The Mera Pharmaceuticals VisionThe Mera Pharmaceuticals vision is to utilize our patented technology and our proprietary systems to develop products from plant sources that will improve the health and well being of people throughout the world. Our emphasis is on aquatic microbial plants, small but highly evolved organisms that generate a vast array of complex and unique organic molecules that may offer benefits for humans, either as nutritional supplements “nutraceuticals”) or as pharmaceuticals. We also have experience working with larger organisms such as seaweeds. Our knowledge of these plants and our technology for cultivating them position Mera to take advantage of a mostly untapped resource.Mera’s Platform TechnologyMera Pharmaceuticals Inc. is a global leader in “photobioreactor” technology, a patented system that combines light, plants and nutrients in a manner that produces highly efficient growth under tightly controlled conditions. Mera’s large-scale photobioreactors, literally hundreds of times larger than their experimental predecessors, are a proven "platform" technology that unlocks the commercial potential of photosynthetic aquatic microbial plants - 30,000 species of microalgae that have remained almost entirely unexplored and unexploited, despite their acknowledged potential as a source for valuable products. The terrestrial counterparts of these plants, bacteria and yeast, support multi-billion dollar industries when grown in industrial fermenters, bioreactors without light.Microalgae and their productsMicroalgae offer tremendous potential for commercialization because they
