| | A unique mela to spread awareness about test-tube babies - Deccan Herald |
 | | The meet was organised with a view to create awareness on test tube babies and the procedure involved. | | | Parents of about 100 test-tube babies congregated in Ahmedabad in a test-tube baby mela that was aimed at creating awareness about test-tube babies and about IVF. | | | The doctor couple feel that in India, though the number of test tube babies are on rise, there is still a myth surrounding these babies like these are born outside the womb of mother and so on. |

| | Test-tube babies 'at risk' |
| | A quarter-century after the advent of in-vitro conception, infants born from these techniques are three times likelier than normally-conceived babies to be born very prematurely (at 32 weeks or less) and to weigh 1.5kg or less. | | | Its authors, led by Frans Helmerhorst of Leiden University Medical Centre in the Netherlands, do not offer any theory as to why IVF babies appear to fare worse than naturally-conceived infants. | | | But, they say, the results clearly show that interest in IVF has to change. |

| | Amazon.com: Books: Pandora's Baby : How the First Test Tube Babies Sparked the Reproductive Revolution |
| | A million test-tube babies have been born since Louise Brown, and it sometimes seems that as many bioethicists have been produced with them, destined to convene as part of federal advisory panels and to debate, endlessly, issues on which the U.S. government may or may not act. | | | Still, Pandora's Baby sheds a great deal of light on this too-little-appreciated set of scientific breakthroughs, and stresses the odd ways in which women were thrust onto the sidelines of this drama. | | | The subjects of IVF -- especially in the early phases of research -- were quite deliberately kept in the dark about what was being done with their wombs. |

| | In vitro fertilisation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | "In vitro" is Latin for "in glass", referring to the test tubes, however neither glass nor test tubes are being used; the term is used generically for laboratory procedures. | | | The first in-vitro fertilization to produce test tube baby "Durga" in India and second in the world was performed by a Calcutta based doctor Dr.Subhash Mukhopadhyay on October 3, 1978. | | | Initially the IVF was developed to overcome infertility due to problems of the fallopian tube, but it turned out that it was successful in most other infertility situations as well. |

| | Although so far most IVF babies seem normal — that is, they have medical problems in about the same numbers as the rest of us — concerns persist about the true effects of having been conceived in the lab. | | | The fact is, reproductive research's goal has long been to "improve" babies. | | | In fact, several recent studies marked increases in birth defects and eye cancers among IVF children, and several studies have indicated that babies conceived by a sperm injection technique known as ICSI may be at higher risk for some genetic ailments. |

| | 2) Children conceived in a test tube and implanted in a host carrier are the legal children of the woman who gave birth to them since parturition and birth occurred in that woman, and conception is not legally significant since it occurred in no woman's body. | | | Thus, a clone, no less than any other "born" child, meets the prima-facia test for humanness and is to be considered human. | | | Indeed, the definition of humanness found in the Encyclopedia Talmudit should be enough to "prove" that a cloned human is human when it is born to a human mother. |

| | When Louise Brown was born on July 25, 1978, in England, she was the world's first test tube baby, the result of a now-common procedure called in vitro fertilization (IVF). | | | IVF is usually the treatment of choice for a woman with blocked or absent fallopian tubes, through which the egg travels from the ovary to the uterus. | | | IVF is rarely covered by insurance and treatments can range from $5,000 to $8,000, with an additional $2,000 for drug costs. |
