- Following its successful fundraising of C$4.91 million (US$3.62), Canadian life sciences company Ondine Biomedical Inc. will continue accelerating commercialisation of its proven nasal photodisinfection technology.
- This cutting-edge technology replaces topical antibiotics for the prevention of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and kills all types of pathogens – bacteria, viruses and fungi – without causing antimicrobial resistance.
- The growing global focus on preventing HAIs post-surgery, coupled with the escalating challenge of antimicrobial resistance, has spurred heightened interest in Ondine’s photodisinfection technology.
- The antibiotic mupirocin has been used for nasal decolonization for the prevention of HAIs since the 1980s.
