Biotechnology Revolutions allowing: Production of large quantities of growth factors Cellular & Molecular Therapy Separation of specific cells Production of large numbers of human cells outside the body Modification of cell properties, e g by inserting genes into cells Progress in Stem Cell Biology and Genome Sciences The next 0 years should be a very exciting period in the development of this field. SCA 200, Seoul 5 However, there remain scientific, clinical, and regulatory hurdles/problems to be overcome. Low cell recovery, High cost and hard labor, Lack of common methodology, Low utilization rate, Financial difficulties, etc. Our major issues have been on how to organize, to regulate and to practice the on-demand exchange system, so that they can bring the full potential benefits of cell therapy to patients.
