To overview banks, repositories and registries of stem cell lines in Europe excluding bone marrow and cord blood banks; to concisely discuss the most important scientific, regulatory and ethical aspects of stem cell banking in a manner understandable to a layperson, but remain detailed enough not to compromise thoroughness of information. Review of scientific publications, laws and ethical guidelines in this field up through September 2008; hearing the opinions of key persons working in stem cell banking. The article discusses the procedure of stem cell banking and related safety issues and reviews the regulation of stem cell banking at the regional (European) and the national level. Stem cell banking can help meet scientific and certain ethical imperatives, but is complicated in the context of heterogeneous laws, guidelines, and ethical standards. In the pluralistic European society with cultural diversity leading to heterogeneous laws, harmonisation of international guidelines and national laws regulating stem cell banking is needed, as well as mapping of implementation at the national level.
概述欧洲除骨髓库和脐带血库之外的干细胞系库、储存库和登记处；以非专业人士能够理解的方式简要讨论干细胞库最重要的科学、监管和伦理方面，但仍要详细到不影响信息的全面性。回顾截至2008年9月该领域的科学出版物、法律和伦理准则；听取干细胞库领域关键人士的意见。本文讨论了干细胞库的程序及相关安全问题，并回顾了区域（欧洲）和国家层面的干细胞库监管情况。干细胞库有助于满足科学和某些伦理需求，但在法律、准则和伦理标准各异的背景下情况较为复杂。在文化多样性导致法律各异的多元欧洲社会中，需要统一规范干细胞库的国际准则和国家法律，以及在国家层面进行实施情况的梳理。
