While the donor is being bandaged and treated, the cells are being filtered out. The donor is bandaged up and suffers from a sore hip for a few days, but is given medicines to relieve the pain.

Stem cells come from an embryonic stage in a pregnancy because at the embryonic stage the fetus cells are not yet developed so taking cells from it allows us to put in needed areas. You can Particularly use the blastocyst (human embron) stage to get certain cells called pluripotent, which has the possibility to become any human cells]]> 2016-09-13 01:12:37 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123319389 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123334459 Some cell types are Embryonic stem cells which are taken from a embryon early on. Hematopoletie stem cell which makes all different types of blood cells and it is extracted from bone marrow and a umbilical cord, it could be used for bone marrow transplants and diseases such as luekemia. Also there is the adult cells, the adult cell can be found throughout the body. It is used for many organs such as the heart brain liver stomach and many more.]]> 2016-09-13 03:44:21 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123334459 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123337809 Stem cells are identified in two ways, the first way being "self- renew" and the second way is "they can develop into specialized cells." Also there is no specific number of stem cells in your body they very as you get older and continue to grow.]]> 2016-09-13 04:26:32 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123337809 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123339671 2016-09-13 04:59:55 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123339671 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123340055 Pros for Stems Cells include recycling, and using an aborted embryo for science and testing what can and cannot work for humans. If you're pro stem cells, then a counter argument to the "inhumane" side would be that they think it is not equivalent to a human life. Also, the donation of aborted embryos being donated to science and research is beneficial to test all kinds of different hypotheses. Cons of stem cells would be simply because it is inhuman and devaluing life. It also brings up the insufficiency of the embryos because of potential diseases which makes it not a promising theory for the upcoming future.]]> 2016-09-13 05:06:53 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123340055 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123348646 As many dive into the vast ideas and uses of stem cells in animals, questions began to come out about letting plant stem cells attempt to heal different aspects of animals and to keep the already existing cons, such as the 'inhumainty ' stem cell research has been given by many people ever since the technology for it has came into fruition. Unfortunately, since they are two different breeds of the same idea, they cannot be conjoined with another, but rather are adjacent pairs that are close, but not close enough to be able to conduct enough to heal animals and humans]]> 2016-09-13 06:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123348646 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123359891  In the 19th century many discoverment's were made about stem cells. In 1978 is when stem cells were discovered in a human cord blood and from 1981 to 1988 is when they started doing animal stem cell experiments. in the year of 1997, they experimented on lambs for the first time using their stem cells. In another study that they had experimented showed that they found a stem cell showing the possiblity of cancer on it.]]> 2016-09-13 08:09:00 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123359891 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123363316 In California the normal cost for a stem cell research ing or treatment is estimated to be around $512,000 for each stem cell that they want to get teated for. In the US the approximate cost for every patient is about $10,000 per treatment. Insurance does not cover for these types of treatments because of safety issues. Many things can change the type of cost it will like for example depending on the type of stem cell you are getting treated or where you go get it done (in the U.S or out of the U.S). It is not difficult to find stem cell research centers since there can be medical research centers all around the world that can help you. The only hard part is finding donors that are willing to donate certain stem cells since they are a big part of your body.]]> 2016-09-13 08:31:33 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123363316 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123366771 There has been many new discoverments about stem cells. Some of the new advancements they have made on stem cells were that , in the University South Wales in Australia they believe that they found a potential cure of renewing damaged human tissue, that was most likely caused by injury, disease, or the process of growing old.]]> 2016-09-13 08:50:26 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123366771 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123963277 Taken from human embryos; commonly from fertility clinics who are left over from assisted reproduction attempts. In order to take cells from living human embryos, harvesting the cells means destruction of the embryos. It's a sensitive and controversial topic, many scientists believe that through enough research, a cure for  Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, heart disease, and diabetes can be obtained from stem cells [though not necessarily embryonic ones]. ]]> 2016-09-15 05:01:57 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123963277 https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123963749 After processing, the stem cells are frozen. Until the cells are needed for infusion, they are stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen. The time spent stored is typically just weeks to months, but if ever necessary stem cells can be stored for as long as ten years.  ]]> 2016-09-15 05:11:12 UTC https://padlet.com/greenenglish/6Bstemcell/wish/123963749
