Microbix Biosystems Inc. focuses on developing and commercializing biological products and technologies through leveraging its Core Base Business of developing infectious disease antigens (virology) for sale to large diagnostic kit manufacturers.

Microbix has signed a Letter of Intent with Zydus Cadila, a global pharmaceutical company headquartered in India, to market the thrombolytic drug Urokinase in North American markets. According to Microbix, the estimated market size for Urokinase in the USA alone is expected to be about $400 million by 2020. This is a good start towards restoring investor confidence in MBX, but much remains to be done.
