Although this may be seen as bad news, it actually represents a huge leap forward by establishing that in microbial communities, the whole is much more than the sum of its parts.

During an outbreak, millions of trees die and begin releasing carbon back to the atmosphere through microbial decay.

For decades, Reysenbach has collected chimneys from deep-sea hydrothermal vents across the world's oceans, and her lab uses genetic fingerprinting and cultivation techniques to study the microbial of the communities associated with these rocks.

Soil can simultaneously store CO from the atmosphere and emit CO through microbial decomposition of organic matter.

The combination of these three components provides for a moist environment best suited for wound healing, with superior anti-microbial activity in an easy-to-use thermo-reversible gelling system that is optimized for sensitive wounds.

The Company has built a proprietary platform that includes a proprietary, microbial library of unique bacterial strains that can be screened for therapeutic characteristics and lead drug candidates.
