The invention relates to a method of efficiently separating embryonic stem cells of poultry. The method comprises the steps: 1) taking out an embryonic disc from a
hatching egg; 2) digesting and cleaning the embryonic disc and removing
yolk of the embryonic disc; 3) conducting
primary culture to the cells of the digested embryonic disc; and 4) enriching and purifying the embryonic stem cells from the cells of the primarily cultured embryonic disc. The method is simple and easy, accurate and effective, high in
repeatability and low in cost, equipment or
reagent in the whole separation and culture
system can be self-made or commercialized, a feeding layer is not prepared,
enzymatic digestion and related
processing are not needed,
blood serum is not required, and about 20 thousand purified embryonic stem cells can be separated and cultured from one
hatching egg, and can be used for
in vitro transfection to conduct
gene modification or apparent modification, thereby compacting the technological base for the transgenic poultry, installing a boost accelerator for development of a
bioreactor and the realization of huge commercialization value, and having great scientific research values and popularization significance.
