What you mean by stem cell culture?
The stem cell "culture" is the medium in which the stem cell is able to divide and grow.
What is the use of stem cells an ethical concern?
There was ethical concern over stem cell research because of where they originally collected stem cell from. They first thought that only aborted babies had the stem cells we were looking for, but they're not used anymore.
What are Mesenchymal stem cells used for?
Mesenchymal stem cells are used for regenerative and tissue engineering. More information on the use of stem cells can found on Wikipedia, Regenexx, Euro Stem Cell and many more.

Is stem cell treatment legal in Australia?
Yes. Stem cell therapy is used to treat several conditions.There are currently many stem cell clinical trials underway in Australia.
Is stem cell transplantation used to make a person younger?
No, human stem cell transplants are used for their multipotency (they can become any type of cell). This does not reverse the telomere lost during cell division of other cells, which is typically used to determine biological age and potential longevity. Typically, stem cell transplants are used to combat a specific deficiency in an individual, such as Leukemia.

Why would one want umbilical cord preservation?
Due to the blood left over in the placenta after a baby is born the umbilical cord is cut. Cord blood has been shown to cotain stem cells and early precursor cells that can be dontated and used for stem cell tranplantation for children and adults in need of a stem cell transplant. Not only will this save lives but it will also benefit to the future of mankind as it develops in the race to sustain humans.
What diseases are stem cell technologies used to treat?
Stem cell technologies are being developed to treat many diseases such as Cancers and Parkinsons. They are currently used for bone marrow transplants.
How can stem cells be useful?
Stem cells can be used for many things. The one thing that they are being used for now is treating diseases. A stem cell is a cell in the body with no specific function yet. Scientist are trying to discover a way to get the cell to fight cancer. In the UK stem cells have recently cured a man with HIV AIDS.

What are undifferentiated cells known as?
Hematopoietic stem cells
What conditions are stem cell therapy being used for currently?
Stem cell therapy is used to treat several conditions. It has been used succesfully for years to treat leukemia and related blood/bone cancers through bone marrow transplants. Stem cell potentially has an unlimited number of possibilites. It can potentially be used to cure stroke vctims.
