Investigation on volume of cord blood

ABSTRACT

At the first step of studying about “the volume of cord blood” in Vietnamse, a total of 50 samples have been collected. We obtained some results: - The mean volume of cord blood was 50.06 +/- 20,73ml. -The mean number of total mononuclear cells was 352.4 +/- 161.6 (x106). -Some cord blood colections had many total MNC as some larger cord blood harvests. So, it is our belief that total MNC numbers are more useful indicator of clinical utility than more sample volume.
