Antibodies: Nature's Most Powerful Defense

As we go about our daily lives, we are exposed to many pathogens.

Our immune system produces antibodies to protect us from viruses and bacteria. But sometimes these pathogens evade our antibody immunity and get us sick.

What if you could boost your immunity with targeted antibodies that fight for you?

Hatching Immunity

Antibodies called immunoglobulin Y (IgY) are naturally produced by chickens to protect them against viruses and bacteria. They are passed down from hens to their eggs to protect baby chicks while they develop their own immunity.

By immunizing chickens against specific viruses or bacteria, they will produce targeted antibodies that neutralize these pathogens.

Egg-cellent Protection

Besides baby chicks, these antibodies are effective in protecting humans too. They can be extracted from egg yolks and eaten to help us fight pathogens in our throat and gut.

Betty became fascinated with egg-derived antibodies after reading about research at Stanford Medicine on IgY antibodies for COVID-19 prevention.

She then decided to explore this idea as part of the Stanford Ignite entrepreneurship program.

Our team is a mix of PhD students and researchers with expertise in Materials Science, Immunology, and Neuroscience. We are excited to develop egg-derived antibodies as a convenient, science-backed way to boost immunity in everyday life.
