my comments...

Personally I avoid new products of most kinds until it demonstrates some track record of success.  At least a bit down the road you more fully understand the full potential of the downside elements of anything 'sprakling brand new'. Personally I will likely never use this product.

As far as contamination is concerned... I must guess many here did not get the memo about contamination and alduration in the industry (wax, pollen and honey). You might first want to reflect on the honey show at the most recent apimondia or perhaps the USDA (I think there is some link to this on the BIP internet link) research project 'Honeybee Health Initiative'.  Perhaps we need to remind everyone that the hard data points to 200+ chemical found in samples (coast to coast) with those chemical found at the highest concentration being beekeeper applied chemical. 

Gene in Central Texas....
