Ethics
We learnt, because of our interview with Dr. Suárez, that every single scientific project carries ethical issues which have to be taken into account by the researchres ad by all involved people. Off course, our project is not an exception, so we had to analyze these issues.
Fortunately we can say that our project does not involve serious ethical issues, this because of the following reasons:
• We did not work directly with V. cholerae or with any other pathogen organism. All the organisms involved in our project were bacteria (no mammal cells).
• Our final product (an easy-use kit) is meant to be used in laboratories, industries and universities; that means, it will be used by trained people. Our product will be easy-disposable and wont got to have directly contact to foods id order to get a result.
For the above reasons, our project does not have ethical issues more than the coomon necessary issues in all sythetic biology's project. These issues are well known and well discussed in scientific (icluding philosophical) literature. Most of those are related with genetic manipulations.
We show you a brief, but excellent, compendium of revised cietific literature about this topic. These papers also discuss the issues mentioned above:
