Company Profile for Enterologics, Inc.

--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Enterologics, Inc. (OTCBB:ELGO) is a biotechnology company developing probiotics as biologic drugs for specific gastrointestinal disease indications. Probiotics are live microorganisms, in most cases, bacteria, that are similar to or derived from beneficial microorganisms that are found in the human gut (e.g. for more information see Introduction to Probiotics). They are also called "friendly bacteria" or "good bacteria."

Despite growing evidence that probiotics have medicinal benefits, no product has been sufficiently tested and none have gained FDA approval. This has created an unfulfilled need which Enterologics seeks to fill while becoming the leader in the introduction of new and approved probiotic medical therapies.

On June 20, 2010 the company announced that it is acquiring all the shares of The BioBalance Corporation and its subsidiary BioBalance LLC from New York Health Care, Inc. With this purchase Enterologics is acquiring E. coli M17, or Probactrix®, a probiotic product being developed as a biologic drug under an active Investigational New Drug (IND) application for a pouchitis-related indication. The acquisition also includes BioBalance’s portfolio of intellectual property and regulatory filings. The transaction is scheduled to close no later than September 30, 2011.

Planned formal development of the E. coli M17 including cGMP production, manufacturing and testing will begin shortly after closing and after financing is in place.
