Scientific experiments with human beings have marked the history of mankind. In certain periods, as an example we can mention the Second World War, where nazirs subjected their prisoners to terrible experiments, they are a reference of cruelty and neglect of life. Among other moments during the historical period where human beings were used as guinea pigs. Nowadays, science does seek new knowledge that requires an experimental phase but is carried out according to a regulation that concerns what may or may not be carried out, as the State seeks to protect the dignity of the human person and guarantee the physical integrity of each one. This area is increasingly in need of attention as to the methods applied and Bioethics and Biological Rights have been playing an important role. Covering improvements for human well-being is necessary and complying with the law as well.
