Summary/Abstract: There are a number of concerns of scientists about cloning, organ transplants or euthanasia, but the use of scientific procedures should be in accordance with the requirements of ethics, so as not to affect humanity as a whole and the fundamental human rights and, therefore, more relevant international instruments relate to ensuring equality of all human beings and the need to protect the species. However, such processes have generated widespread controversy in legal doctrine, but also at the level of personalities from the cultural and political area.
