The collection of the biological samples (autologous/allogeneic) for derivation of
MSCs is done in vacutainers or tubes with anticoagulant or media containing anti-
biotics. Depending on the type of sample (e.g., bone marrow or umbilical cord tis-
sue or adipose tissue), the proportion could vary. Collection of biological material
should always be done from accredited, licensed, or authorized medical establish-
ments by a qualifi ed medical specialist.
