[Effects of "the embryo protection law" on "encapsulated" organ transplantation]. / Auswirkungen eines "Embryonenschutzgesetzes" auf die "kapselgeschützte" Organtransplantation.

In order to create a capsula-protected homeotransplantat all manipulations which prevent the birth of the child or the growth of other "unwanted" organs will be done either on an egg or on an embryo (in vitro). Both is regarding the current Criminal Law not forbidden. The discussion concerning the Protection of Embryos and the in vitro fertilization in Austria and the Federal Republic of Germany shows, that human semen and eggs should be protected and any artificial variation of them, as well as manipulations on embryos, should be forbidden, even by penal law. If this becomes law in Austria, the capsula-protected homeotransplantation will be incompatible to the abortion allowed until the 3. month of pregnancy ("Fristenlösung").
