About Recce Ltd
Recce Ltd (ASX: RCE) is a world-leader in synthetic-polymer antibiotics. The RECCE® antibiotics have
been synthesized by an extremely economic method.
RECCE® antibiotics have shown in laboratory tests that they have continued activity against bacteria,
including superbugs, even after repeated use.
Recce is positioned to achieve milestones in both pre-clinical trials for FDA purposes, and the
development of the manufacture of RECCE® 327 antibiotic.
The discovery of RECCE® 327’s capabilities against cancer (as well as bacteria-superbugs) has greatly
increased the value of the Company’s technology, especially in view of synergism between the anticancer and antibiotic properties.
Recce has granted patents in Australia, United States, Europe, Japan and China – giving it legal
monopolies and potential financial returns from manufacture and distribution in some 80% of the world’s
pharmaceutical markets.
