Oh, Antinori? As far as I remember, the mainstream medical community is/was extremely skeptical about his claims.
Also, he was a pure clonist. His idea was to inject the father's genetic material unmodified. It's not the same thing as having genetic children of two gay people.
Why would the medical community come into play? Physicians dont have sufficient background in embryology or genetics to make an opinion.
The scientific community, yes they were skeptical, not whether the procedure
could be done or not, but of the
life expectancy. Two huge different factors. I attended Ian Wilmuts lecture on cloning and engineering in 2001 @ UC Irvine. He even said any mammalian DNA could be injected into an ovum. Using a similar procedure of running a electrical current. The problem he stated was that the more complex the genome the less likely the offspring would survive. The procedure has been done on mice and published.
So like i said on the prior page. Did he do it, i think and most do think he did. Would he publish his results, most likely not, because of what is currently known on life expectancy of the offspring. Did the women give birth is another question? I was just stating u can fertilize the host sucessfully.
he wasn't a pure clonist. He had numerous publications regarding haploidization.
