Andira’s Founder and CEO, Dr. Dana Lambert says, “Andira has dramatically improved the antimicrobial power of silver – an agent that is currently used worldwide as a healthcare standard for infection control. Matrix3™ is a synergistic silver-based technology that provides over 1,000,000 times better antibacterial performance than conventional silver. Having Mr. Primer join Andira as lead commercial advisor validates the importance and potential of Matrix3™ technology for improving infection control in healthcare settings. Benefiting from Mr. Primer’s expertise and strategic insights, we are well-positioned to maximize market success and make substantial advancements in global health.”

Mr. Primer says, “Matrix3™ is an incredible advancement in infection control technology with potential to replace the most highly utilized silver products in healthcare. Silver wound dressings are currently a $1 billion USD global market. I look forward to helping advance commercialization of this revolutionary product.”

Matrix3™ is the world’s first broad-spectrum triple-synergy antibiotic for improved infection control. The technology incorporates silver, a standard infection control agent, and significantly improves the antibacterial effect through synergistic amplification. Matrix3™ promises to provide much needed protection against healthcare-associated infections across many commercial applications, including medical devices, wound dressings, surface coatings, and topically applied drugs.

Andira Pharmaceuticals is committed to commercializing Matrix3™ as the leading infection control solution worldwide. Matrix3™ Shield, Andira’s product line for surgical site infection, is positioned for market approval in 2026.
