AvantGuard Awarded $2.65 Million in NIH Grants to Advance Next-Generation Antimicrobial Technologies

We tested AvantGuard’s antiseptic compound, polyvantoin chlorine, against some of the most feared pathogens in modern medicine: pan-resistant Candida auris, multidrug-resistant ESKAPE bacteria, and a comprehensive panel of dangerous fungi. The results revealed something remarkable. You might think that an antibiotic-resistant pathogen is somehow tougher and harder for any compound to kill. However, whether the pathogen was resistant or susceptible to a particular antibiotic,

We’re excited to share that Ted Eveleth recently joined Marcus Arredondo on the Scales of Success podcast. This series takes an honest look at what it really takes to build, grow, and sustain successful businesses—beyond the headlines and highlight reels. Ted was honored to contribute his story to this powerful conversation.

Despite aggressive infection control protocols, Candida auris continues to defy traditional disinfection strategies—especially on high-touch hospital surfaces. But a new class of chlorine-based disinfectants may offer a long-overdue breakthrough: Avantamine, a stabilized polymer chloramine, is proving effective where others fail. In this article, we explore why C. auris has become such a resilient and costly threat—and how a next-generation technology like Avantamine is engin

Each year, fungal infections affect up to 1 billion people worldwide. While many of these infections are mild, they can become...
