What if there were a better way to control intractable infections?
AmebaGone has harnessed the natural predatory power of amoebae to do just that.
How it works
Dicty spores
Dicty amoebae
Bacterial pathogen
Dicty spores rapidly germinate into amoebae
The amoebae replicate in the presence of their bacterial prey and start hunting
Finally, the amoebae digest the targeted pathogen, eliminating the threat.
Our technology revolutionizes biocontrol by harnessing this natural behavior. We specific amoebic strains to target individual pathogens, such as antibiotic-resistant MRSA.
What makes amoebae so special?
Our use of Dicty amoebae is a significant step forward for medicine for many reasons.
Proven effectiveness against numerous pathogens
Specificity of action
against individual pathogenic cells
Suitable for infections caused by antibiotic-resistance, antibiotic-tolerance, and persister bacteria
Naturally occurring
and safe for humans, animals, and plants
Resilient spores
can survive extreme environments, from the tundra to the tropics
Long shelf life
of dormant spores simplifies storage and transportation
