Antibiotic resistance

  • The ability of bacteria and other microorganisms to resist the effects of an antibiotic to which they were once sensitive » WHO estimates that drug-resistant diseases could cause 10 million deaths each year • Aggregated bacteria often covered by slime (biofilm matrix), which
    • by 2050 [1
    • » The world needs a new antibiotic preventing and removing resistant infections without inducing new resistance

Biofilm resistance

  • acts as a fortress and protects bacteria
    • » 1 to 2 percent of the total population are projected to experience a chronic wound during their lifetime in developed countries [2
    • » The world needs a new antibiotic preventing and removing infections protected by a biofilm

Virus

Over the past 10 years, SoftOx has developed and

  • antimicrobial agents
  • Generating unique antimicrobial effects against all known groups of microbes
  • Tweaking the concentrations between the two antimicrobials to develop a broad range of products, satisfying different medical needs
  • Does not induce antimicrobial resistance
  • Developing a solution that is non-toxic at effective concentrations
  • Creating an easily scalable production method

Unrivalled Effect on Bacteria in Biofilms
