New stem cell source

Scientists have been able to isolate stem cells from amniotic fluid. This opens new doors to stem cells research because the biggest con against it was the fact that stem cell had to be taken from discarded embryo's. In the minds of conners this has some resemblance with murder. With this new way of gaining stem cells research has become some easier to defend.

Don't be too excited though. Gaining stem cells from a pregnant woman with a needle could cause pathogens to enter the womb and the needle wound could fail to heal. Another method is to harvest the fluid when labour is starting.
