Recently medical assisted procreation, such as artificial conception has developed rapidly, and most recently, cloning embryo experiments reported, these application are still in early stages, and followed ethical debates in this new reproductive technologies. The most vexing ethical issues involve techniques with less obvious benefit to society and greater potential for abuse, therefore, this paper discussed the dangers and ethical problems related with human right such as the development of genome plane, employment, insurance, crime detection by DNA fingerprint, medical diagnosis and treatment by biotechnology, and the manipulation of gene also discussed.
