    BEIJING, Jan. 8 -- Two cloned cows containing a human gene, which is an important component in breast milk, were born in east China's Shandong Province.

    The cows, which have the lactoferrin gene, were born in an animal research base for gene transfer.

    Experts say the cloned cows will be able to yield nourishing milk because of the gene transfer of human milk.

    They say cloned cattle with the human gene is valuable for scientific purposes and business. Only a few countries can do this cloning, including Britain and Argentina.
