What is the value prop for extracting and storing stem cells now vs. extracting them later? Is it just that you’ll have to extract less bone marrow now vs later? Isn’t there a decline in quality and quantity of viable stem cells when they’re stored?
There's actually a significant decline in quality and quantity that continues with age. That's why we cryopreserve them. If brought down to liquid nitrogen temp properly, they can remain viable nearly indefinitely.
