Cord Blood Banking Guide...

The Daily Mail provides a nice look at cord blood banking. Those interested in learning a bit more about the subject may find it interesting. It certainly doesn't go into detail or provide a great deal information about controversies and new developments, but is a handy overview for the unitiated.

Excerpt:

"What is cord blood banking?

Cord blood banking is when blood is taken from the baby's umbilical cord and stored after birth.

Why is the blood stored?

The blood is a rich source of stem cells, the so-called building blocks of life, which are able to turn into many different types of tissue in the body. They are currently used to treat conditions that would otherwise need transplants from bone marrow donations."
