In collaboration with leading clinicians and scientists specialising in infection control, antibiotic stewardship, and pandemic preparedness, it supports the clinical adoption of its patented technology, which demonstrates best-in-class efficacy against drug-resistant and multi-drug-resistant pathogens.
