Abstract
"This article reviews ethical issues of consent for genetic research in relation to Latin American bio-banking practices and collaborative research projects with developed countries. There is need for ethical legal safeguards for informed consent procedures so that Bio-banks, bio-specimens and data will be used in accordance with Latin American cultural needs. The issue of national regulations for bio-banking in Latin America may help to clarify what can be done in the field of international and national research respecting subject donations."
