“…Often the popular press chooses to emphasize the most socially disturbing aspects of these cases, predicting the advent of genetic engineering (Robertson 1987;Singer and Wells 1984) or establishment of a "breeder class" of minority women carrying children for the affluent (Nsiah-Jefferson 1988; Rifkin 1988).2 However, beneath this rhetoric lies a more basic, core question of relevance to consumer policy: Are there aspects of human life that should not be subject to commercial exchange?…”

“…Many voices in the medical (Robertson 1987), legal (Andrews 1988; Taub 1988), judicial (Siege1 1988), and political (Edwards 1988) arenas have put forward ideological statements regarding these questions; yet the business community and consumer policy-makers have been largely silent. In the absence of normative guidance from policy-makers, entrepreneurs have entered the field of commercial reproductive technology with few or no standards for evaluating performance or practices.…”

“…To date, more than two dozen babies have been born through this technique (Breu and Feldinger 1986). The additional consumer policy issue cryopreservation raises, of course, is what rights, if any, do embryos have and whose property are they (Robertson 1987)? In other words, are frozen embryos people or possessions (Jolidon 1989;Seligmann 1989)?…”

This paper proposes the presence of a sacred/profane continuum along which marketing exchanges may be made. The functioning of this continuum is illustrated through the examination of novel reproductive markets, e.g. surrogate mothers, in vitro fertilization, that “mix” aspects of sacred and profane exchange, resulting in anxiety and confusion for market participants and society as a whole. Some ethical guidelines for governing such mixed markets are suggested.

Abstract. The application of assisted reproductive technology brought children to many families. However, limited by the complexity, particularity and limitations of assisted reproductive technology inherent, assisted reproductive technology benefits millions of infertile family, and at the same time causes a huge impact on traditional ethics. With the continuous development of biological science and technology, new ethical problems will rise. The continuous development of biological science and technology develop consistent challenges about extremity of the existing ethics and believes. On the basis of theoretical study, the literature and the empirical research, the purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of application of the patients' informed consent in assisted reproductive technology. In view of the present effect of patients' informed consent and the absence of evaluation mechanism, we try to do some beneficial attempt and to do verification work on patients' psychological impact by informed consent.

“…En un principio, han sido criopreservadas células troncales embrionarias incluyendo ratón 181 , cerdo 182 , humanos y primates 183 , utilizando dimetilsulfóxido (DMSO) como principal crioprotector. El DMSO suele utilizarse a concentraciones de 10% y con frecuencia combinado con suero fetal bovino a diferentes concentraciones.…”
