Answer
Blastocysts were used by Evans and Kaufman for stem cell isolation. Blastocysts are early-stage embryos that contain both embryonic stem cells and trophoblast cells. The embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, meaning they have the potential to develop into any type of cell in the body. The trophoblast cells are responsible for forming the placenta.
