Abstract

The whole purpose of this project is to research the most cost effective and overall medically effective drugs and vitamins that can be included in the kit to help the mother most during pregnancy. The kit has to be effective but at the same time it cannot use the most expensive medicines because people in developing countries cannot afford the kit if it uses the higher price range materials. / Another part of the research is figuring out the most effective and cost efficient antimicrobial agent to coat the razor that cuts the umbilical cord with. This antibacterial agent needs to be able to effectively coat the razor as well as be cheap and effective against bacteria in order to reduce the chance of infection in the mother. /
