Scientist develop Super Condoms that kill HIV virus and enhances pleasure
A new hydrogel-based condom that contains antioxidants has been invented
by a team of Indian-American scientists at the Texas A&M University
Health Science Center. Not only does it contain plant-based
antioxidants, which kills the HIV-virus in case of condom breakage but
it also uses antioxidants to enhance pleasure. Experts say it is the new
big player to join the fight against AIDS
We are not only making a novel material for
condoms to prevent the HIV infection, but we are also aiming to
eradicate this infection if possible. Supercondom could help fight
against HIV infection and may as well prevent unwanted pregnancy or
sexually transmitted diseases. If we succeed, it will revolutionize the
HIV prevention initiative"
Choudhury, the lead researcher and assistant professor at the Texas
A&M Health Science Center's Irma Lerma Rangel College of Pharmacy,
said
The researchers hope to test the condom within the next six months and
then get it released for general usage.
