没有两个国家对克隆采取相同的管理措施。了解这些监管变化的复杂性至关重要。它突出了与监管一个有争议和快速发展的科学领域相关的挑战，并揭示了能够适应这一现实的监管框架。利用现有的最可靠的信息，我们对世界上30个国家关于克隆胚胎的创造和使用的监管立场进行了调查（见表1）。我们依靠原始和翻译的立法，以及出版的资料和个人通信。本文研究了生殖性克隆和非生殖性克隆的调控机制。虽然所研究的大多数国家都颁布了国家立法，但其中7个国家没有立法不应等同于没有管制。参议员莫林说，最近大多数立法都禁止RC和NRC，这是不正确的。最近的监管举措只有在禁止RC方面是一致的。虽然NRC在17个被调查的国家不被允许，但它可能在多达13个国家被允许。关于克隆法律和政策的各种方法几乎没有达成共识，许多国家的监管立场仍然不确定。
No two countries have adopted identical regulatory measures on cloning. Understanding the complexity of these regulatory variations is essential. It highlights the challenges associated with the regulation of a controversial and rapidly evolving area of science and sheds light on a regulatory framework that can accommodate this reality. Using the most reliable information available, we have performed a survey of the regulatory position of thirty countries around the world regarding the creation and use of cloned embryos (see Table 1). We have relied on original and translated legislation, as well as published sources and personal communications. We have examined the regulation of both reproductive cloning (RC) and non-reproductive cloning (NRC). While most of the countries studied have enacted national legislation, the absence of legislation in seven of these countries should not be equated with the absence of regulation. Senator Morin was not correct in stating that the majority of recent legislation bans both RC and NRC. Recent regulatory moves are united only with regard to the banning of RC. While NRC is not permitted in seventeen of the countries examined, it could be permitted in up to thirteen countries. There is little consensus on the various approaches to cloning laws and policies, and the regulatory position in many countries remains uncertain.
