It is the baby\u2019s blood, which does not mix with the mother\u2019s blood, and it contains, among other things, various types of stem cells, of which the most important at present are the so-called hematopoietic stem cells and blood cell progenitors. Umbilical cord blood can be collected at birth, processed, and stored long-term for later use in the treatment and regeneration of the child. The umbilical cord tissue itself is also important, as it can likewise be stored for use in regenerative medicine.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>What is umbilical cord tissue?<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Umbilical cord tissue is essentially a part of your baby\u2019s umbilical cord. The umbilical cord connects the placenta with the baby and enables the transport of blood from the placenta to the fetus and back. After birth, the cord is clamped (tied) and cut, permanently separating the baby from the mother. At this stage, it is possible to collect umbilical cord tissue (and umbilical cord blood). The remaining umbilical cord stays attached to the placenta and, after delivery of the placenta, is usually discarded.  <\/p>\n<p>The umbilical cord has a diameter of 1\u20132 cm and can reach a length of up to 55 cm. It consists of outer membranes and an inner jelly-like substance called Wharton\u2019s jelly, which is rich in mesenchymal stem cells. These cells have significant regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>The best choice is to preserve both<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Umbilical cord tissue and cord blood complement each other \u2013 for example, cord blood is used in experimental treatments of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, cerebral palsy, diabetes, and various anemias, while cells from umbilical cord tissue are used in the treatment of various neurological diseases, spinal cord injuries, severe pneumonia, cardiovascular diseases, and others.<\/p>\n                                    <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/section>\r\n    \n\n    <!-- ACCORD -->\r\n    <section\r\n            class=\"pdt-40 pdb-40 bg3\"\r\n        >\r\n        <div class=\"wrapper2 anim_delay anim_drop1 observe\">\r\n                                                    <div class=\"accord mgt-30\">\r\n                                            <!-- ITEM -->\r\n                        <div class=\"item_accord item\">\r\n                            <a href=\"#\" role=\"button\" class=\"item_accord_head head\">\r\n                                <h3 class=\"item_accord_title\">How to proceed if you want to preserve umbilical cord blood at birth?<\/h3>\r\n                                <div class=\"item_accord_arrow\">\r\n                                    <svg class=\"sicofill\">\r\n                                        <use href=\"https:\/\/apolinar.eu\/wp-content\/themes\/apolinar\/assets\/layout\/icons.svg#s_ar2_d\"\/>\r\n                                    <\/svg>\r\n                                <\/div>\r\n                            <\/a>\r\n                            <div class=\"expand\">\r\n                                <div class=\"item_accord_inner page_content reset_margins\">\r\n                                                                                                                                                        <ul>\n<li>Simply call the National Umbilical Cord Blood Center hotline at 736 50 414 and complete a non-binding registration for collection by phone.

The collection is safe and painless, performed after birth when the baby is already with the mother. It can be done for all types of births and can even be done during normal delayed cord clamping (up to 60 seconds).<\/li>\n<li>At the laboratories of the National Umbilical Cord Blood Center, quality control will be performed, and the blood and\/or tissue will be processed and prepared for storage.<\/li>\n<li>Approximately 5\u20136 weeks after collection, you will receive a certificate of processing and storage by mail, along with a summary of information and results. Subsequently, you will receive an invoice by email for collection, testing, processing, and storage.<\/li>\n<li>The collected blood and tissue are stored in a cryogenic biological sample repository in liquid nitrogen containers at -196 \u00b0C. Biologic material stored this way can maintain its quality for decades. If needed, the stored transplant will be immediately ready for treatment, which can take place anywhere in the world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                            <\/div>\r\n                        <\/div>\r\n                                            <!-- ITEM -->\r\n                        <div class=\"item_accord item\">\r\n                            <a href=\"#\" role=\"button\" class=\"item_accord_head head\">\r\n                                <h3 class=\"item_accord_title\">Umbilical cord blood and tissue in clinical studies<\/h3>\r\n                                <div class=\"item_accord_arrow\">\r\n                                    <svg class=\"sicofill\">\r\n                                        <use href=\"https:\/\/apolinar.eu\/wp-content\/themes\/apolinar\/assets\/layout\/icons.svg#s_ar2_d\"\/>\r\n                                    <\/svg>\r\n                                <\/div>\r\n                            <\/a>\r\n                            <div class=\"expand\">\r\n                                <div class=\"item_accord_inner page_content reset_margins\">\r\n                                                                                                                                                        <div>\n<p>The application of umbilical cord blood is now available in the Czech Republic and other European countries.
