Lifecore Biomedical hopes to help bodies plump up, smooth out, and keep moving. Lifecore's hyaluronan division makes products using hyaluronan, a natural lubricating compound found in animal and human connective tissues. The products are used in cataract surgeries, bone grafting, pain treatments for osteoarthritis, and veterinary orthopedics. Hyaluronan is also being tapped for use in cosmetic procedures as a dermal filler (to smooth out wrinkles). Lifecore has supply agreements with Alcon to use its hyaluronan solution in cataract surgery products. In 2008 the firm was taken private by Warburg Pincus.
