About Growth factors:
Growth factors are proteins with multiple functions in the human body. Growth factors modulate immune responses and cell growth. Some growth factors are produced in the laboratory and used in biological therapy in extremely lucrative markets such as inflammatory diseases or skin care. However, synthetic production of growth factors is extremely expensive, which represents a major concern for product development.

Through an extensive research program, Advitech has mastered the ability to produce naturally milk derived growth factors at relatively lower cost than synthetic growth factors. The ability of Advitech to produce such growth factors opens up new market opportunities in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical markets.

About Wound Healing:
According to Espicom Business Intelligence Ltd., the global wound care market totalled $7.2 billion in 2006, with a 10% growth rate.  Growth factors based applications for wound healing represent more than 5% of the market, with an impressive 27% growth rate.
