Dr. Cooper will present information on the mechanisms of action of Active Leptospermum Honey, as well as her findings on activity against biofilms and the inability of organisms to select for resistance. Dr. Gethin will present clinical evidence derived from her randomized controlled study comparing the antimicrobial activity and wound healing effectiveness of Active Leptospermum Honey against a standard advanced wound care dressing, as well as evidence from her study on Active Leptospermum Honey's effect on pH modulation on chronic wounds.

The product has been shown to be effective in a variety of wounds and burns, and was recently the focus of a large-scale randomized controlled trial on leg ulcers.

The barrier technology was licensed from Quick-Med in Q1 of 2007 and is pending its initial FDA marketing clearance. DSC127 was licensed from The University of Southern California in Q4 of 2007 and is entering into a Phase II study, with anticipated initial patient enrollment to begin in Q3 of 2008.
