    There’s no indication that the referenced work was done on embryos or fetal tissue of any kind. The stem cell model they used (RepliGut from Altis) is both advertised and sold over the internet, which would be illegal in some jurisdictions. The cells in the kit are billed as donor-derived intestinal epithelial cells, which do not come from embryos. Altis works with ethically procured donated organs.
