| | DJHeaf web site articles: The cloning of Dolly the sheep |
 | | As an aside, it should be noted that the recourse that had to be made to mother nature's ways by incubating the embryo in an oviduct is mainly because what is known of the conditions necessary for sheep embryo culture lags far behind that of human or mouse. | | | During March it was announced from a fertility clinic in Belgium that doctors had 'accidentally' triggered a natural twinning reaction by rubbing the surface of a fertilised human ovum with a glass rod. | | | Confronted by these figures, we can marvel at the patience of the biotechnologists who did the work yet at the same time be struck by how much death was needed to purchase a small amount of life. |

| | Dolly the sheep - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The technique that was made famous by her birth is somatic cell nuclear transfer, in which a cell is placed in a de-nucleated ovum, the two cells fuse and then develop into an embryo. | | | The goal of the research was the reliable reproduction of animals genetically modified to produce therapeutic proteins in their milk. | | | The arthritis further fueled worry among some that this form of cloning may not be appropriate for mammals, and there is now a consensus both in- and outside scientific community that at this point the risk of unforeseen effects of cloning on the clone makes experiments in human reproductive cloning premature and unethical. |
