Microbiome feed-shift™: selective prebiotic oral ecology modulator
Microbiome Feed-Shift™ is a selective prebiotic system designed to modulate oral ecology by supporting non-malodorous bacteria, reducing volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) without killing bacteria. Ideal for daily use in toothpaste and lozenges.
Overview
Microbiome Feed-Shift™ is an innovative selective prebiotic substrate system developed to transform oral health care by modulating oral ecology. This technology aims to reduce volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which are primarily responsible for bad breath, by supporting non-malodorous commensal bacteria rather than eliminating harmful bacteria. This approach aligns with modern microbiome-friendly strategies, offering a non-aggressive solution suitable for daily oral hygiene products like toothpaste and lozenges.
Technical specifications
Core Technology:
- Utilizes defined saccharide/polyol substrates that selectively nourish beneficial oral bacteria.
- Operates through ecological competition to reduce VSC output, promoting a healthier oral microbiome.
- Designed to be compatible with taste, ensuring consumer acceptance and daily usability.
Applications:
- Daily-use oral care products such as toothpaste and lozenges.
- Potential expansion into other oral hygiene formats that benefit from microbiome modulation.
Technology readiness level
Microbiome Feed-Shift™ is currently at Technology Readiness Level 3, indicating that active research and development are ongoing. The next steps involve ecological screening, substrate selection, prototype development, and a 28-day pilot study to further validate its efficacy.
