| Summary: |
A thorough tutorial on perinatal stem cells, including stem cells harvested from the amniotic fluid, placenta, maternal blood supply, umbilical cord and Wharton's Jelly. Coverage includes the underlying biology of each of the sources of pregnancy related stem cells, cell culture, potential therapeutic uses, insights on the impact of these stem cells from obstetricians and gynecologists, cardiologists, hematologists and tissue engineers, and cord blood bankers. This will be the seminal volume in an emerging field. Normally discarded as medical waste, perinatal stem cells are an incredible sourc. |
