VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - April 01, 2014) - Sirona Biochem Corp. (TSX-VENTURE: SBM.V) (OTCQX: SRBCF) (FRANKFURT: ZSB) is pleased to announce that a new patent application has been deposited by its subsidiary TFChem for a second generation of glycoprotein compounds. The first target marketplace for this technology will be anti-aging cosmetics. Future applications may include consumer packaged goods and prescription pharmaceuticals.

The Anti-Aging Project:

In the late 1960s Professor Arthur DeVries discovered that Antarctic fish were able to survive sub-zero temperatures under the polar icecaps thanks to glycoproteins that protect their cells.

Sirona and its subsidiary TFChem have successfully synthesized compounds derived from these naturally occurring glycoproteins and created an anti-aging technology intended to protect people's skin not just from cold temperatures but UV damage, oxidative stress and other catalysts of visible aging.

This project is also being championed by Jacques Cousteau's son and grandson, Jean-Michel and Fabien Cousteau, who will lend their names and global brand to support the commercialization of this new anti-aging cosmetic technology.
