I am extracting Wharton's Jelly MSCs from donated umbilical chords with periodic microbial contamination issues. I find the antibiotics associated with many kits and media designed for this procedure are good, but not great. Understandably, vaginal births are more problematic than C-sections.

I would appreciate any recommendations of techniques applied to the decontamination of umbilical chords for better MSC isolation.

Thank you.
