SkinBio
Technology

SkinBioTherapeutics uses lysates (extracts) of probiotic bacteria that have been shown to:

  • Increase the skins barrier integrity by enhancing the formation of multi-protein complexes called ‘tight junctions’. Tight junctions seal the space between adjacent gut cells to prevent the passage of toxins, molecules and ions through these spaces
  • Protect the Skin from infection by outcompeting harmful pathogens
  • Increase the rate of Skin healing in response to injury

THE HUMAN
Microbiome

  • The human body has around 10X more bacteria within it, and on it than human cells
  • The collective name for all the genes in all the bacteria is ‘the microbiome’
  • The microbiome consists of around 1000,000 genes – humans have around 23,000
  • The microbiome has huge potential to change how the body functions
