For centuries, bee venom has been used to cure and prevent diseases, as well as their honey and propolis and more. Now, researchers have a used a modern twist to bee venom- they have infused nanoparticles with bee venom. For now, the researchers hope to use the technology to make a vaginal gel for use in prevention of HIV. The new technology could also be used in various other diseases, such as some forms of hepatitis. It could also be used as a spermicide. This nanotechnological approach could be the ultimate weapon against sexual disease and overpopulation. The form of a convenient gel for prevention and cures of this nature truly illustrates the marvelous potential of nanotech, common sense and ethical wisdom.
However, if this technology is misused or only given to certain demographics- as much of our past practices has sadly proven- it may become profitable for some (often the few) to hoard, twist or use it for monetary gain or otherwise.
