Inspired by nature, these small molecules have been shown to be effective against Ebola, pan-coronavirus, pan-Influenza A (avian flu, swine flu, and human flu). The compounds are highly potent in destroying not just viruses, but also all tested bacteria, fungi and biofilms - often with a single molecule, while safely avoiding healthy cells. This “One Drug for Many Bugs” technology has been shown to be well-tolerated in human tissues in vitro, and in multiple animal studies, are shelf-stable and do not require a cold-chain. The compounds imitate key components of the immune system, humanity’s greatest asset in fighting disease. Maxwell’s technology is protected by numerous granted and pending patents and is led by a world-class team of scientists, military veterans, and experienced life science executives.
