JAPAN SET TO LIFT BAN ON BEEF AND MILK FROM CLONED

COWS

Aug. 14/02

Kyodo

 

TOKYO -- The Japanese farm ministry was cited as

saying Tuesday that beef and milk from cows cloned

from the cells of adult animals are safe, signaling

Japan may lift a ban on their consumption in the near

future.

 

The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries

was cited as saying its recent study found cloned

cows' blood, meat and milk nearly identical to those

of naturally born cows and rats fed these substances

developed no irregularities.

 

The announcement, following a similar conclusion by

the health ministry in June 2000, could pave the way

for Japan to become the world's first country to allow

the consumption of cows cloned from the cells of adult

animals.
