AmebaGone uses naturally occurring, soil-dwelling amoebae (Dictyostelids) as drugs and disinfectants in agriculture, medicine, and industry. The amoebae kill bacteria, antibiotic-resistant or not, by consuming them as their food source. Additionally, the amoebae can break down biofilms and consume the bacteria within. Biofilms pose significant problems for agriculture, medicine, and industry because conventional antimicrobials and disinfectants have little to no effect against them. AmebaGone, Inc. is developing proprietary technologies that use a novel biocontrol method to destroy persistent bacterial infections.
