Contri-butions

Of Chemistry to science and technology

By Luis Baldwin

MEDICINE

Chemistry helps medicine in the creation of drugs; the scientists design new molecules. Before the Humans used plants to cure themselves, now we are substituting it to tablets, capsules, and injections. These are a very good option thanks to their solubility to any fluid and their fast act on the human body.

Now there is a new obstacle in the creation of new drugs: The penicilin is being resisted. A new species is arising with resistance to resistance?

FOOD

Chemistry helps farmers to increase the yields, which could an improvement for food, helping the control of weeds, insects, and fungal diseases. The scientists created Azoxystrobin, the world's largest agricultural fungicide, leading to a increase of crops; it is available in around 100 countries.

The bad thing is that farmers create transgenic food, making them bigger, but unstable with nature. Is like having the most inteligent boy that cannot live without you.
