Kibow Biotech is winner of a 2014 BIO International Convention "Buzz of BIO Award," and is the first biotechnology company specializing exclusively in dietary supplement products to receive the honor during BIO's 29-year history. BIO is the world's largest trade association, representing biotechnology companies, academic institutions, state biotechnology centers and related organizations across the U.S. and more than 30 other nations. BIO member companies are involved in the R&D of innovative healthcare, agricultural, industrial and environmental biotechnology products.

Natarajan Ranganathan, Kibow Biotech's co-founder and chief R&D scientist, said, "The decade of research efforts on the concept of balancing the Gut Microbiome with probiotics (beneficial health impacting microbes) is finally gaining more recognition." He also added that a scientific basis and rationale for "a shift from Human Genome to Gut Microbiome" has been established only recently, and the process of using it to address various healthcare problems is just beginning.

Established in 1997, Kibow Biotech is a wellness company with scientific and R&D experience in probiotic-based and other dietary supplements. Kibow Biotech provides natural solutions for customers hoping to improve their quality of life. Scientifically and clinically-validated, Kibow's wellness products provide customers with safe and effective alternatives they can trust: Renadyl, a probiotic for kidney health; Kibow Flora, a potent probiotic formulation for digestive and immune health; Kibow Fortis, a multi prebiotic fiber supplement for digestive health, weight control and glucose balance; and Azodyl, the natural solution for dogs and cats with kidney failure.

Kibow Biotech is looking to partner with a major international pharmaceutical or biotech company to advance its presence.
