MolecuLight’s devices are revolutionising the way clinicians visualise bacteria in wounds, providing real-time, actionable insights that lead to more effective treatments and improved patient outcomes.
The company’s technology is particularly aligned with the outcomes of cellular and tissue-based products (CTPs), as demonstrated by a study that showed a 100% probability of CTP integration when MolecuLight indicates a bacteria-free wound bed.
The new funds will be used to expand MolecuLight’s reach across various care settings, including independent wound care clinics, hospital out-patient departments, podiatry practices and long-term care centres.
With the expansion, the company expects to assist more patients by providing healthcare professionals with the tools they need to identify and quantify bacteria that can impede wound healing.
