Umbilical Cord Blood Preservation

How long can umbilical cord blood be preserved for?

Umbilical cord blood can (theoretically) be stored indefinitely if it is correctly stored in liquid nitrogen at negative 196Degree C. At this temperature, if left undisturbed, will alow most organic cells survive unchanged indefinitely. Although more research into umbilical cord blood preservation along with time will only be the true evidence of how long umbilical cord blood can be preserved for.
