Abstract
Blastomeres were isolated from normally fertilized day3 preimplantation LQ embryos by dissolving of the zona pellucida and were then plated directly onto inactivated human foreskin fibroblasts The subsequent culture was identical to that used to derive a hESC line from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst The established hESC lines were passaged and characterizedTwo hESC lines were produced by culturing the blastomeres individually in a hESC culture system hESCCS Both of the hESC lines maintained a normal 46chromosome XY karyotype expressed stemness markers and showed a pluripotent phenotype including the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers in vitro and in vivo
