ABOUT THE COMPANY
MipSalus is a biotech company with leading-edge expertise in transforming Molecular Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) into a new class of medicines. MipSalus currently focuses on developing a breakthrough treatment of the rare and potentially invalidating disease Phenylketonuria (PKU) using phenylalanine-binding MIPs to block the uptake of dietary phenylalanine.
The name MipSalus is a combination of the abbreviation MIP – Molecular Imprinted Polymers – and Salus, the ancient Roman goddess of health and prosperity.
Recently, as a spin-off of the PKU drug project and using the Phe-binding MIPs, MipSalus has initiated development of a home sensor allowing PKU patients to monitor their disease and swiftly adjust food and medication.
