Cell therapy has tremendous potential in regenerative medicine, yet, there are concerns in

methods (Haack-Sorensen et al., 2008; Mannello and Tonti, 2007). Bone marrow derived

clinical applications (Battiwalla and Hematti, 2009; Sadan et al., 2009; Satija et al.,
$ [! X! t( ~( r: e+ k2009). There has been an increased interest in recent years in the potential of oral-. i; N( V0 d+ b/ F- k% `
derived stem cells for cell therapy, primarily because they can be derived from a readily

relative to its use for clinical application.

that consistency between different lots cannot be assured (Price and Gregory, 1982). In

aimed at incorporating FBS alternatives in cell expansion protocols, including the use of ( I3 L) a/ u) Y2 W5 H5 e
