iNtRON Biotechnology, Inc., with its establishment in 1999, stands as a pioneering South Korean biopharmaceutical entity engaged in the development of innovative medical solutions aimed at the prevention and treatment of various human diseases on a global scale. The company has carved a niche in leveraging bacteriophage technology and endolysin-based therapeutics, marking a significant footprint in the fight against bacterial infections resistant to traditional antibiotics. Headquartered in Seongnam-si, South Korea, iNtRON is dedicated to harnessing the potential of bacteriophages and endolysins to address the urgent need for novel antimicrobial therapies, reflecting its commitment to advancing healthcare through biotechnological innovation.
iNtRON Biotechnology excels in the development of bacteriophage-based products, which are natural viruses targeting specific bacteria. These products offer a promising alternative to traditional antibiotics, especially in treating antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
