Meat Vitalisation Technology
|
The following outlines information relevant to the development
pipeline for our
Meat Vitalisation Technology. For a more general overview of the
technology and its applications, please

Product Concepts
Our
meat vitalisation technology will allow for the production of
the world's healthiest, most naturally flavoursome and most nutritious fresh, deli style and
marinated meat products ever to be made available. The end products
can also be used for pre-packaged meal type products.
We are not only able to produce novel products but we can also utilise our technology to improve upon many different meat products
that are already currently on the market (in that they can now be
produced to be more naturally flavoursome and far more nutritionally
superior).
With the growing trend in raw meat consumption, it is important to note
that our raw meat products are the only type of raw meat
products that are truly
suitable for human consumption. Not only are our raw products
much more naturally flavoursome than completely unprocessed raw meat but they
are also far more bioactive and bioavailable – thus, the nutrients
are fully unlocked (including vital enzymes) therefore allowing for
the proper digestion and general use by the human body.
Our processed products will also produce a far more superior cooked meat. Not only
is the meat more tender and flavoursome but it is also more nutritious,
easier to digest and less susceptible to nutritional damage by many
forms of cooking processes than what regular non-vitalised meat is.
We are also looking to try infusing herbs, spices and other flavourings into
the meat products using much the same process and principles as currently being utilised
for our main products.
Packaging
Our packaged fresh meat products require specific substances to be
used as well as a specific type of
material to aid in the processing method. For best results, the
substances must be placed directly onto the meat whilst the
material must either line the walls of whatever the meat is contained in
or be placed directly on the meat itself.
However, at present we are using a mock material that is only really
suitable for our experimental purposes.
As such, we are seeking to develop a more suitable commercial material and design
various packaging products that will have this material built into
their walls and surfaces.
The packaging products we are
proposing include plastic rolls and plastic trays, both of which
will be lined
with the required material.
Because the substances we use work best when applied directly to the
meat, it is also possible that we might be able to incorporate these
substances directly into the plastic rolls. This way, customers can
choose whether or not they want vitalised meat and, then, once they
have selected the portions of meat that they want their butcher can
simply roll the meat up for them in the plastic medium. It is
important to note that this method
will also essentially do exactly the same job as meat that is prepacked in the
cryogenic packaging containers you commonly see in supermarkets and
the like.
Once patent protected, we will then be able to also sell these
packaging products directly to butcheries and meat packaging plants.
Therapeutic Applications
Due to the ease of digestion of our products, it is believed that our
vitalised meat products will also serve to help with various
digestion related illnesses and general bodily dysfunction.
As such, it is envisaged that our products will have major
therapeutic benefits in relation to various
gastrointestinal/nutritional conditions.
The types of conditions we believe our products will help include those such as:
Gastrointestinal
Tuberculosis; HIV related malabsorption; Cystic Fibrosis; Pancreatitis;
Pancreatic Cancer (and other types of cancers); Crohn's Disease;
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS); Diverticular Disease and Dyspepsia.
It is envisaged that the eventual successful outcomes of clinical trials
will help allow us to effectively market many of our products to
hospitals, nursing homes and so on.
Intellectual Property Protection
At present no patents or provisional applications have been filed.
However, all patent protectable intellectual property is owned solely by
BC Biogenics Pty Ltd.
Furthermore, we have conducted extensive research in the quest to
develop what we have established and in this process we have not been
able to find any patents or publications that give definitive details to the same
extent or matching of what we have established.
Overview Of The Opportunity
Initially and most predominantly we are seeking
industry partners and others to
help develop the packaging products, as they will add much value to both
the patent and market positions for these products and their
technology base.
We will then be seeking to file patents in target countries around the world (such as
Australia, USA, UK, Europe, India, Japan, China and so on).
Once all of this has been completed we will then be looking to seek out, negotiate and secure licensing
contracts with various companies based on geographical locations and
the ability of each company to be able to adequately manufacture and
market any or all relevant food and packaging products.
Where required and/or where approached by investors looking to do so
we will set up our own manufacturing and distribution.
We are also seeking to explore at some stage in the near
future a potential shelf life
extension method for the straight raw products. If we can increase
shelf life by as much as 4 days or more this will add much value to
our products. This project will either be
funded by investors or by income generated from royalties and other
operating sources.
Other possible processing methods that might be
able to be developed and included to produce various other end products
will also be explored at various stages. The inclusion of these methods and
processes should also be of great assistance in developing a more
extensive and profitable intellectual property and patenting strategy.
Approximated Costs
Primary:
Development of packaging concepts: $10-20,000
Patent and general IP strategy development: $20-30,000
National & international filing of primary platform patents: $2,500,000
Secondary:
Further strategy development and implementation: $40-60,000
Implementation of initial licensing and/or joint venture strategies: $150,000
Development of deli and packaged meal products: $80-120,000
We are also open to
industry partners and others who would like to
establish full scale operations in various geographical locations.
Furthermore, we are also open to
industry partners and others who would
like to conduct the clinical trials discussed and therefore generate
a return from the markets this will help to serve.
Further Discussion & Negotiation
We are actively seeking
industry partners and others to help us reach the stage of file patents and to
develop and implement a licensing plan for this technology.
We are also open to discussion with
industry partners and others to help us further
develop and commercialise the various applications for this
technology.
If you would be interested in exploring a potential arrangement with us and this project, documentation
outlining the technological intellectual property in question can be
provided upon the signing of a confidentiality agreement.
Product samples can also be provided upon request.
If you would like to discuss a partnering or other opportunity
with us please feel free to
contact us.
