title: [Detection of genetic materials in mammalian somatic cell cloning].
abstract: Following the production of cloned sheep, mice, goats, pigs, cats, rabbits and argali from somatic cells, the cellular and molecular biological tests of cloned animals and early embryos turn to be more important. In this review, chromosome analysis, nuclear DNA analysis, mitochondrial DNA analysis and telomeric DNA analysis that are applied in the detection of cloned mammal and early embryos are described.
