Key takeaways
- UC-MSCs come from umbilical cord tissue donated after birth.
- Wharton's Jelly is a specific layer within the umbilical cord.
- Donor screening and lab quality are essential.
- Always ask for documented viability and marker profiles.
Where these cells come from
Both UC-MSCs and Wharton's Jelly MSCs come from healthy donated umbilical cords. Wharton's Jelly refers specifically to the gelatinous connective tissue layer within the cord.
Why source matters
Donor screening, collection consent, and cleanroom processing directly affect quality. A reputable lab will be able to document every step.
Quality documentation
Look for a certificate of analysis covering cell count, viability, sterility, endotoxin testing, and MSC marker verification (CD90, CD73, CD105 positive; CD34, CD45 negative).
Questions to ask
Where is the donor source from? Which lab processes the cells? What viability does my batch show? Is the product fresh or thawed from frozen?
