Female mice receiving oral administration of the insecticide lindane either before or immediately after mating increased blastomere lysis and suppressed cell proliferation of two-cell embryos and morulae (Scascitelli and Pacchierotti 2003). Essentially such research would be utilizing cells that in fact represent what is common to humans in the most basic sense; our common human nature in the blastomere is preindividual and prepersonal.
