OXIS INTERNATIONAL, INC. (Pink Sheets: OXIS, Paris: OXI) announced today that the Company has retained Quinn Emanuel Urquhart Oliver & Hedges (“Quinn Emanuel”) to enforce all patents related to the unique benefits of its potent antioxidant compound L-Ergothioneine (“ERGO”).
Mr. Tony Cataldo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Oxis, stated, “Oxis holds patents and patent applications on the benefits of ERGO as a significant combater of oxidative stress within the body. We have significant research that demonstrate ERGO’s highly beneficial effects on the reduction in oxidative stress and we intend to pursue opportunities in the consumer market and have begun test marketing of products and through the recent financing have the financial resources to scale to full production launch in the near future.”
