable property to self-replicate
throughout the life of the organism. Moreover, they can give rise to
specialized cells which further take the place of damaged or dead cells. Unlike
other mature cells that are permanently committed to their function, stem cells
have a unique property to renew themselves and develop into specialized cells
of the body. Major sources of stem cells include bone marrow, umbilical cord,
embryo and adipose tissue. </div>

the practice of harvesting stem cells for long storage for transplants or
research purpose. However, <a href="https://www.caricord.com/why-stem-cell-research-is-being-pursued">embryonic stem cell banking</a> has steeped in ethical
controversy centered on embryo destruction. That is where the role of umbilical
cord stem cell banking takes the limelight. Umbilical cord blood, once
discarded as per medical status, is now treasured by the medical communities.
The cord blood that provides nourishment to the growing fetus is a great source
of stem cells. Nowadays, <a href="https://www.caricord.com/">the umbilical cord blood and tissue</a> is collected right
after the child birth. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Why save baby cord blood</b>? What are its benefits? Is it worth the
money? Blood present in the baby’s umbilical cord contains stem cells. Multipotent
adult stem cells present in the umbilical cord blood make it a precious
resource in the medical and research field. And that is why baby’s cord blood,
which was once discarded as medical waste, is now collected and saved for long
term storage. The first human transplant using cord stem cells was performed in
1988. It was for treating Fanconi anemia – an inherited disease that mainly
affects the bone marrow. Cord blood that was used to treat only one disease at
that time can now treat nearly 80 diseases.<br />

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell">Hematopoietic stem cells</a> (HSCs)
present in the baby cord blood can be used to restore the damaged blood cells
in our body. Developed from mesodermal hemangioblast cells, HSCs are
self-renewing progenitor cells that has the potential to generate multitude of
cell types found in the blood stream including red blood cells, white blood
cells and megakaryocytes. Hematologic and nonhematologic cancers, autoimmune
disorders, various forms of anemia and immunodeficiency disorders can be
treated with the cord blood Hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCTs). Why
cord blood stem cell transplants are gaining wide acceptance in the medical
community? Cord blood stem cell transplants require a less-stringent HLA match
and carry a lower risk of graft-vs-host disease. Moreover, the transplant
outcomes are more effective and better with cord blood applications when
compared to other transplant methods. </div>

From diagnostic tools to
treatment modalities, innovative advancements in the medical technology have
been offering promising solutions to increase the quality of patient’s life and
cure the root cause of debilitating conditions effectively. Introduction of
umbilical cord blood stem cell transplants is a case in point. Umbilical cord
which connects the mother to a developing fetus has mainly two layers – an
outer layer of smooth muscle and inner layer made from gelatinous Wharton’s
jelly. The cord has one vein and two arteries. Vein supplies oxygen and nutrient-rich
blood to the fetus whereas arteries take away the nutrient depleted and
deoxygenated blood from the fetus.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Placenta and umbilical cord are
the two crucial support systems of a healthy pregnancy. Placenta not only
provides nourishment to the growing fetus but also takes away the waste from
the fetus to mother’s system for excretion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The cord structure that connects placenta to the fetus is called
umbilical cord. Known as the lifeline between mother and baby, umbilical cord
carries oxygenated blood from placenta to baby through its vein and takes away
deoxygenated blood from baby to placenta through its arteries. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Blood present in the umbilical
cord, which was once considered as a medical waste, is now known to be a
valuable resource. Abundant presence of stem cells in the newborn’s umbilical cord
blood (CB) makes it a lifesaving resource and that is why the medical community
is encouraging the storage of cord blood stem cells. Used to treat more than 70
types of diseases including <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukemia">leukemia</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphoma">lymphoma</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sickle-cell_disease">sickle-cell disease</a>, metabolic

tap into the potential of cord blood and cord tissue stem cells. Unlike the
bone marrow stem cell harvesting, cord blood collection and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">stem cell banking</b> is a painless
procedure that doesn’t require any invasive methods. Easy and quick CB
collection carried out immediately after the delivery neither hurts the mother

the last decade. Let us take stem cell research as an example. Being one
of the promising areas of biomedical research, stem cell biology has received
wide attention. According to researchers, stem cell science has the potential to
change the scope and future of regenerative medicine. However, harvesting and
collection of stem cells is always surrounded by several set of ethical controversies.
That is when cord blood stem cell banking came into limelight. Before we delve
into the details of cord blood banking, let us find out <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-blood"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="what cord blood is">what cord blood is</b></a>. As you may know, umbilical cord connects the foetus
with placenta and is responsible for providing oxygen and nutrient-rich blood
to the growing embryo. After the baby is born, umbilical cord is cut. But even
after the child birth, there will be some amount of blood remaining in the
umbilical cord and placenta. This is termed as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cord_blood"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">cord blood</b>(CB)</a> or placental blood. Around 180 ml of cord blood can
be collected right after the child birth. What makes the <a href="https://www.caricord.com/"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="umbilical cord blood">umbilical cord blood</b></a> so valuable? It is the presence of blood
forming hematopoietic stem cells that offers a life-saving status to the CB. Not
just the cord blood, but the cord tissue also contains <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesenchymal_stem_cell">Mesenchymal stem cells</a>.</div>

research. Currently cord blood is used to treat more than 80 life threatening
conditions which include but are not limited to blood disorders, metabolic
disorders, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunodeficiency">immunodeficiencies</a> and certain types of cancer. On the other hand,

<span lang="EN-GB">If you have
heard about the stem cell research, then you might be familiar with its
surrounding controversies also. Stem cells, also known as the master cells have
a remarkable potential to treat many life-threatening conditions. Currently,
these cells are used for various transplants and medical applications.
Moreover, several clinical trials and research works are underway exploring its
potential to treat even more debilitating conditions in future. Applications
and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><a href="https://www.caricord.com/stem-cells-and-what-they-do" title="benefits of stem cell research">benefits of stem cell research</a> </b>are
many.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Transplants are
one of the major applications of stem cell research. Master cells with renewal
properties can restore the function of a damaged or dysfunctional cell. However,
harvesting the master cells is not an easy task. Until recently, stem cells were
collected from bone marrow for the transplants. But the discovery of cell
presence in the <a href="https://www.caricord.com/why-save-your-baby-s-cells"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="baby cord blood">newborn baby cord blood</b></a>
was a major milestone. Blood left in the placenta and umbilical cord after the
child birth contains enormous number of stem cells. Both cord blood and <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-tissue"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="umbilical cord tissue">umbilical cord tissue</b></a> are harvested and
stored for treatments and research purpose. Cord blood contains <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell">hematopoieticstem cells</a> (HSCs), whereas <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="cord tissue">umbilical cord tissue</b> contains <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesenchymal_stem_cell">mesenchymal stem cells</a> (MSCs). Currently <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">newborn baby cord blood</b> is used for
treating more than eighty diseases which includes but are not limited to
leukaemia, inherited blood disorders and inherited metabolic disorders. </span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-GB"><span lang="EN-GB">Stem cells have
the unique ability to differentiate into specialised cell types and can keep on
renewing themselves. Such properties can be exploited to treat a wide range of
diseases. Regenerative medicine research and studies focus on exploiting the
potential of stem cells to reverse diseases. According to the scientists, stem
cells can act as an ultimate body repair kit and holds the promise of
strengthening body’s natural healing abilities. Some of the promising
applications of cord blood banking include the treatment of spinal cord
injuries, cardio vascular diseases, Parkinson’s disease, type I diabetes, genetic
defects and burn victims. </span></span><br />

the placenta and umbilical cord is termed as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cord_blood">cord blood </a>(CB). In addition to
the normal elements of blood such as red blood cells, white blood cells,
platelets and plasma, CB is rich in stem cells (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell">Hematopoietic Stem Cells</a>). Powerful
stem cells can give rise to any tissue or organ cells of the body. Moreover,
these master cells are unspecialised and can be used to replace or repair the tissues
that have been damaged by diseases. Not only the cord blood, but the cord
tissue also contains <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesenchymal_stem_cell">Mesenchymal Stem cells</a> (MSCs) that have afforded promise
in the treatment of medical conditions affecting cartilage, muscle and nerve

have you ever thought how stem cells can treat the cancer conditions? Let us
consider <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphoma">lymphoma</a> as an example. It is a form of cancer that affects the
lymphatic system (Immune system of our body). During the first stage, cancerous
cells in the bone marrow are destroyed through chemotherapy and radiation
procedures. The next step is to transplant the stem cells in bone marrow so
that it can restore the function by producing blood forming cells and tissues
of the body. As we mentioned earlier, cord blood stem cells have self-renewal
properties which makes it a perfect alternative for bone marrow transplant. Moreover,
umbilical cord blood possesses little risk of graft-versus-host disease which
helps it to integrate with the body better. Currently, umbilical cord blood is
used to treat more than 80 diseases including cancers, blood disorders, immune
deficiency conditions and more. So to cut short, <a href="https://www.caricord.com/why-save-your-baby-s-cells"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="baby cord blood banking">baby cord blood banking</b></a> and cord blood donation is a life-saving

<span lang="EN-GB">The field of stem
cell biology has advanced the most over the last decade and the advancing
technologies offer unique promise of regenerative medicine applications. Even
though the embryonic stem cell harvesting and research has been surrounded by
the social controversies, cord blood banking has managed to gain acceptance
worldwide. Umbilical cord blood (CB), as the name indicates, is the blood
present in the umbilical cord and placenta of the new born. According to the
scientific findings, this blood is a rich source of stem cells. If you have
been thinking about the <a href="https://www.caricord.com/why-stem-cell-research-is-being-pursued"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="stem cell banking">significance of stemcell banking</b></a>, then let us explain. Stem cells, also known as master cells possess
self-renewal capability, which means it can act as an internal repair system. Differentiation
and unspecialized nature are some of the unique properties that make stem cells
highly valuable. Until recently, these master cells were harvested from blood
and bone marrow. But with the discovery of stem cell presence in <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">umbilical cord blood tissue</b>,

<span lang="EN-AU">If you are an
expectant parent, then you might be probably busy with a lot of planning such
as meeting the doctor, discussing different health issues, setting up the
nursery, planning the baby shower and more. But have you ever thought about
banking your new-born’s cord blood? Most of us will agree that it is one of the
rarely discussed topics. But having a detailed understanding about the medical
benefits of cord blood (CB) can help you in taking informed decisions regarding
its banking. First of all, let’s find out <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-blood"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="what cord blood">what cord blood is</b></a>. As we all know umbilical cord connects a baby in the womb to
its mother and provides him with oxygen and nutrients. And that is why
umbilical cord is considered as the lifeline of developing embryo or foetus. Soon
after the child birth, this cord is cut and discarded away. But now research
has shown that the blood present in the baby’s cord contains adult stem cells. <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-tissue"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="Umbilical cord blood tissue">Umbilical cord blood tissue</b></a>, being a
rich source of stem cells can be collected and stored for several therapeutical
applications and research purposes. </span><br />

available in clinical trials at this point of time. But according to the
researchers, the future of cord tissue stem cell based therapy looks bright and
promising. Expectant parents who wish to reap the therapeutical benefits of CB
may consider banking it. Those who can’t afford the <b>higher cord blood banking prices </b>can also donate their new-born’s

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-AU">The field of stem
cell research have made significant stride in the recent years and the
discovery of stem cell presence in umbilical cord blood was one of the
remarkable achievements. Have you been thinking <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-blood"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="what exactly cord blood is">what exactly cord blood is</b></a>? Blood left in the umbilical cord and
placenta is termed as the cord blood (CB). Until recently, both the umbilical
cord and placenta were discarded as medical waste right after the child birth.
But during the 1970s, researchers discovered that the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">umbilical cord blood</b> is a rich source of stem cells. Also known as
the master cells, adult stem cells possess remarkable potential to develop into
a complete array of tissue and organ cells of the body. Cord blood contains haematopoietic
stem cells (HSCs) that are responsible for maintaining blood production in our
body. On the other hand, cord tissue contains Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
that have the potential to differentiate into cartilage cells, bone cells and
fat cells. Several clinical trials are underway exploring the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">therapeutical cord tissue benefits</b> and
applications. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU">Currently,
umbilical cord blood is used to treat more than 80 life-threatening diseases.
Some of the major conditions include cancers, blood diseases and immune
deficiency disorders. HSCs present in the <a href="https://www.caricord.com/"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="cord blood">umbilical cord blood</b></a> develop into red cells, white cells and platelets further
restoring the body’s ability to produce blood. Patients with cancerous blood
disorders are treated with chemotherapy or radiation, which reduces the stem
cells in the bone marrow. Cord blood stem cell transplant helps to replace the
damaged blood forming cells with healthy HSCs. Since the collection of cord
blood is easier and probability of complications is slighter, CB transplants
have become a safe and effective alternative to bone marrow stem cell
transplants. On the other hand, researchers continue to investigate the <a href="https://www.caricord.com/what-is-cord-tissue"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;" title="cord tissue benefits">therapeutical cord tissue benefits</b></a>
