Lysins
Lysins are enzymes that digest the bacterial cell wall and rapidly kill bacteria. This process is much faster than conventional antibiotics, which typically require time for bacterial metabolism to occur before killing bacteria or stopping their growth. Other features which differentiate our lysins from conventional antibiotics include rapid biofilm eradication, specificity for target bacteria while preserving the healthy microbiome and a low propensity for resistance. In addition, lysins act synergistically with standard of care antibiotics, resulting in superior efficacy and reduced development of resistance to standard of care antibiotics when administered concomitantly.
