Abstract
WHILE the world is still waiting to see the first cloned baby allegedly born into the Raelian community some
months ago, last month it witnessed the 25th birthday celebration of the world’s first testtube
baby.
Testtube
baby is a layman's term referring to babies conceived through fertilisation conducted in a glass test
tube, or better known as in vitro fertilisation and embryo replacement (IVF, for short). In vitro is Latin for “in
glass.”
It is now an established method to overcome cases of infertility, generally defined as the inability to conceive a
child despite trying for a year. In other words, a male or female unable to have children now stands a better
chance to have one.
