Human Cloning Foundation The official site in support of human cloning!

You can can now purchase a DNA kit for the storage of hair DNA from Southern Cross Genetics at their location in Australia. Southern Cross Genetics (SCG) is an institution established for the storage of human DNA. While some countries have banned the use of DNA for the purpose of cloning body organs or the cloning of a human, the Australian government has not regulated cloning. SCG is storing hair, saliva, or blood samples.
There are many reasons why DNA storage may be valuable to you:
Hair:
After making your payment and receiving a plastic container and mail
back address sticker, you will begin to collect hair specimens. The
hairs can be obtained by combing your hair (with a clean comb) and placing
them in the storage container. If you chose to collect hairs by combing,
you may need to do so over several days or even over two weeks. Usually
one or two hairs come out with each combing. Be sure that the root,
or follicle, is intact at the end of the hair. The root will look
like a tiny white bulb at the base of the hair. It may be helpful
to look at each hair with a magnifying glass. The DNA is in the root,
the strand itself does not contain DNA. You need to collect 6 to
8 hairs before sending the kit back in. You can also pluck the hairs
if they do not come out with combing.
If you fill out the form below and include a payment of $50.00 AUSTRALIAN per sample. You can order the kit from any country of the world by using the currency converter link here: currency conversions, which is at http://quote.yahoo.com/m3.
Once the hair samples are received by Southern Cross Genetics they will undergo a cleaning process. Two strands will be used to do DNA blue printing. Then the rest of the hair samples will be placed in to a special formulated liquid that Southern Cross Genetics has developed for DNA storage. This storage process is Patent Pending and the formula is owned by the research team at Southern Cross Genetics. All samples will be stored for a minimum of 25 years.
Each person providing a sample will receive a reference number and at
all times they will have complete control and ownership over their sample
that is in storage at Southern Cross Genetics.
The nonprofit Human Cloning Foundation may receive a small royalty
from each kit sold if there is enough volume to sustain this venture.
Be sure to mention the Human Cloning Foundation in your communications
with SCG.

Disclaimer: It is not currently know if the DNA from stored hair
can be used for future human cloning, although the possibility exits.
What is know is that stored DNA can be used for identification and for
genetic testing.
