Business Wire
Biomagnetics Diagnostics Corp., (PINK SHEETS:BMGP - News) a
developer of revolutionary diagnostic systems and technology for
HIV, hepatitis, tuberculosis, cholera and malaria detection, and
other innovative technologies, today announced the identification
of a second biomarker for development of a tuberculosis
assay. This is a significant milestone in the cooperative
research agreement that was signed between Los Alamos National
Laboratory and Biomagnetics, representing a major step in the
development of a new point-of-care diagnostic system. In parallel,
development of assays for two different tuberculosis biomarkers and
the Cholera toxin is currently in progress. In addition to the
first tuberculosis biomarker, assay development for a second
biomarker has also commenced.
Clayton Hardman, CEO of Biomagnetics commented, “The hand-held
version of the Integrated Optical Biosensor (“IOBS”), being
developed by BioMagnetics, is specifically designed to be field
deployable and ultraportable, allowing for the rapid detection of
various pathogens by relatively untrained personnel outside the
laboratory setting, at a lower cost than traditional diagnostic
technologies. We believe these devices hold the potential to
revolutionize disease detection, saving millions of lives in the
process. We are clearly honored to be working with the very
prestigious and highly qualified scientific staff at Los Alamos
National Laboratory.”
