As the basic prerogative for stem cell research, a public umbilical cord blood bank (UCB) is essential. The aim of our research was to analyse CB units donated to the Slovenian public cord blood bank. Of donated CB units, 46 % contained more than 750 X 10E6 nucleated cells and fulfilled the international criteria for CB storage in our bank.

Acute leukemia is a typical disease that can be succesfully treated with the transplantation of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cells. Since the 1989, this kind of tretment is performed in Slovenia. The expertizr from this haematological field contributes a major part to the biology of stem cells and consequently, to the cellular therapies.
