胎儿性别自检产品面世

US company IntelliGender has created an at-home test which can determine a baby's sex when the mother is in her 10th week of prengancy, with 78-80% accuracy, CBS News reported. The test takes about 10 minutes for the urine sample to turn either green for a boy or orange for a girl. The test costs around $30 in pharmacies. Critics say it may lead to abortion when parents are not satisfied with the baby's gender.(See photo)

据美国哥伦比亚广播公司报道，美国智慧性别公司近日研发一种检测胎儿性别的产品，称妇女在怀孕10周时就可在家自行验出胎儿性别，准确率达78-80%。该公司表示，孕妇采检尿液样本10分钟后，如果呈现绿色，表示胎儿是男生，橙色是女生。产品售价30美元。批评者认为，这可能导致一些夫妇在得知胎儿性别不符己意时选择堕胎。(见图)
