The BioPrax Platform
How it targets and eliminates biofilm infections:
A needle is inserted through the skin until the system indicates physical contact with the metal implant
Simplistic touchscreen interface is used to initiate and monitor treatment
Low voltage energy is sent through the implant to create an electrochemical reaction that eliminates biofilms from the implant surface
Once treatment is complete, doctors will continue with the standard of care
