Drug-resistant bacteria are now a leading global health risk.   Click here and here to learn more.   By 2050, a human being may die every 3 seconds, and we could lose $100 trillion in global GDP.  This is an existential threat to humanity.  The solution to this deadly threat may be hidden in plain view...

In 2007, researchers at the Mayo Clinic studied a new medical device and were surprised when they discovered that the sound waves it emitted could destroy four of the most dangerous types of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (superbugs) in vitro.

How Does it Work?

Microorganisms have protective shells and cell walls that are critical to their survival. A patented sound wave technique ruptures these structures, effectively destroying the microorganisms.

Conclusions:  

• Sound waves cause direct damage to bacterial cell walls.
• Alter the genetic code of bacteria, making them less virulent.
• Decrease antibiotic resistance, making bacteria more susceptible to therapeutic agents.

In the summer of 1928, a young Scottish physician named Alexander Fleming left a stack of dirty petri dishes in his laboratory sink. They were smeared with dangerous bacteria. When he returned from vacation, he discovered something astonishing: one dish was covered with bacteria, except for a clear area surrounding a patch of mold. He realized that the mold had secreted a substance that killed several strains of the bacteria. Remarkably, this breakthrough went largely unnoticed for 13 years, hidden in plain view.  It was not until 1941 that Fleming’s discovery led to the development of the world’s first antibiotic, penicillin — a breakthrough that changed the course of history.

Destroying drug-resistant bacteria with sound waves. If we can further develop and evolve this technology, we are on the verge of the next medical revolution.  Join us.  Together we can save lives, create value, and change medicine forever.
