today announced the issuance of new U.S. patent for the use of Microcyn® Technology in the prevention and treatment of peritonitis. In this application, Microcyn® can be delivered to the peritoneal cavity intra-operatively, laproscopically or transabdominally; and can be administered to peritoneal tissue already affected by peritonitis or tissue at risk of developing this infection.    Hoji Alimi, founder and president of Oculus said: "The issuance of this U.S. patent for prevention and treatment of peritonitis strategically dovetails with our longer-term plan of securing drug approval from the FDA for the surgical use of Microcyn Technology. This is a significant market in which current standards simply don't provide patients with optimum protection. We believe Microcyn Technology will help reduce the incidence of infection, such as that associated with peritonitis and other abdominal procedures, and as such, will reduce healthcare costs and improve patient outcomes."
