How much cord blood should be collected?
The amount of cord blood drawn is normally about 80-90ml, but varies from 30-150ml. Regardless, what matters most is the number of stem cells present in the cord blood. The average number of stem cells collected are usually within the range of 400-900 million nucleated cells.
What happens if the number of cord blood stem cells collected is insufficient / less than the meaningful volume?
Should the number of nucleated cells be less than the standard of 200 million cells, u will be informed and inquired of your decision whether to continue storing cord blood.
