 DNA is the acronym for deoxyribonucleic acid means DNA. Contains the human genetic code, ie the essential characteristics of the basic structure of man. A reservoir of approximately thirty thousand genes that contain distinctive features of the family as the color of hair or eyes. The scientific developments of recent times have allowed the details of genetics known as the Human Genome, which brings together a detailed map of the characteristics of an individual to a level of precision never seen.

Knowing the DNA has emerged as one of the greatest achievements of modern science, especially if one considers that before the 50s (s. XX), it was assumed that proteins were those containing the genetic information cells, at present already has a record detailed genome sequence of the human (Map of Life), a discovery so revolutionary that since 2003 has been especially welcome by the five great powers of the time (USA, China, Germany England, France), such developments in addition to representing millions of dollars in earnings from patents and discoveries, given the opportunity to clarify relationships, to reopen and investigate unsolved crimes even decades ago, and compare the identity of missing children recovered much later.

However there are concerns that development in genetic research being used on a single-profit purposes and as a way to exclude those potential weaknesses are identified in their genetic map, a type of discrimination that requires innovative legislation Malthusian governments in where first and foremost defend human rights effectively and to respect the right of everyone to exist and be recognized, and not being within the natural ideal genetic improvement.
