[The outlook for the creation of a bank of cryopreserved cord blood for clinical use]. / Perspektiva sozdaniia banka kriokonservirovannoi kordovoi krovi dlia klinicheskogo primeneniia.

Appraisal of morphological and functional features of cord blood cells involving identification of precursor cells marked with specific monoclonal antibodies makes it possible to regard cord blood as biologically valuable hemopoietic tissue with a high repopulation potential. Studies aimed at developing optimal conditions of cryopreservation allow the stocks of biologically valuable tissue to be built up.
