A MISSION WITH A PASSION

Echinoderms are some of the most abundant multi- cellular animals in the marine world. They possess a unique connective tissue (Mutable Collagenous Tissues, MCT) that can be used as an innovative source of collagen. They additionally produce other by-products with special properties that open the door to a variety of applications. Through our strategic scientific partnerships, ME-Bio has completed several successful R&D projects, which include production of high-purity echinoderm-derived collagen, a collagen-based cosmetic line for scar management and facial rejuvenation, an echinoderm-based immune booster, prostate health supplements, and a wound management medical device. Some such projects, among others, are ready to be manufactured in an industrial scale.
