Journal Title: Indian Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Biotechnology - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
The emerging medical science coupled with biotechnological innovations is paving way for an exciting science – stem cell research. The researchers in the area of stem cell banking are exploiting the factual impending market worldwide. The possible clinical application of stem cells has generated great curiosity amongst medical professionals and general public. No only this, but stem cell research can be used for the treatment of widespread diseases like diabetes, Parkinson's disease, severe aplastic anemia, leukeamias, etc. The present article highlights the historical perspective about the stem cell banking along with an overview of global scenario of stem cell banking in the private and public sectors.
