Taking the bite out of snake venom

(American Chemical Society) According to the World Health Organization, about 100,000 people die from venomous snakebites every year. Many of these fatalities occur in rural areas of developing countries that lack access to antivenoms. That's why researchers are looking for new snakebite antidotes that are easier to make and deploy to remote areas, explains an article in Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN), the weekly newsmagazine of the American Chemical Society.
