World Records, Dog Cloning with stem cells

Dog world-for the first time in the world, scientists biotechnology in South Korea have cloned a dog using stem cells. This success has established research cloning in South Korea as the best in the world since have cloned a dog for the first time in the world two years ago.

With this technique, the biotechnology company founded the South Korean cloning expert from Seoul National University have cloned two dogs was small type beagle. They extract stem cells from fat tissue cells of the parent dog's body. The second cloned dog named Magic and Stern was born on Tuesday (27 / 1) from a dog uterus "lift" of the kind of golden retrivier.

Cheaper

Stem cells is already successfully used by U.S. and Japanese scientists to clone other animals such as rats, pigs, and deer. However, only this time successfully used stem cells to clone a dog.

South Korean researchers cloned a dog was known to experts since managed to do in 2005. A dog cloning of the type that is named Snuppy the Afghan hound afghan generated from cells of the body (somatic) taken from the skin of its parent. Cloning a dog classified as difficult because the level of complexity.

Success perform cloning using stem cells is more advanced because stem cells are special cells that can grow into any cell, namely meat, bones, hair, and so on. In addition, the success of this promising increase the success rate of cloning so much cheaper. RNL Bio plans to direct even commercialize the technique.

So far, RNL Bio has opened bookings for cloning dogs using cells of the body (somatic). Chairman of the team of scientists who cloned Lee Byeong-chun, said it had cloned 35 dogs and five wolves over the last three years. One of them is the order of a U.S. woman.
