>>How Big?? <<

You have to judge for yourself....there are many unique benefits that ASTM has over other similar companies trading at multiples 10 even 20 times higher...some features are:

-16 patented procedures
- Dozens of medical papers
- Imminent world wide media coverage
- Drugless! (swifter approval time)

The ability to increase the supply of umbilical cord cells in the laboratory will significantly enhance doctors ability to treat:

* Extremely high-risk leukemia
* Non-Hodgkins lymphoma

And it may eventually prove successful in treating such blood disorders as:

* Sickle cell anemia
* Thalassemia
* Breast cancer
* Other cancers

4 of 10 patients receiving the laboratory-grown umbilical cord cells responded favorably and were currently disease-free.

How many millions of people world wide are afflicted with the above diseases?

What other drugless procedure has a better track record?

>>Like bone marrow, umbilical cord blood contains the ''mother cells'' that can endlessly produce the cells that the body needs to fight disease.<<

Birth giving life. There is something very rich about this. Cells healing cells. No side effects. Seems simple...the best things are!
