Abstract
Nowadays, cord blood cells have a huge demand in medicine. The reason under this is that it can transform to every cell type. By that, it is possible to cure unhealthy and disordered cells in human body. This is basically called a cell therapy. Cord blood is not only a rich source for hematopoietic stem cells that give rise to different types of blood cells (hematogenic stem cells) but also for mesenchymal cells which produce cell types from other tissues – e.g. nerve, bone, muscle tissue including heart muscle cells. Basically, stem cells are important for lots of treatments. For understanding the importance of the stem cells, a total of 40 females were recruited with the same age intervals of 20-35 in this experiment. Cord blood cells have been taken with the Cord Blood Collection Procedure and the number of the stem cells have been calculated with the Colony-Forming Unit Assay Procedure. This experiment evaluates the effect of time on the number of stem cell colonies, which have been taken at birth from cord blood cells. Personally, I’ve always been interested in stem cells because of their magnificent and complicated structure. I wondered, what if we wanted to utilize the number of the useful stem cell colonies, which time interval is the best for them to form as much as colonies they can. Because of that, my research question is “How does the time affect the number of the useful stem cell colonies in cord blood?”
