| Liquidity Disclosure [Policy Text Block] | Going Concern Since its spin-off from Integrated BioPharma, Inc. in August 2008, the Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $37.5 million, and it had cash used in operating activities of $4.8 million and $6.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company has historically financed its activities through the sale of common stock and warrants. Through June 30, 2013, the Company has dedicated most of its financial resources to investing in its iBioLaunch™ and iBioModulator™ platforms, advancing its intellectual property, and general and administrative activities. Cash on hand as of June 30, 2013 of $4.4 million, considering the effects of the Settlement Agreement completed in September 2013, is expected to support the Company’s activities through the third quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014. See Note 17 - Subsequent Events for additional information. The history of significant losses, the negative cash flow from operations, the limited cash resources currently on hand and the dependence by the Company on its ability - about which there can be no certainty - to obtain additional financing to fund its operations after the current cash resources are exhausted raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company plans to fund its future business operations using cash on hand, through proceeds from the sale of additional equity or other securities and through proceeds realized in connection with license and collaboration arrangements. The Company cannot be certain that such funding will be available on favorable terms, or available at all. To the extent that the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders may experience significant dilution. If the Company is unable to raise funds when required or on favorable terms, it may have to: a) significantly delay, scale back, or discontinue the product application and/or commercialization of its proprietary technologies; b) seek collaborators for its technology and product candidates on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; c) relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates, or products that it would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize; or d) possibly cease operations. See Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of risks. |

| Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Reclassifications
Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Prepaid expenses and other current assets have been combined for presentation in the accompanying balance sheets and statements of cash flows. Depreciation and amortization expenses have been separated in the accompanying statements of cash flows. Share-based compensation expenses have been combined in the accompanying statements of cash flows. |
|
| Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include the valuation of intellectual property, legal and contractual contingencies, a warrant derivative liability and share-based compensation. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from these estimates. |
|
| Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. |
|
| Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for intangible assets at their historical cost and records amortization utilizing the straight-line method based upon their estimated useful lives. Patents are amortized over a period of ten years and other intellectual property is amortized over a period from 18 to 23 years. The Company reviews the carrying value of its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. Evaluating for impairment requires judgment, and recoverability is assessed by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows of the assets over the remaining useful life to the carrying amount. Impairments, if any, are based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There were no impairment charges for the year ended June 30, 2013. For the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $0.1 million which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Statements of Operations. |
|
| Derivatives, Reporting of Derivative Activity [Policy Text Block] | Derivative Instruments
The Company does not use derivative instruments in its ordinary course of business. Some of the Company’s outstanding warrants contain an anti-dilution provision which qualifies as an embedded derivative and must be accounted for separately as a derivative liability. This liability is recognized on the balance sheet at fair value each reporting period, and changes in the fair value are charged to other income or expense, as appropriate, and reflected in the current period earnings. |
|
| Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. |
|
| Research, Development, and Computer Software, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Research and Development Costs
All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses consist primarily of payments to third-party contractual service providers and internal personnel costs. |
|
| Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block] | Share-based Compensation
The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based payment transactions at fair value. Compensation cost, measured by the fair value of the equity instruments issued, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized in the financial statements as the respective awards are earned over the performance period. The Company uses historical data to estimate forfeiture rates. The impact that share-based payment awards will have on the Company’s results of operations is a function of the number of shares awarded, the trading price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant or modification, and the vesting schedule. Furthermore, the application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model employs weighted-average assumptions for expected volatility of the Company’s stock, expected term until exercise of the options, the risk-free interest rate, and dividends, if any, to determine fair value. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock; the expected term until exercise represents the weighted-average period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and the Company’s historical exercise patterns; and the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option. The Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying any dividends for the foreseeable future, so the dividend yield is assumed to be zero. |
|
| Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized. The effect of a change in tax rates or laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of the rate change. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized from operations. Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized only if it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to sustain a position taken on an income tax return. The Company has no liability for uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2013 and 2012. Interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized as income tax expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any significant interest expense recognized during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. |
