Mende Biotech Ltd.

Mende Biotech Ltd. Mende Biotech Ltd is committed to research and development of natural, active compounds based on New Our product Totarol™ came from this work.

Commercialization of new, natural actives from New Zealand’s unique ecological resources. To make this happen requires a great understanding in many fields, for example, the science, marketing, registration and sustainable supply of Totarol to world markets. I have an environmental science and conservation background from being a Senior Ranger for the Department of Conservation based at Mount Bruc

e Wildlife Centre for many years. Finding a passion for sustainability in New Zealand's wildlife and horticulture, which reflects through Mende Biotech and its core values. I have set up land management projects over the years establishing plantations dealing with research and development programs, showing the development of New Zealand’s plants, for medicines and oils. This will help promote better land and forest management, and planting of our native plants. Totarol™ is a naturally occurring plant extract against potent anti-bacterial activity in both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. Totarol™ also has potent anti-oxidant properties. Totarol™ is active against acne and tooth decay bacteria, and is one of the rare phytochemicals active against penicillin and methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Our focus with Totarol™ now is developing finished products in animal and human health where Totarol™ has proven to be a very effective replacement to antibiotics. The most abundant source of Totarol™ is the heartwood of the New Zealand Totara tree. Mende Biotech Ltd is the only commercial supplier of Totarol™ to manufacturers of natural products.

Mende Biotech has closed after decades of hard work developing Totarol. The patent will finish in the next 12 months and I am looking for the market opening up. Happy to help any company wanting to do this.

Totara leaf testing
We have been doing some interesting work with the totara leaf; using steam distillation, we did get a low yield oil. The tone of this oil is quite strong and would be from the three key compounds extracted.
The main compounds found in the leaf consisted of terpenes Pinene, Sabinene, and Caryophyllene; Caryophyllene found in cannabis and Pinene also having cannabis-related benefits. We also found with these compounds; you would get a good level of bioactive benefits.
No Totarol present, but that was expected but we will need to do a supercritical extracted trials next year and see what comes out of that, hopefully, Ferruginol a Totarol related compounds which should be in the leaf.
I don’t know about shewing totarol left but could have benefits in a poultice!

Here we have an article from 2016, a recap of the future of Mende Biotech and Totarol.
We are still striving for great things in this industry and have created not just a very unique and universal compound but a marketable product that people can get excited about.

A company based in Wairarapa is at the forefront of research into alternatives to antibiotic treatment.

Any antibiotic exposed to bacteria allows them to develop a resistance to it over time, and in some cases very quickly indeed - here’s the proof!

The good news is that Totarol™ is a new type of antimicrobial – it’s natural, it’s extracted from the native Totara tree of New Zealand and is free from any residues. Scientists believe that because the extract is completely insoluble in water, this should make it less prone to bacteria being able to build up a resistance to it. Totarol™ also has a mode-of-action that is different to many classes of antibiotic currently in use.

An ambitious project with backing from the Provincial Growth Fund aims to create a sustainable tōtara timber industry in Northland.

What is Totarol? We have another brief video showing why Totarol is so great.

We have spent 18 years developing a compound that has a large variety of uses in the animal, cosmetic and medical world. Totarol has the ability to reduce the use of penicillins being used and in a lot of trials be more effective.
