Perfectus Biomed are delighted to announce that we have received funding from the National Biofilms Innovation Centre (NBIC) for a collaborative project with the University of Bath. The project will involve the commercialization of a burn wound biofilm model to provide a new service for pre-clinical research and testing in academia and industry.
Biofilm formation in burn wounds is associated with treatment failure, poor clinical outcomes and the development of chronic, non-healing wounds. Perfectus Biomed will work alongside the University of Bath to develop a UKAS-accredited pre-clinical model of burn wound infection that can support both early-stage and commercial development of new products to control biofilm formation in wounds.
