SciBac is a biotechnology research company based in Burlingame, California, focused on developing live biotherapeutic products that address antibiotic-resistant diseases while supporting the microbiome. Its approach centers on modifying beneficial microorganisms to transfer useful traits, aiming to create therapies that act through multiple mechanisms to target specific diseases and promote faster recovery with a reduced risk of reinfection. The company’s initial product targets Clostridium difficile infection by suppressing colonization, neutralizing toxins, and directly killing the pathogen, thereby preserving the remaining microbiome. SciBac operates in the biotechnology research sector, with a small team pursuing its science and platform development to meet growing medical needs in antibiotic resistance. A notable recent development includes recognition of research support from NIH in 2019.
