Executive Summary
HemCon has licensed exclusive global rights from the Institute of Technology Sligo, Ireland, for its controlled-release hydrogen peroxide technology. Portland, Oregon-based HemCon plans to research, develop, manufacture and market the technology, which has broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiseptic properties. It can be used in wound and oral care, and has shown promise in early studies of fungal nail infection, which HemCon says has a global market of around $4bn.
