Abstract

Knowledge is always positive, but its application can not be so. The practice with Knowledges and techniques that can affect essential aspects of the beings must be guided by perfectly established rules. The World Committee on Bioethics elaborate the Universal Declaration on the Human Genome and Human Rights in November of 1997 with the support of all the countries of the world, with no exception, and of all the scientific communities it was established that human cloning can not be used with reproductive purposes. It is very important to make an adequate use of the terminology. Scientists must use a precise language and some groups must be careful before making a pronouncement about specific subjects outside their preparation.

Taskforce 9: the application of preimplantation genetic diagnosis for human leukocyte antigen typing of embryos.

This 9th statement of the ESHRE Taskforce on Ethics and Law considers ethical questions and specific dilemmas concerning preimplantation genetic diagnosis for human leukocyte antigen typing of embryos. This application is particularly complex because the interests of the sick child needing a transplantation should be balanced against the interests of the future donor child who may result from the technique. It is concluded that, if parents intend to love the child, the creation and use as a donor is not inherently disrespectful.
