Nova BioGenetics

Nova BioGenetics was a biotechnology company based in Atlanta, Georgia, that specialized in the development of advanced antimicrobial technologies. The company's core business centered on its proprietary BioShield technology, which utilized water-stabilized organosilane compounds to provide long-lasting antimicrobial protection on both skin and various surfaces. Publicly traded under the symbol NVBG, the company targeted applications in healthcare, industrial, and consumer markets to prevent the spread of bacteria, fungi, and algae. Its product portfolio included antimicrobial hand gels and surface treatments that were marketed for their durable, non-leaching properties. Although active in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the company eventually ceased operations, and its intellectual property was transitioned to other entities.
