OxB Corporation is a Louisiana Company
headquartered in Baton Rouge. OxB Corporation holds a
license agreement from Louisiana State University for the
worldwide rights to commercialize an oxidative technology
developed by scientists at LSU Agricultural Center.
The technology is a ?super oxidizer?, suitable for a wide
range of applications. Its oxidative power makes it a superior
contact biocide, capable of rapidly destroying all forms of
microorganisms. OxB Corporation is focused on commercializing
this biocide under the name OxB Sterilant and OxB Biocide.
Because OxB Biocide is extremely effective, easy to handle and
the ingredients have a long history of safety to human health
and the environment, the product is in a position to
revolutionize the antimicrobial industry.
The product can be used in applications including operating room sterilization, other nosocomial uses, food processing, consumer products and other applications where conventional biocides are used. Discussions are underway with the EPA on anthrax
decontamination; with the US Army on its use as a lightweight
method for effective sterilization of surfaces and equipment
in front line surgical units; and with the food processing
industry on bacteria abatement. As a prerequisite to
introducing OxB Biocide into commerce, the company must
complete the regulatory processes required by US law and
administered by agencies such as the EPA, FDA, and USDA.

MISSION
STATEMENT
The mission of OxB Corporation is to expedite the availability
of OxB Biocide to the public as a sanitizer, disinfectant, and
a sterilant at an affordable cost to industry, institutions
and the public. OxB Corporation feels an obligation to its
stockholders and to the public to expedite the regulatory
process in accurate, clear and convincing terms to open the
way for use of the product in markets critical to health and
safety.
BACKGROUND
Biocidal compositions capable of effectively destroying
microorganisms are normally harmful to human health. Either
the compositions developed are too toxic to humans or other
life forms, which are not the intended target; to the
environment; or the compositions are not sufficiently stable
for storage and use under practical or commercial conditions.
Most biocidal compositions are also ineffective against
organisms in bio-films and microorganisms in spore form (e.g.
Bacillus anthracis, a potential bio-weapon of terrorist).
The term biocide is a general term for a material that kills
microorganisms. The classifications of biocides in order of
their effectiveness are: 1) sterilant 2) disinfectant and 3)
sanitizer. Few products, other than OxB can safely meet the
requirements of the most effective classification, sterilant.
PATENT
The patent (US 6,866,870) describes a composition and the
method of formation of a composition from a peroxide and a
hypochlorite. Supplemental patents either have issued or are
pending in the major worldwide markets. |
