Before the development of antibiotics, bacterial and fungal pathogens had devastating effects on human mortality rates. Humans were unable to combat basic infections, food spoilage, and disease outbreaks amongst livestock. Now, drug-resistant superbugs' are emerging and the rate of antibiotic discovery has stalled, leading to what the CDC calls, “One of the world’s most pressing public health problems.”
MARKETS
Where we see the lack of antibiotics having the greatest impact
HUMAN HEALTH
700,000 people a year die from drug-resistant diseases; by 2050, it’s expected the death toll could reach 10 million per year. Without the advent of new antibiotics, there’s no way to stop these drug-resistant diseases.
Plant products also have the potential to promote health and to help mitigate inflammation, cancer, diabetes, and other health issues.
FOOD SAFETY
Fresh produce recalls have increased by a dramatic amount in the 21st century due to antibiotic resistance. Food safety is of the utmost importance to consumers, producers, and regulatory agencies. Stakeholders are calling for natural, plant-derived antimicrobials to ensure collective food safety.
Natural additives to extend quality, taste, health benefits or to extend shelf life of food products is another market opportunity.
NATURAL SKIN PRODUCTS
Natural plant products can nourish your skin while providing cleansing, anti-microbial activity for clear, healthy skin. Natural plant products can also promote longer lasting cosmetic products that resist contamination while providing healthy benefits.
ANIMAL HEALTH
The potential benefits to animal health by using natural bioactive compounds to promote well being through animal welfare, feed, growth agents, and antibiotics have yet to be fully explored and utilized.
THE SOLUTION
To combat the ongoing threat of antibiotic resistance, we need novel discovery pathways to identify natural antibiotic agents that protect human and animal health. We believe plants are underutilized natural renaissance for antibiotic discovery. BlooMD has developed a proprietary collection of plant extracts that are being tested against a range of bacterial and fungal pathogens.
