DOWNLOAD HERE: newsdirect.nma.com.tw US scientists have succeeded in producing embryonic stem cells using a new cloning technique. They injected genetic material from a diabetic patient's skin cell into a donor egg, and stimulated it to develop enough so stem cells could be extracted. The result is stem cells with 69 chromosomes - one set of 23 more than a normal human's 46 - meaning they cannot be used for cell replacement therapy yet.
