LET'S KNOW WHO IS THE HISTORY OF IVF, WHAT IS THE FATHER OF IT, ITS PROCESS

Today IVF is being used all over the world and more than 5 million babies have been born with this technique. IVF is a fertility treatment that is designed for people who are unable to have a child. Infertile couples are treated with this procedure. Through IVF, many childless couples have got the pleasure of having their own children. Earlier such children were called test tube babies. The world's first test tube baby was born on 25 July 1978 in London, Louis Joy Brown. This day is celebrated as World IVF Day.

 IVF parent history

Robert Edwards 

The process was first used in the world by Patrick Steppo and Robert Edwards in the United Kingdom when they were 87 years old. Their child born through this process was named Lewis Brown, who was born on 25 July 1978 in Manchester.

Louise Brown, the world's first test tube baby, paid tribute to Edwards, saying,

              "I always treated Robert Edwards like my grandfather. The work he did has brought joy to the lives of millions of people around the world."

            "I am delighted that he has been with us for so long and has seen his work receive a Nobel Prize. His legacy will continue to grow with the work on IVF around the world," he said.

Professor Edwards was a Fellow at the University of Cambridge. The university said the work of Professor Edwards had revolutionized the economy. Born in Yorkshire in 1925 to a working family, Professor Edwards served in the British Army during World War II. After returning home, he first studied agricultural science and then turned to genetics. Earlier research had confirmed that a female rabbit's egg could be fertilized in a test tube with a male rabbit's sperm. Professor Edwards tried this technique on humans.

Nobel Prize

In 1968, in a laboratory in Cambridge, he developed a human embryo outside the womb for the first time.

 "I will never forget the day I looked under the microscope and saw a human blastocyst (the condition immediately after fertilization) staring at me. Unknowingly it came out of my mouth." Turns out 'we have been successful in our work'."

                            Professor Edwards recalled the moment, saying,

Professor Edwards was awarded the Nobel in 2010 and the Knighthood in 2011
Due to illness and weakness, Professor Edwards could not travel to Stockholm to receive the Nobel Prize in 2010 and was awarded on his behalf by his wife, Ruth.

Dr. Subhash Mukhopadhyay 

This process was used for the first time in India by Dr. Subhash Mukhopadhyay. But just 67 days after the birth of Louis, the doctor who brought the first test tube baby to the world in India was so harassed by the Bengal government that he committed suicide on 19 June 1981.

Dr. Disha says that if Dr. Subhash Mukhopadhyay's discovery was respected and his technique was carried forward, then today he would have been far ahead in this field. The reason for not accepting his claim was that such a great achievement of an Indian doctor was not acceptable to the foreign doctors. He rejected Mukhopadhyay's claim and was ridiculed by many people not only in the world but also in the country. Jyoti Basu's government of Bengal transferred her, calling her claim wrong. Harassed in every way. But after his death, world experts believed that Dr. Subhash Mukhopadhyay's technique was correct and his claim was also justified.

Dr. TC Anand Kumar brought to the fore the achievement

It is also worth mentioning that after the death of Dr. Mukhopadhyay, his research and work was brought to the world by the same person, who was considered to have brought the first test tube baby to the world in India. He was Dr. TC Anand Kumar. Dr. Anand gave birth to a test tube baby eight years after Durga's birth.

She was also a girl and her name was Harsha. Harsha was considered as the first test tube baby in the country until Dr. Anand himself gave the credit to Dr. Mukhopadhyay for producing the first test tube baby in the country.

The truth revealed from the diary of Dr. Mukhopadhyay

The country and the world would have forgotten the contribution of Dr. Mukhopadhyay, but the documents related to his diary and research work were made available to Dr. Anand by Dr. Mukhopadhyay's wife. After observing them, Dr. Anand honestly accepted that Dr. Mukhopadhyay was the one who gave birth to the first test tube baby in India. 

He had talked about the birth of the girl Durga in 1978. She was absolutely fine and the credit for giving birth to the first test tube baby in India should go to her, not me (Dr. Anand).

Dr. Mukhopadhyay's claim got international recognition

 Eventually Dr. Mukhopadhyay's claim got international recognition.

Dr. Mukhopadhyay's achievements have been included in the Dictionary of Medical Biography. In this, the contribution of 1100 leading medical experts from hundred countries all over the world is mentioned.

 So another Indian would have got the Nobel

Dr. Robert Edward, who is considered the father of IVF technology, who created the world's first test tube baby, received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2010. The fact is that Dr. Mukhopadhyay and Edward started working on IVF almost simultaneously. If India had supported Dr. Mukhopadhyay and claimed it, it was possible that Dr. Mukhopadhyay would have won the Nobel Prize. Or Mukhopadhyay and Edward would have got it jointly.

What happens during pregnancy

This process requires the egg (egg) of the female and the sperm (sperm) of the man. Together these two form the initial stage of infant production which is called embryo. If there is a problem with the egg of the woman, the sperm of the man or both, then it is considered sterile. Also pregnancy is not possible. Which means that the female partner cannot get pregnant naturally. This is the condition that requires treatment for sterility and IVF comes into play. There could be a problem with the sperm. If there are some problems in both, then this problem is called Couple Infertility. Many such situations have also come to the fore, in which the couple is able to conceive naturally after many years of efforts, but this is a rare situation.

What is IVF?

In this, the female egg and male sperm are fertilized outside the body. 'In-vitro' refers to 'in-glass' which means inside the glass. The fertilization process is done in a glass petri dish inside the lab.

This embryo is then implanted in the woman's uterus so that it can grow and take on the shape of a baby.

What happens in the IVF process?

In this process the female and male are checked, after that the process proceeds according to the result.

• The men's semen is cleaned in the lab. Then the active (good) and inactive (useless) sperms are separated.

• Eggs are taken out of the woman's body through injection and frozen.
• The active sperm is then placed on top of the egg in a petri-dish in the lab and released to reproduce naturally.
• By the third day of reproduction the embryo is ready.
• With the help of a catheter which looks like a special flexible tube, it is transferred to the woman's uterus.
• Sometimes the embryo is placed in the woman's uterus after monitoring for up to 5 days.
• The pregnancy success rate is higher in the 5-day-old fetus.

IVF pregnancy is like a normal pregnancy, only the embryo is prepared in the lab, which does not cause any side effects. Many people believe that due to IVF treatment, there can be some deficiency inside the child. This thinking is not correct because the whole process from reproduction to childbirth happens naturally. The development of the baby takes place in the mother's womb, the development of the child depends on the diet and reactions of the mother. There are different types of treatment for many fertility problems. Sometimes the problem is due to lack of sperm, movement of sperms, size of sperms, absence of sperms in semen, poor quality sperm, poor quality eggs or problems in ovulation.The treatments for IVF procedures are categorized below. But it is important to know that fertility treatments are administered individually and not in the general category.

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

A technique where male sperm is inserted into the woman's uterus during ovulation. This technique is used if there is any deficiency in the sperms of the man. In this procedure, after the semen is cleaned in the lab, a healthy sperm is selected which is transferred to the woman's uterus. This procedure is successful if the quality of male sperm is good.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)

A healthy sperm is selected from the man's semen and then injected into the woman's egg. This procedure is used in cases where the motility of male sperm is low. ICSI success is 70-85% for healthy female eggs. Once the sperm is injected into the egg, it is fertilized naturally. The embryo is then implanted in the woman's uterus.

Donor ivf procedure

If the quality of sperm or eggs of the couple is poor, then donor egg or sperm and donor embryo are used. Donor IVF is recommended in cases where the partner has a genetic disease. Donor eggs are needed in women with ovarian reserve failure.

Surrogacy (adopted womb)

Surrogacy is a good option for women who cannot have a baby due to problems in the uterus or any other difficulty. Surrogacy is a contract in which the surrogate mother keeps the baby in her womb until the birth and passes it on to the parents after birth. In this, the embryo is fertilized inside the lab and transferred to the uterus of the surrogate mother. There is no genetic relationship of the baby with the surrogate mother. There are many reasons why couples choose surrogacy, including cancer treatment, or women who do not have a uterus or have a problem with their reproductive system.

When might IVF be needed?

Male fertility

This is a problem that is found in many men. Male fertility treatment is helpful for low sperm count, sperm movement, sperm size, poor quality sperm in semen or inability to ejaculate. In IVF, only one healthy sperm is needed to fertilize the egg.

Female infertility

Many women have problems with ovulation, due to which they face difficulties such as irregular periods, very painful periods, heavy bleeding in periods, or lack of periods. All this affects their fertility. Blockages in the fallopian tubes or problems with the uterus are among the common causes of sterility. In IVF procedure, injections are made in the ovary to develop more eggs.IVF has given hope to couples who are unable to conceive. Some couples find it difficult to conceive due to minor problems while some have to deal with this problem due to the reasons of major problems. Through IVF, all those couples can get the happiness of a child.

Process

ICSE is used when the number of eggs is low or the sperm are not in a better state to interact with the egg. In this, sperms are injected directly into the ovum by micromanipulation technique. In ZIFT, a woman's eggs are removed and fertilized and implanted in the female fallopian tube rather than in her uterus. The process of IVF is complete as superovulation, retrieval of eggs, fertilization and embryo transfer. It can also be used by women who have had menopause and have closed fallopian tubes. Thus this facility proves to be a boon.

other types of fertilization.

• Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer (ZIFT)
• Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT)
• Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)

Zygote intrafallopian transfer

ZIFT is also similar to IVF. Fertilization is done in the laboratory. The very mature embryo is then put into the fallopian tube instead of the uterus. In this the sperms and eggs are fertilized outside the body.

Gamete interfallopian transfer

Under GIFT, the egg and semen are transferred to the oviduct of the woman. Fertilization takes place in the body of the woman itself.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection

In ICSI, only one sperm is injected into the fertilized egg. The embryo is then transferred to the uterus or oviduct. It is used for those couples who have some serious disease related to semen. Sometimes it is also used for older couples or those who have had unsuccessful IVF attempts.

WHO WAS THE FIRST INDIAN WOMAN TO OPEN A SCHOOL FOR GIRLS

Savitribai Jyotirao Phule is still alive in our hearts by becoming an example. As soon as his name comes to the fore, his head rises high with pride. The country and society will always be indebted to Savitri Bai Phule for her incomparable contribution to education. 

 
 
At the time when Phule lit the flame of education, at that time girls were kept deprived of education, yet she took up the cause of women's education and carried it to its end. After which women from the frustrated sections of the society also started coming forward to take education. 1852 Savitribai Phule was the first principal of India's first girls' school and the founder of the first farmer's school. 

Mahatma Jyotirao is regarded as one of the most important figures in the social reform movement in Maharashtra and India. She is known for her efforts to educate women and downtrodden castes. Jyotirao, later known as Jyotiba, was the patron, mentor and supporter of Savitribai. Savitribai lived her life as a mission whose objective was to get widow remarriage, eradicate untouchability, women's emancipation and educate Dalit women. She was also a poet, she was also known as Adikaviyatri of Marathi.

Introduction

Savitribai Jyotirao Phule was born (3 January 1831 – 10 March 1897) in a Dalit family in Nayagaon, Satara district of Maharashtra. Savitribai Jyotirao Phule's father's name was Khandoji Navase and mother's name was Lakshmi.

 
Savitribai is India's first female teacher, as well as the first leader of India's women's liberation movement, social reformer and she is considered the forerunner of modern Marathi poetry. Along with her husband Jyotirao Govindrao Phule, she did remarkable work in the field of women's rights and education.

 Savitribai was married at the age of nine

She was married at the age of 9 with the social worker Jyotirao Phule in 1840. After marriage, she soon moved to Pune with her husband.

She was illiterate when she got married. But he was very fond of studies. Savitribai's dream was to get higher education. But at that time there was a lot of discrimination with the Dalits. Historians tell that one day Phule was seen by his father while turning the pages of an English book. Came to Savitri and snatched the book and threw it out. Savitri did not understand. When he asked his father the reason, he said that only upper caste men have the right to study.At that time it was a sin for women to study along with Dalits. After this incident, Savitribai vowed that whatever happens, she will definitely take education. Impressed by her passion for reading and learning, her husband taught her to read and write further. Savitribai took training to become a teacher in Ahmednagar and Pune and became a qualified teacher. He fulfilled this vow on the strength of his efforts. Few people know that Savitri Bai Phule was a poet. 41 of his poems were published in 1854 which are still available today.

Social difficulties (people pelting stones, throwing dirt instead of giving education)

Today the women of India may have established their supremacy from technology to space, but before independence, women in India were counted in second class. They did not have the right to education like today. On the other hand, if we talk about the 18th century, then it was considered a sin for women to go to school at that time. What Savitribai Phule has done at such a time is no ordinary achievement. He had to face strong opposition from the society for educating the girl child. Many times it happened when they had to eat stones from the contractors of the society. People used to throw dirt, mud, dung, even feces on them. Savitribai used to carry a sari in her bag and on reaching school used to change the sari that had been soiled. Gives very good motivation to keep walking on your path.

 Founded the first school on his birthday 

Savitribai, along with her husband, founded the first school in Pune on January 3, 1848, on her 18th birthday. In which nine girl students of different castes were admitted. In a year, Savitribai and Mahatma Phule were successful in opening five new schools. 

The then government also honored him. How difficult it must have been for a female principal to run a girls' school in the year 1848, it probably cannot be imagined even today. There were social restrictions on the education of girls at that time. Savitribai Phule not only studied herself during that period, but also arranged for the education of other girls.

Savitribai's goal was to give women their rights in the society. 

The plight of widows in the country also hurt Savitribai a lot. So in 1854 he opened a shelter for widows. After years of continuous improvement she was able to convert it into a large shelter in 1864. Destitute women, widows and child daughters-in-law who were abandoned by their families started getting space in this shelter home. Savitribai used to teach and write to all of them.He also adopted Yashwantrao, the son of a widow dependent in this institution. At that time, Dalits and low caste people were forbidden to go to the common villages to get water from the well. This bothered her and her husband a lot. So she dug a well along with her husband so that those people too could easily get water. There was a lot of opposition to his move at that time.

Did her husband's last rites himself 

Savitribai's husband Jyotirao died in 1890. At that time, leaving behind all social norms, she performed the last rites of her husband and lit his funeral pyre.

Death

Seven years after her husband's death, when plague spread all over Maharashtra in 1897, she set out to help the people in the affected areas, during which she herself became a victim of plague and breathed her last on March 10, 1897. .

WHERE IS THE WORLD'S FIRST TREE CLINIC AND HOSPITAL LOCATED ?

Do you know that there is also a place in the world where the world's first treeclinic is there. IRS officer Rohit Mehra has started a 'Tree Clinic and Hospital' to take care of sick trees. Which can be the world's first tree hospital to be operated in Amritsar India.'Tree dispensary and clinic' You have heard of a variety of clinics and hospitals for different diseases, for humans as well as animals, but have you ever heard of a 'tree dispensary and clinic' for sick trees? Have you heard that it has its own tree-ambulance? We bet you haven't. This is because it was not there earlier and for the first time in the whole world a hospital has been specially established to take care of the trees suffering from diseases. Behind this unique idea is Mr. Rohit Mehra, an IRS officer who is popularly referred to as the "Green Man of India". Today Mr. Rohit Mehra's hard work has paid off, he has started a campaign to keep the trees green in Amritsar.

About Tree Clinic 

Mr. Mehra believes that trees are just like humans. They eat, drink, grow old and die - just like all of us humans. And like us, they too suffer from ailments including physical, biological and chemical diseases. Most of the population survives on a vegetarian or plant-based diet and naturally, eating diseased plants will harm our bodies as well. He realized that there was not a single organization that focused only on the treatment of sick and diseased tree plants; Hence, he started 'Pushpa Clinic and Hospital' in Amritsar, Punjab for the care of trees.

Mr. Mehra said we provide 33 different types of services which include day care, nail removal, trimming, tree guard removal, uprooting trees, grooming, revitalization etc. The whole process is done naturally. Mr. Mehra has deeply scanned the book 'Vriksha Ayurveda' which gives details of plant diseases and also includes remedies to revive them. In addition, he has tied up with several botanists to be involved in the project.

      “You can either bring your little plant to the clinic to be examined; Ping us online about the diseases you are seeing in your tree or you can call for a tree ambulance”

 Said Mr. Mehra

About Tree Ambulance 

The Tree Ambulance has basic gardening and treatment equipment including bio jibs, fertilizers etc and goes on to identify and treat trees and plants according to their ailments.


     “For tree ambulances, we took e-rickshaws and converted them into full-fledged ambulances. We have roped in some volunteers, tree experts, scientists, botanists and some tree lovers who are ready to help in this initiative.”

Said Mr Mehra

Mr Mehra has also provided a phone number where people can call and share the issues their trees are suffering from, and the ambulance team will reach their location, identify the problem and work on it. "This is just the beginning so we have limited resources but soon we will start uprooting and replanting trees," he said.

Public participation

 In this unique endeavor of Mr. Mehra many people have started joining the project. (various arborists) People who specialize in pruning trees have also taken an interest in the project.

    “The services we are providing are completely free. I am not doing this for monetary purpose. This is my gift to Mother Nature, 

Said Mr Mehra



Mr. Mehra has devised various measures like 'Panchratna and Neem Shastra' to protect the trees from harmful elements like termites by using natural resources. He has also made a manual to instruct the people. There is only one complete factory in Ludhiana making gardener tools. Mr. Mehra has collaborated with them for resources.His team visits the homes of the local people and guides them about the planting and use of plants and trees.

   “If anyone would need help setting up a garden or kitchen garden, my team would go to their place and help them set up everything. They will come again after 5-6 days to pay attention to the growth of the plants and guide them accordingly,

Said Mr Mehra

He also clears trees that are harmed during the traditional rituals that elders usually do, and makes people aware of what kind of plants they can grow and keep inside their homes.

Use of natural resources

Mr. Mehra treats each plant with utmost care, using only natural means. They have completely avoided the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides to keep the plants in good health. All the bio-fertilizers used by the clinic are 100% natural and organic. He is using seed balls, natural decomposers that increase soil fertility, to induce growth, and using kitchen waste and animal waste as fertilizer.

   "This helped in two ways: we could regenerate the waste and use it as fertilizers, and through that we were able to increase plant growth"

Said Mr Mehra

Mr. Mehra appeals to the public to take care of their green friends like their own family, as they too have life. Basic steps like ensuring their good health and keeping them away from the areas will automatically take them a long way.

Clinic opening

 
  
The clinic was inaugurated on 30th January, 2020 and has attracted people from all over Amritsar. We are confident that its reputation will grow in leaps and bounds beyond Amritsar.

WHAT IS THE SCIENCE BEHIND WHY THE SUN APPEARS RED DURING SUNRISE AND SUNSET?


The secret of this scientific process lies in Rayleigh scattering, Lord Rayleigh being the first British scientist to explain light scattering in the 19th century. Sunlight consists of all colors and this process occurs when sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere and all the colors together make the sunlight bright white. All colors present in sunlight have different scattering abilities. All colors except red light are scattered or scattered and mixed into the light. Then the dust and soil particles collide and spread, but this does not happen at sunrise and sunset.

The rays of the sun have seven colors, of which the rainbow or vibgyor is formed. Its colors are purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Red has the longest wavelength. This means that the red color can be seen from the farthest. When the sun rises or sets, it is farthest from our eyes, so its red color is clearly visible to us, while the other 6 colors are not visible due to distance.

What color is the Sun really, yellow, red or white?

If you are asked what color the Sun is, what will you answer? Of course, most people would describe it as yellow and some as red. But in reality the color of the sun is different. Former NASA astronaut Scott Kelly on Tuesday confirmed this space fact, that is, he told what color the Sun is. While on Earth, we see the Sun as yellow, because of the physics of light. For this reason the Sun appears yellow to us. But the true color of the Sun is actually white. The Sun appears yellow to us because of the Earth's atmosphere. But once you get out of Earth's atmosphere, the Sun appears white instead of a single colour. Actually, the sunlight mixes all the colors together, which appears white to our eyes, but this can be easily seen only in the pictures taken from space.



Light has an effect on the photoreceptor cells in our eyes. This brings all the colors together. When all the colors of light mix together, they end up in white. For this reason the Sun appears yellow, red or white on Earth and white in space. Earth's atmosphere plays a role in the color of the Sun. It allows our brain to perceive blue and yellow. Although it has no effect on our eyes. Whatever X-ray and gamma-ray radiation is in sunlight, it gets filtered before it gets close to the ground.

Why does the sky appear blue?

To understand why the sky appears blue to us, we first need to understand a little about light. White light from the Sun is actually made up of the spectrum of many different colors that we see spread out in a rainbow. Light is a wave of energy and different colors have all kinds of wavelengths. At one end of the light spectrum is red which has the longest wavelength and on the other side is blue and violet light which has very short wavelengths. When sunlight reaches the Earth's atmosphere, it It is dispersed, or deflected, by small molecules of gas (mostly nitrogen and oxygen) in the air. Because these molecules are so small compared to the wavelength of visible light, the amount of scattering depends on the wavelength. This effect is called Rayleigh scattering, named after Lord Rayleigh who first discovered it. Shorter wavelengths (violet and blue) are scattered most strongly,


so more blue light is scattered toward our eyes than other colors. You may wonder why the sky doesn't actually look violet because violet light More strongly scattered than blue. This is because sunlight doesn't have as much violet to begin with, and our eyes are more sensitive to blue.
