A Japanese research team says it has successfully produced cloned mice from a drop of blood.
The researchers at the RIKEN center in Tsukuba City, north of Tokyo, extracted white blood cells from a drop of blood taken from a mouse.
The cloned mice have the same genetic information that is found in the cells.
The researchers produced the clones by extracting a type of white blood cell called a non-lymphocytic cell.
The group says it has developed a technique to extract the cell with an accuracy of 85 percent.
The team hopes the study will lead to technology that can increase the population of endangered species.
Team leader Atsuo Ogura said nobody had ever thought that white blood cells could be used in cloning. He added he believes the technique can be applied to other animals.

Personally all I want is the first clone of Shinozaki Ai. I mean, what am I going to do with another mouse?
