Effects of obstetric factors and storage temperatures on the yield of endothelial colony forming cells from umbilical cord blood.

As umbilical cord blood (UCB) is a rich source of endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFC), our aim was twofold: (1) to examine potential obstetric selection criteria for achieving the highest ECFC yields from UCB units, and (2) to determine whether transient storage temperatures of fresh UCB and cry...
