The notions 'common good' and 'public good' are mostly used as synonyms in bioethical discussion of biobanks, but have different origins. As a consequence, they should be applied differently. In this article, the respective characteristics are worked out and then subsequently examined which consent models emerge from them. Distinguishing normative and descriptive traits of both concepts, it turns out that one concept is unjustly used, and that the other one fits better to the context of a plural society. A reflected use of these differing concepts may help to choose an appropriate form of consent and allows public trust in biobank research to deepen.
在生物样本库的生物伦理讨论中，“共同利益”和“公共利益”这两个概念大多被用作同义词，但它们有着不同的起源。因此，它们的应用方式应该有所不同。在本文中，将阐述各自的特征，随后考察从中产生的哪些同意模式。区分这两个概念的规范性和描述性特征后发现，其中一个概念被不恰当地使用了，而另一个概念更适合多元社会的背景。对这些不同概念的审慎运用可能有助于选择合适的同意形式，并加深公众对生物样本库研究的信任。
