Additional Infrastructure to Deliver
Hemopurifier® Therapy
Hemopurifier® Therapy
• CRRT machines already located in hospitals
and clinics throughout the U.S.
and clinics throughout the U.S.
• Portable pump configurations
Mechanism of Action
Mannose
1. Separation of particles below
250nm from the circulatory
system
250nm from the circulatory
system
2. Immobilized lectin affinity agents
then selectively bind to unique
high mannose structures resident
on viral glycoproteins that coat
viral pathogens
