MARINOMED BIOTECH AG

Within our second online event on 22 October 2020 Dr. Andreas Grassauer, CEO of MARINOMED BIOTECH AG informed us on activities of his company - one of the leading Austrian companies in pharmaceutical research and development.



MARINOMED focuses on the development of innovative products based on patent-protected technology platforms in the field of respiratory and ophthalmological diseases. The Marinosolv® technology platform increases the efficacy of hardly soluble compounds for the treatment of sensitive tissues such as the eyes and nose.
The Carragelose® platform comprises innovative patent-protected products targeting viral infections of the respiratory tract. Carragelose® directly binds to repiratory
viruses and creates a protective layer and therefore prohibits infection by viruses. It blocks the virus from attaching the cells. This ability has become very interesting due
to the actual pandemia. Carrageloses reduces SARS-CoV-2 virus replication by more than 99,99%. Carragelose® is used in nasal sprays, throat sprays and lozenges, which are sold via international partners in over 40 countries worldwide.
