Biotech business Blis Technologies (NZSE: BLT) says it remains ahead of schedule to launch its first product on the New Zealand market after receiving its latest regulatory certification.

The Dunedin-based company has announced that the Ministry of Health has approved a Health Export and Free Sale Certificate for its Blis K12 Streptococcus salivarius lozenges.

"This certifies that Blis K12 Streptococcus salivarius lozenges are produced for human consumption according to the code of good manufacturing practice for the manufacturing and packaging of dietary supplements and contains ingredients that are freely available in New Zealand," the company says.

"This early achievement of a significant milestone, means that Blis Technologies remains ahead of schedule for the launch of its first product onto the New Zealand market, and for regulatory submissions in other markets."

The protein to be used in the lozenges is called Salivaricin B and is believed to prevent or control streptococcal throat infections.

In April Blis said it hoped to introduce the product to market within six months.
