Abstract
We attempted the isolation and characterization of mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs) from bone marrow (BM) and umbilical cord blood (UBC) in a medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 10% horse serum. In the same conditions i t was possible to isolate MSCs from bone marrow but not from UCB.
