...even if the procedure turns out to be safe for the embryo, there remains the very real question of what quality stem cells the technique would produce. Some studies suggest that even at the eight-cell stage, when the blastomere, or single cell, is removed, the embryo has already embarked on a development path, and has assigned certain lineages to each of the eight cells; if that's the case, then the stem cells derived from a particular blastomere may already be restricted to becoming just specific types of cells - and may not be useful in generating...
