ISNA
12-Jul-2009 (8 comments)

TEHRAN (ISNA)-Iran's first cloned calf "Boniana" was born in Isfahan's Royan research center Saturday afternoon.

The manager of Royan, Mohammad Hossein Nasr Isfahani told ISNA the birth of the calf came up as a result of researches on IVF, cloning and genetic engineering which began 6 years ago, the same process that led to birth of "Hana" the first Iranian cloned goat in mid-April

This is the first successful birth of a cloned calf in the Middle East putting Iran in the list of countries able to produce farm animals.

Boniana was born after production of 2000 cloned embryos and transfer of 300 embryos to 100 cows in 2 years.

The calf was born after a gestation of 270 days by caesarean.

Royan is hopeful to announce the birth of second cloned calf of Iran in a few days.

Royan has already cloned a lamb, called Royana, as its first successful cloning project.

Ohhhhh, wgm

grow up.  Once you surpass adolescence, you will realize that calling men "Ms." or "Mrs." is not an insult. 

Actually, if you are older than 12, this just shows your backward frame of mind when you use the female gender as an insult....but then again, what can one expect from a person who supports a sexist regime like the IRI.

Shame on you.

Mina Dadvar,

Obviously you are an evidence that we cannot de-clone the anti-iran parasites. Otherwise, why on this forum should an inocent discussion and exchange of idea and views  boil down to name calling and the sort of discussion that can only be imagined to occur among bunch of idiots?

What amazes me (and I am sure many others on this forum) is that you and the like of you are the so called "opposition" to mollahs. One would probably say, what we have is what we deserve.  We have no better alternative at this time.

Thanks for paying attention.

Declone

by minadadvar on

Unfortunately, we have not been able to declone the Anti-Iranian Parasites on this web.

Proof ?  The presence of creatures like you, jaleho and  shah of all IRI gollams (shah ghollam).

Mrs. Kashani 

First, you should not put my name (WGM) and "Shah" a former traitor to my motherland  in the same sentence.

Second, congratulations, you appear to have too many powerful "friends" in "high" places.

 

Thanks.

Wgm1919 and Shah Gholam.

 

You guys called for me, hey I’m here! Until you perpetuate IRI propaganda, I will be here and going nowhere, rest assured! I enjoy nothing more than exposing IRI propaganda and whoever delivers it!

 

Join the people of Iran and you will be spared!
