PGD- Pre Implantation Genetic Diagnosis report!
In this report I am going to be talking about PGD, Pre Implantation Genetic Diagnosis. I will be explaining the economic, ethical, cultural and social affects this type of treatment will have on people. By using 4 or more sources within this report to support my opinion (and giving the websites or other different sources I have used at the end of this report), also using pictures, graphs and tables to help with the for and against argument. I will also be including examples of the improved/further developed treatments and explaining IVF as other examples of outside human fertilisation. I hope by the end of this report to have achieved a level 7 or 8 and also included my opinion on Pre Implantation Genetic Diagnosis. I have also done a power point including diagrams (which I gave you), and more information!
To start off with I am going to explain the history behind fertilisation. Back in the 1980’s, was when human IVF was fully developed, which coincided with the breakthrough of the highly sensitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology. Handyside and collaborators' first successful tests happened in October 1989, with the first births in 1990 though the preliminary experiments had been published some years earlier. In the first cases, PCR was used for sex determination of patients carrying x-linked diseases. This type of treatment then became highly popular during the 1990’s, as it was used to determine a handful of serve genetic disorders such as sickle-cell anaemia, Tay Sachs disease, Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy, and Beta-thalassemia. The future of IVF looks great, an example is when the government back in 2013, gave the agreement of using DNA from 3 people, to prevent the transmission of inherited disorders from the mother. Another example of the future development of IVF is a genetic screening that will lead to better pregnancy rates. This can be used worldwide, it is a screening of the embryos created by
