Human Cloning with an emphasis on Reproductive Cloning

Dolly

First mammal Cloned Born in 1996 Cloned using the Rosalin Method

Cloned Food

Identical in Composition to non-cloned food

Do not require labels in the U.S Produced with Reproductive cloning

How dolly was made

Rosalin Method- Transfer DNA from nucleus to unfertilized oocyte

Twinning – splitting of the cell from embryo

Honolulu – same as Rosalin but more efficient due to cells cultured inside organism

Reproductive Cloning

“playing god”

Cloning of Embryos to be used as research for finding new diseases

Is the first step towards Reproductive Cloning

Although more accepted than Reproductive Cloning, laws contradict each other preventing federal funding.
