Alginate Oligosaccharide Production

AlgiPharma’s OligoG technology is based on highly purified and defined oligosaccharides processed and isolated from the alginate polysaccharide extracted from the brown seaweed Laminaria hyperborea and manufactured according to GMP guidelines, ICH Q7 and ISO standards. Large scale land-based fermentation manufacturing processes are also in development.

Delivery Platform

AlgiPharma’s alginate oligosaccharides have been shown to:

  • Release stagnant mucus in the airway and intestinal mucosa
  • Restore intestinal transit times
  • Enhance the oral delivery and bioavailability of polypeptide therapeutics
  • Improve the stability and delivery of lipid-based nanoparticle (LNP) therapeutics
  • Disrupt established microbial biofilms in airways and infected wounds
  • Prevent new biofilm formation and inhibit microbial adherence to surfaces
  • Reduce microbial virulence factors
  • Inhibit fungal hyphae formation and prevent tissue invasion of fungal cells
  • Potentiate anti-bacterial and anti-fungal compounds

Our research also shows that alginate oligosaccharides do not induce microbial resistance.

API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient)

This unique active ingredient is highly water-soluble, with a negative charge density and an affinity for multivalent cations. The molecule is stable, non-toxic and bio-compatible.

Drug Conjugates

AlgiPharma’s alginate oligosaccharides can add functionality when conjugated with antimicrobials, reducing toxicity, and maintaining efficacy compared to the parent compound.
