Introduction
The majority of our treatments for infectious diseases and cancer are natural products based and are either directly sourced from terrestrial plant and soil microbes or, at minimum, the prototype is of natural origin. Triton's focus is to utilize the vast resources of the oceans in the development of the next generation of pharmaceutical products. The structural and biological diversity of the ocean provides a wealth of novel drug leads or drug-like molecules for commercial development. Tapping into this resource, Triton is able to bring new innovation to the Pharmaceutical, Food Products and Biotechnology Industries with the production of marine derived fine chemicals and pharmaceutical products. In addition to its leads in preclinical development, Triton has an inventory of unique marine natural products available for purchase. Please contact us to learn more about how we can help you add diversity and novelty to your drug development pipelines.
Message from Dr. Mark T. Hamann
Chief Scientific Officer
"Triton is strategically positioned to provide novel solutions to the lagging development of effective treatments of both first and third world diseases. Marine natural products offer unprecedented diversity and opportunities for pharmaceuticals, as well as cosmetics and food products. Triton has assembled an exceptionally talented team of investigators with experience in marine natural products characterization, synthesis, microbial production and optimization. Triton scientists are working aggressively to provide better controls for cancer, depression, anxiety, Alzheimer’s, HIV-1, HCV and malaria, by exploring the unique drug producing organisms of the ocean."
