When I first learned the term SCNT from a class, it was presented to me as strictly denoting the act of removing a nucleus from a somatic cell and placing it inside another, enucleated cell (not necessarily an oocyte).

Procedures such as SCNT must not be allowed to be buried in the ashes of the Korean fallout.
-
Though the paper "shows that interspecies SCNT is a bust," he said, there are still "substantial differences" between fully-human cloned and IVF embryos.
-
The Coleman-Isakson bill is a Trojan Horse bill which will kill any federal funding for human embryonic stem cell research utilizing excess IVF embryos or any funding for the derivation of stem cell lines utilizing SCNT technology.
-
The investigating panel at South Korea's Seoul National University (SNU) has just issued its final report: The reviewers demonstrated, conclusively, that the 11 patient-derived stem cell lines using the technique of SCNT (somatic cell nuclear transfer) reported in the May, 2005 issue of Science (308: 1777-1783) were all fakes.
-
FACT: Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT) is the method used to create the cloned-sheep Dolly.
-
As well, Hwang's 2004 claim, also published in the same elite journal of Science (303: 1669-1674), of being the first in the world to derive embryonic stem cells from an engineered cell mass using SCNT, was also a fake.
-
It is a poison pill not only to hESC research, but to SCNT (somatic cell nuclear transfer).
-
The only other source of hESC's was thought to be through the technically demanding procedure of SCNT in which a patient-specific, genetically identical line of hESC's is derived by placing the 46-chromosome nucleus of the patient into the cytoplasm of an unfertilized, donated ovum whose nucleus has been removed.

And that's what had millions of Americans cheering, Americans who could have potentially benefited from SCNT.
