Mr. Am Gill reports

BIOSENTA ANNOUNCES BREAKTHROUGH DISCOVERY IN ANTI-MICROBIAL EFFICACY OF TRI-FILLER IN COLLABORATION WITH DR. IAN LEWIS AND DR. MAEN HUSEIN'S LABS

Biosenta Inc. has made a pivotal discovery led by Dr. Mehdi Mohammadi Ashani, a postdoctoral researcher under the mentorship of Dr. Ian Lewis and Dr. Maen Husein at the University of Calgary. Utilizing the advanced capabilities of the Alberta Centre for Advanced Diagnostics (ACAD), this research has revealed that Tri-Filler, the company's flagship product, effectively sterilizes a wide range of micro-organisms, including:

  • E. coli and P. aeruginosa (gram-negative bacteria);
  • S. aureus and E. faecalis (gram-positive bacteria);
  • C. auris and C. albicans (fungi).

The company has previously conducted tests on a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi for various applications such as paint, drywall and plastic, and the results were highly encouraging. In a more recent development, it applied its product to test its effectiveness against GFP E. coli, leading to the discovery of a new phenomenon that introduces an innovative approach to combat bacteria.

Cutting-edge collaboration

The discovery is a culmination of the synergistic efforts between Dr. Lewis's lab, which focuses on metabolic analysis of human pathogens, especially multidrug-resistant bacteria, and Dr. Husein's lab, which has been developing environmentally friendly, non-toxic agents against drug-resistant fungus. This groundbreaking research aligns with both labs' key objectives, including developing rapid diagnostic tools and pioneering new anti-microbial strategies.

Unveiling the power of Tri-Filler

Tri-Filler has exhibited immense promise in these lab tests. It not only inhibits the growth of diverse pathogens but eradicates them and also has applications in enhancing the material properties of plastics, paints, coatings and textiles. In addition, Tri-Filler is an effective carbon sink as it uses carbon dioxide in the process of creating the particle.

The broader impact

Am Gill, chief executive officer of Biosenta, stated: "This novel discovery takes us from a defensive to an offensive strategy against microbial threats. The technology attracts microbes and effectively kills them. Our Tri-Filler technology is not only novel but also a cornerstone in material science."

About Dr. Ashani and Dr. Husein

Dr. Ashani works closely with Dr. Lewis and Dr. Husein, contributing to both academic and practical applications in the field of infectious diseases and microbiology, metabolomics, and biomedical device development. Dr. Husein, who first started working on his disinfectant during the COVID-19 pandemic, is exploring other avenues, such as combatting drug-resistant fungus and enhancing material properties.

Biosenta's continued commitment

Biosenta remains steadfast in its mission to revolutionize the material world and confront significant global health and environmental challenges. Its interdisciplinary approach, combining cutting-edge research with practical applications, positions it at the forefront of scientific innovation.

About Biosenta Inc.

Biosenta, a groundbreaking pioneer in the field of anti-microbial solutions, is on a mission to revolutionize the material world. It develops cutting-edge chemical compounds designed to eliminate harmful micro-organisms such as bacteria, fungi and viruses for household and industrial uses, while ensuring safety for both humans and the environment. Its aim is to address the escalating global health crisis of anti-microbial resistance (AMR).

Its groundbreaking approach has birthed two main offerings:

  1. True disinfectant: Its pioneering, broad-spectrum, anti-microbial, dual-action disinfectant is recognized by Health Canada for use in the fight against COVID-19. It designed it to be tough on germs but gentle on humans, causing no irritation or harm. With its long-lasting disinfecting power, it effectively kills bacteria, germs, mould, mildew and viruses. Its true technology leads the charge against the threat of superbug pathogens.
  2. Tri-Filler: Biosenta's flagship product, Tri-Filler, symbolizes its commitment to transforming the material world. The Tri in Tri-Filler represents three key characteristics:
    1. Anti-microbial power: Tri-Filler delivers impressive anti-microbial protection, stopping the growth of bacteria, fungi, mould and viruses. It provides a critical defence against the escalating anti-microbial resistance (AMR) global health crisis.
    2. Material enhancement: Ingeniously engineered by encapsulating calcium hydroxide with calcium carbonate, Tri-Filler is a food-grade, biocompatible solution. It not only imparts anti-microbial properties but also enhances the strength, fire retardancy and performance of various materials, including plastics, paints, coatings, textiles and cement. It fortifies these materials against forces and stresses that could cause damage or failure. Its accelerated aging tests show that this solution can maintain efficacy for up to an impressive 99 years.
    3. Ecoefficiency: Tri-Filler represents a significant stride toward a greener future. By incorporating CO2 in the encapsulation process, Tri-Filler aids in reducing carbon dioxide emissions, helping businesses in achieving their sustainability goals.

With potential applications in various industries, Tri-Filler can be embedded in drywall, plastic, resin and paper, providing decades-long protection against mould, fungi, bacteria and viruses. Its compounds remain active, ensuring long-term protection for buildings, objects such as resin furniture, carpet rubber backing, synthetic tufts and more.

Proudly Canadian, Biosenta is at the forefront of reshaping the material world for the better, tackling significant global health and environmental challenges. It is committed to making the world a safer and healthier place.

We seek Safe Harbor.
