About the Company
Northfield Laboratories, founded in 1985, is a leading developer of an
oxygen-carrying blood substitute. Its product, PolyHeme, is the only blood
substitute undergoing clinical trials that has been tested at large enough
dosages to be considered a substitute for acute blood loss in trauma and
surgical settings. As a result of the process used to manufacture the blood
substitute, essentially a solution of polymerized hemoglobin, PolyHeme has a
longer shelf life than blood, requires no cross matching and does not transmit
disease.
