[DIYbio] Re: Extract egg cells from "monthly" ? Possible? Ethical?

Yeah, um, no.

An offer to freeze strangers' tampons or whatever for $500 does not constitute a valid scientific claim. 
Some hints from the website:

>Unfortunately we're short of strict scientific details

uh huh.

>I guess the professional jargon would rather call those cells stromal cells as they are not adult stem
>cells in the sense of being in the adult organism throughout the life and retaining some renewing capacity.

Sorry, not the same thing.

What a very odd business model.
Mega, since you have an interest in eggs and stem cells, you may want to familiarize yourself with the procedures that are normally used.
