Biotechnological bases of the development of cloned pig embryos by A. V. Lopukhov, G. N. Singina, N. A. Zinovieva

“…When removing the nucleus of pig oocytes maturated in vitro, it is necessary to pay attention to the problem of preserving the viability of cells, which were devoid of their own nuclear material. To perform the reconstruction, a somatic cell is placed, using micro-tools, in the perivitelline space, where the first polar body was previously located, or in the cytoplasm of an enucleated oocyte. …”
