The invention discloses a microelement composition having activating function on stem cells and application thereof. The composition is prepared from 0.1-2 mmol of iron, 1-10 micromoles of copper, 1-20 micromoles of zinc, 5-100 micromoles of cobalt, 5-50 micromoles of manganese, 1-10 micromoles of chromium, 1-10 nmol of selenium, 0.1-50 micromoles of iodine, 0.1-10 micromoles of nickel, 0.1-10 micromoles of molybdenum, 0.1-5 micromoles of vanadium, 1-10 nmol of tin, 1-30 mmol of silicon, 5-50 micromoles of strontium, 0.1-10 micromoles of boron, 5-100 micromoles of rubidium, 1-50 micromoles of lithium, 10-100 nmol of germanium, 1-10 mmol of titanium and 1-300 micromoles of tungsten. The microelement composition having the activating function on the stem cells is provided and applied to activation culture of the stem cells. Experiment results find that the microelement composition has the functions of promoting proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells in vitro and does not influence the differentiation potential of the mesenchymal stem cells, and besides microelements have the functions of promoting activation and proliferation of stem cells in mammal bodies like mice.
