Bone Marrow (BM) contains hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, which have the potential to self-renew, proliferate, and differentiate into multi-lineage blood cells. Multipotent, non-hematopoietic stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells, can be isolated from human BM as well. These non-hematopoietic, mesenchymal stem cells are capable of both self-renewal and differentiation into bone, cartilage, muscle, tendons, and fat. BM is drawn into a 60cc syringe containing heparin (80 U/mL of BM) from the posterior iliac crest, 25 mL/site, from a maximum of four sites.CustomizationLet us know how we can customize your product today Custom InquiryDonor CriteriaAge18-65 years oldWeight>= 130 lbsScreened before donationHIV (HIV 1 & 2 Ab)HBV (Surface Antigen HbsAg)HCV (HCVAb)Donation FrequencyMinimum 10 weeks between donationsDonors with any of the following will be excluded from donatingPregnancyHistory of heart, lung, liver, or kidney diseaseHistory of asthmaBlood and bleeding disorders including sickle cell diseaseNeurologic disordersAutoimmune disordersCancerDiabetesOther CriteriaMust be in general good healthMust have accessible hipsComplete Blood Count lab test must meet protocol specsRequired to sign procedure-specific consent form
