## Abstract Fetal spleen stem cells have growth characteristics similar to those of normal adult spleen stem cells. On the contrary there is an early fetal liver stem cell population which possesses a lag time longer than that of adult stem cells. The duration of the lag time is controlled by a bui
The probability of a colony which originated as a single stem cell to become extinct due to differentiation of all of its stem cells in any generation is closely connected to stem cell self renewal probability p . p can be determined from the coefficient of variation of the colony numbers received b
The stem cell concept continues to be very useful both for studies on cellular differentiation and for studies on neoplasia. At present the concept is being enlarged to include consideration of a new aspect: stem cell genetics, at
Differentiation and proliferation of almost all hemopoietic cell lines can now be studied in vitro. Cloning techniques and suspension cultures allow the study of proliferation of the multipotential hemopoietic progenitor cell and the committed progenitors for granulocytes, macrophages, eosinophils,
