I've done some research into this stock over the last few days and found the info below interesting. I'll leave the commentary of what this means for a valuation or buy/sell to others as I find that aspect of understanding a stock harder than anything else!
What is Xbio?
From patents and ingredient lists on their website and FDA listings it's a combination of the following:
-1. Surfactant which in the current products is benzalkonium chloride (BZK), the same active ingredient and concentration used as a disinfectant in other wound gels, disinfectant wipes and diluted household disinfectants like 'pine o cleen'.
-2. A weak organic acid like citric acid or acetic acid (vinegar), both have been shown effective for biofilm and used for a long time in burns and other applications due to biofilm activity.
-3. Alot of buffer, usually sodium acetate or sodium citrate to keep the pH stable.
FDA approvals
The FDA approvals don't seem to relate to any biofilm efficacy or validation of a novel technology. The products might be amazing but I don't think the FDA have assessed this:
- The wound gel BlastX FDA approval is based on the description that the benzalkonium chloride is an antimicrobial agent so it's the same as the predicate product, Anasept antimicrobial gel.
- The SSI wash Bactisure FDA approval is based on being similar to Prontosan and removing bugs with mechanical action of irrigation.
Interesting to watch!
