Pathogen Capture Technology (PCT)

Human pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi, bind to proteins and sugar chains on our cell surfaces to establish an infection.

Aquila’s proprietary PCT uses biomolecules that mimic these glycoproteins to bind to the protein spikes on pathogens, capturing and neutralising them. These strong covalent bonds are similar to Velcro®, a mechanism from which they cannot escape.

This technology is already being applied in the ABD Device and ProShield Mask Spray and our R&D teams continue to develop new products and applications.

01

ABD DEVICE

The ABD wipe (Anti Bioagent Decontamination Device) uses pathogen capture technology to remove 99.99% of pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), from human skin. It can be applied safely and comfortably to sensitive areas like around the eyes, nose and mouth.
02

USA FDA

The product is a US FDA registered Class I medical device that comes in the form of a decontamination wipe.
03

PROSHIELD MASK SPRAY

ProShield Mask Spray™ converts simple cloth masks into a highly protective face coverings while helping the environment. ProShield Mask Spray contains no alcohol or toxic chemicals. Acting as an invisible shield on the reusable face mask, it prevents pathogens from entering the human airways.

AQUILA GREEN SCIENCE

Along with nucleic acids and proteins, carbohydrates are essential molecular building blocks in all organisms. Carbohydrates (also called as glycans) are universally present on every cell and are essential for cell-cell communication. This critical role has allowed glycans to be important in many applications in biomedical sciences, material sciences, as well as in industries.

Some of the major applications of glycans and glycoproteins include, biopharmaceuticals, biomarker and diagnostic industries as well dairy and food industries. Glycan are also being used as natural and synthetic biomimics for preventative and/or therapeutic applications for chronic diseases, immunological disorders and for infectious diseases. Glycan based biomaterials are emerging as a novel class of designer molecules with broad range of applications for on-body and in-body applications.
