Abstract

The question arises regarding the Public Health Services, if they should collaborate, at the time of the child's birth, with private companies so that the conservation of the umbilical cord blood is feasible, even if the custody centers are located located abroad. The ownership of the blood and tissues of the umbilical cord, the duties of the parents and also of the Administration in these circumstances are reasoned.
