Another company with a secret technique.
It would be nice if this technique works out.
Ooplasmic transfer has come up before.

Abstract

There is no abstract for this article. The text below is the first
paragraph of
text within the article.

An alternative method for producing pluripotent stem cells that does not
involve cloning viable embryos, has been presented to a US Senate
committee hearing reports The Blue Sheet (8 August). Ooplasmic transfer,
a procedure described as 'largely theoretical' by its inventors Advanced Cell
Technology ([ACT], Worcester, MA, USA), is the reverse of somatic cell
nuclear transfer. The process could potentially produce undifferentiated
cells that although possessing genes expressed in the embryo, do not
themselves have the structure of an embryo. ACT has a patent application
pending on the methods, and hopes to publish full details and findings
within a year. MJD
