A History of the Self-Regulation of Recombinant DNA Research in Japan

对日本重组DNA研究自律的历史分析表明，分子生物学家和应用微生物学家与国际贸易和工业部在1984年的“生命科学与人类会议‘第二至第七届国际生物伦理学会议”上一致认为，重组DNA构成的风险是最小的。这导致在逐案审查和生产设施风险评估的基础上废除了物理/生物遏制标准。围绕重组DNA的伦理问题可能正在如火如荼地进行，这是一项旨在获得日本人民对所有操纵生命的研究的理解和支持的政策。

A historical analysis of the self-regulation of recombinant DNA research in Japan revealed that molecular biologists and applied microbiologists, together with the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, agreed in 1984 at the "Conference on Life Sciences and Mankind 'the 2nd to 7th International Conference on Bioethics'" that the risks posed by recombinant DNA were minimal. This led to the abolishment of physical/biological containment standards based on case-by-case reviews and risk assessment at production facilities. It is possible that ethical issues surrounding recombinant DNA put into full swing "Bioethics as a Public Discourse," a policy aimed at obtaining the understanding and support of Japanese people for all research that manipulates life.
