Abstract
|
|
|
The human stem cell lines are very important materials of human stem cell research. By providing high quality materials we can facilitate the development of the stem cell research and therapy. Therefore it is essential for researchers wishing to study the human stem cell and improve the cell therapy to gain high quality materials through import and export.
This article deals with the import and export of the human stem cell lines. Many of the sources of human embryonic stem cells are located in countries other than South Korea. So we should establish procedures to help ensure that the import of the human stem cell lines are conducted in an legal manner. At the same time we should develop rules to help ensure that the stem cell research are conducted in an ethical and legal manner. As for the human stem cell research it is a fundamental requirement of using materials that the import and export of human stem cell lines and the human stem cell research should meet the international approved criteria.
In this article, the procedures and rules of three countries (Germany, England, the Unites States) are introduced and compared. By comparing the system of three countries, we hope that we can establish our own system.
