Skin, bone and tendons are treated like coal, timber and oil -- despite laws against profiting from tissue. PART 2: April 17 SKIN MERCHANTS A carefully monitored system insures that donated internal organs go to people in dire need, but the body's largest organ, skin, is sold increasingly to plastic surgeons instead of to burn units where it is needed most. PART 3: April 18 RESEARCHERS Researchers are using the bodies of the dead as guinea pigs in car-crash tests and other experiments. PART 4: April 19 GATEKEEPERS The federal government loosely regulates the medical use of body parts. Doctors and hospitals are not required to inform patients who received diseased transplants when tissue is recalled. PART 5: April 20 PIONEERS One Santa Monica family that made a fortune off donated human body parts represents what is good and what is troubling inside the tissue trade. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTACT US Please join the online conversation at dialog.ocregister.com/ Fax us at (714) 796-5030; phone your comments to (714) 550-4636, category 4523; or write us at The Body Brokers, The Orange County Register, P.O.
