Data Always Wins: BioXclude's Antimicrobial Properties Unlike Any Other
It pleases me to share exciting new scientific research comparing amnion-chorion membrane (ACM) products BioXclude® (Snoasis Medical), AlloGuide™ GF (ACE Surgical) and AmnioExcite™ (Salvin Dental) in a well-established bacterial inhibition assay that evaluates ability to prevent the growth of Streptococcus gordonii, a pathogenic strain of bacteria associated with periodontal disease.
Comparisons of BioXclude, AlloGuide GF, and AmnioExcite
Agar growth plates seeded with bacteria form a visible bacterial lawn on the surface of the plate. Each quadrant receives a different ACM product or collagen membrane. Where growth of the bacteria is inhibited, a clear zone of inhibition can be observed where the bacterial lawn is absent. Observed results demonstrate the ability for BioXclude to inhibit bacteria far exceeds the competition.

A Picture Is Worth 1,000 Words
A significant zone of bacteria inhibition around the BioXclude discs is observed at both normal atmospheric conditions (plates on left) and an anaerobic environment (plates on right) after 48 hours. Results indicate the beneficial effect of the patent-protected process used to manufacture BioXclude and underscore differences in these products. VIEW POSTER PRESENTATION.
Data Always Wins!
My father, Andy Tofe, Ph.D., always told me growing up that “data always wins.” Yes, the competition seeks to confuse you. Yes, they reference our research. Yes, they claim to be the same. The reality is that there is no substitute for BioXclude optimized amnion-chorion membrane. Thank you! Snoasis Medical continues to grow at an astounding rate and we appreciate your support.
Warm Regards,
