More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Biopure gives new meaning to blood work. The company's products are designed to deliver oxygen to cells via the bloodstream. Its Hemopure, for humans, and Oxyglobin, for animals, are made of purified and processed cow blood, can be stored at room temperature for up to 30 months, do not require blood typing, and release more oxygen to tissues than a blood transfusion. Oxyglobin sales represent almost all of the company's revenues. Biopure is awaiting regulatory approval for Hemopure in several countries, which it hopes to market as an adjunct to red blood cell transfusions and as a therapeutic for patients suffering from acute blood loss or anemia, as well as patients who have had a stroke or heart attack.
