AmebaGone, Inc. operates in the biotechnology research sector, leveraging naturally occurring soil-dwelling amoebae (Dictyostelids) as biological agents to control bacteria and disrupt biofilms. The amoebae kill bacteria by consuming them and can break down biofilms, offering a biocontrol approach to persistent infections in agriculture, medicine, and industry.

Headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, the company is a small team focused on developing proprietary technologies to apply this method across sectors. Potential applications include reducing crop diseases such as fire blight in apples and soft rot in potatoes; sterilizing medical devices to protect against organisms like Staphylococcus epidermidis; treating wounds and infections caused by pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus, including MRSA; and safeguarding foods and food-processing equipment from E. coli, Salmonella enterica, and Listeria monocytogenes.
