About BIASURGE™ Advanced Surgical Solution
BIASURGE™ is a patented composition intended for mechanical cleansing and removal of debris, including microorganisms, from wounds. Based on our BIAKŌS™ technology, the BIASURGE™ ingredients work synergistically to disrupt biofilm extracellular polymeric substances and eliminate planktonic and biofilm microbes. We believe BIASURGE’s biocompatibility, efficacy and ability to be left in a wound without a secondary rinse are a unique combination and will be a market differentiator.
The Company expects BIASURGE™ to be commercially available in late 2023.
