    Abstract: Meat products normally contain low omega-3 fatty acids and high ratio of n-6/n-3 fatty acids may contribute to the prevalence of many diseases. In order to obtained in such beef with high levels of omega-3 fatty acids will be more healthy to meet people&#146;s diet, researchers generated the fat-1 transgenic simmental crossbred cattle expressing the <I>Caenorhabditis elegans c fat-1</I> gene encoding an omega-3 fatty acid desaturase that converts omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids and the gene is absent in mammals. In this study, researchers successful product the embryo of fat-1 transgenic simmental crossbred cattle using OSM. The results of Western Blotting and fluoroscopic examination have proved that the <I>fat-1</I> gene has been into genome of clone embryo and translated into proteins which could be used to embryo transfer.
