Our Mission
- Developing innovative antimicrobial (Combiotics) to control infection & Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR).
- Diverse antimicrobial agents from Natural Products across various classes with less future resistance chance.
- Committed to enhancing microbial control for improved health outcomes.
Core Technology
Synergistic combination of plant-based small molecules with inorganic salts.
Mechanism of Action: Our comprehensive multi-OMICS studies, combined with probe-based assays, have shown that our plant-based agents target the bacterial cell membrane in the initial step. The bacterial cell membrane has a composition that is markedly different from eukaryotic cell membranes, explaining the agents’ selectivity and thus their safety as antibacterial agents. Moreover, these agents increase glutathione (GSH) levels in eukaryotic cells. GSH is a powerful antioxidant known for its anti-inflammatory properties, playing a crucial role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and reducing inflammation in the body. As a tripeptide composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine, GSH is vital for maintaining cellular health and immune function, acting like a shield for human cells. On the other hand, inorganic salts primarily affect four cellular processes of bacteria: sulfur homeostasis, reactive oxygen species response (by disrupting iron-sulfur (Fe–S) clusters), energy pathways, and the bacterial cell membrane.
