The Korean native pig (KNP) have been considered as animal models for animal
biotechnology research because of their relatively small body size and their presumably …

The objective of this work was to obtain cloned pig offspring by uterine transfer of blastocysts
produced by zona-free manipulation. We started by defining the most suitable culture media …

In this study, the developmental ability of cloned embryos using gilt versus sow oocytes was
evaluated under the hypothesis that the efficiency of nuclear transfer using gilt oocytes was …

Dairy goats are ideal for the transgenic production of therapeutic recombinant proteins. The
use of recombinant somatic cell lines for nuclear transfer (NT) allows the introduction of …

TWO TECHNICAL FACTORS appear to be critical to the success of rabbit cloning: timing of
activation of the recipient oocyte (Collas and Robl, 1990) and synchronization of the …

Among the ARTs that are applied in goat farming industry, reproductive cloning technology
in production of cloned goat embryos are foreseen to facilitate the effort of mass goat …

Genetically modified domestic animals have many potential applications ranging from basic
research to production agriculture. One of the goals in transgenic animal production …

Since the announcement of the birth of the first cloned mammal in 1997, Dolly the sheep, 24
animal species including laboratory, farm, and wild animals have been cloned. The …

Over the past six years, hundreds of apparently normal calves have been cloned worldwide
from bovine somatic donor cells. However, these surviving animals represent less than 5 …

Somatic cell nuclear transfer (scNT) is a useful way to create cloned animals. However,
scNT clones exhibit high levels of phenotypic instability. This instability may be due to …
