Ethical Reflection Of Synthetic Biology Technology

The world's first artificial biological "Cynthia" marks the biological science ushered in the new prospects of synthetic biology as the birth of artificial biological technology security attention by the society,its development speed is very fast,synthetic biology technology gives the human is not only a hope,also is a kind of thinking.From the perspective of the theory of synthetic biology could help scientists reveals the mysteries of life,provide a new approach for human to explore the origin of life.From the application point of view,synthetic biology technology in new energy,medicine,agriculture,environmental protection,etc,have great potential,and the inexhaustible power for economic and social sustainable development.But there is no denying the fact that synthetic biology technology is a double-edged sword,at the same time of to bring huge benefits to human beings,the development and application of synthetic biology may also be adverse to the human,and even the impact to human ethic order.Research of this paper is divided into five chapters,the first chapter is introduction,mainly introduces the research status at home and abroad and research purpose and meaning.The significance of this paper is based on the reflection of synthetic biology,explore the effective way to solve the problem of synthesis of bioethics,promote the sustainable development of the technology of synthetic biology,let people,between human and nature more harmonious.At the same time introduces the present development situation of synthetic biology technology and its impact.In the second chapter is the core of this article,the main reflection on the problems existing in the synthesis of biotechnology development,first is the issue of security,on the one hand,synthetic biology may cause damage to natural ecological environment,impact on the health of human beings;On the other hand,with the development of synthetic biology,artificial person will also impact after the onset of the current human ethics,affect social stability.Second is the issue of justice,development of synthetic biology technology is based on the abundant resources,manpower,on the basis of the developed countries have huge advantage in this aspect,they can possess and use more resources,it is not fair for some developing countries.In addition,the allocation of benefits and risks are unfair phenomenon.Is the issue of responsibility again,synthetic biology technology to cause environmental pollution,the possibility of social harm exists,but who bear the responsibility is not clear;In addition to ignore the responsibility,we also often ignore the rights of future generations,it is irresponsible for the future.Finally is the issue of economic interests,the development of synthetic biology will make companies and research institutions of the patent competition is more and more fierce,and biological components in what degree can apply for a patent is worth discussing,at the same time,the synthesis of commercialization after will hurt human dignity is controversial.Synthetic biology has many problems,so should stop developing synthetic biology?The third chapter we ethical debate of synthetic biology technologies discussed in this paper,first discuss the concept of biology,synthetic biology technology breakthrough for the concept of biological and life even more vague.Secondly discuss whether it should be development of synthetic biology,here from the viewpoint of "can" and "should".We finally for religious people,naturalist,to reflect on the evolutionist viewpoint,think that these ideas have certain rationality,but there are also obvious.In order to the healthy development of synthetic biology,in this paper,the fourth chapter puts forward the standard four principles of the development of synthetic biology technology.Is a leading and control the principle of combining,scientists first principle is to encourage innovation and creativity,and the control principle is mainly emphasizes people's estimate of the risk and management.Second,favorable principle,development of synthetic biology technology will try to do it is beneficial to people's health,is beneficial to human dignity,is advantageous to the natural ecological environment.Three is a principle of justice,the principle of justice requires that synthetic biology technology to produce the benefits and risks of distributive justice.Four is responsibility principle,the principle of responsibility is the guarantee of science and technology ethics implemented,scientists,government and the public should bear corresponding responsibility.The fifth chapter of synthetic biology technology and prospected its development in the future.First,build system of synthetic biology technology ethics;Second,to promote synthetic biology technology ethics legalization process;Third,guide the synthetic biology sustainable development path.
