The Miracle Of Modern Science: A Senile Cell Gives Rise To Sheep Sucklings

A mutiny has been caused by the unearthing of a major element in the history of genetics. The “land of the sunburnt”, better known as Australia, has done an amazing discovery, the discovery of a time capsule from the ‘scientific treasures’ dating back to the 20th century. A decade X 5 was the time of its conservation, precisely, has created a lineage of sheep.

The semen of several Ram sheep was frozen in 1968 by Dr Steve Salomon, a researcher from the University of Sydney.

After a series of tests which were conducted to test the fertilizing ability of the sperms, to their surprise, these still had the viability to fertilize and hence, the last step of this experiment, which could make this experiment a success or a failure, was conducted.

As per the requirements of the last step, they were artificially inseminated into 56 Marino Ewes and Lo breeds out of which, 34 of them became pregnant and produced healthy offspring.

The information generated today will become the knowledge of tomorrow. And remarkably, the discovery of the fact that older ones have higher fertilizing capacity which amounts to 61 percent as compared to the recently frozen 12 months old sheep cells whose fertilizing ability is 59 percent is now, a major part of the general knowledge of tomorrow.

On articulating their thoughts, researchers said that this experiment has helped them to appraise the progress in the study of animal genetics in terms of selective breeding process.

Let us hope that the scientists continue with their incredible researches and present to the world the amazing inventions which would make his world a better place to live in.
