Medical Technology Stock Alert; PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB:PSID) Finalizes First-in-Class Development of a Fully Synthetic Glucose Sensing System, a Critical Component of an Artificial Pancreas
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - March 5, 2012 (Investorideas.com newswire) - PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB:PSID), a developer of medical technologies for diabetes management, announced today that it has finalized its first-in-class development of a fully synthetic glucose sensing system to measure glucose levels within the body for people with diabetes. PositiveID and its partner RECEPTORS LLC believe they are the first to develop a fully synthetic, stable, sensitive, selective sensing system that is responsive to glucose in human plasma, which is considered to be a critical step in the development of an artificial pancreas.
PositiveID's glucose sensing system is the mission-critical component of its GlucoChip(TM), glucose-sensing microchip for people with diabetes, and is based on PositiveID's Patent No. 7,125,382 for an "Embedded Bio-Sensor System." The Embedded Bio-Sensor System patent covers any bio-sensor system that utilizes radio frequency identification technology and includes a remote transponder in wireless communication with an implantable, passively-powered, on-chip transponder.
PositiveID previously announced it created and demonstrated a continuous glucose sensing system in a model blood plasma matrix, and has now advanced development of the sensing system to respond to glucose levels in human plasma. PositiveID also has a patent pending with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office covering its invention of the stable and reproducible, closed-cycle continuous glucose-sensing system. PositiveID now has five patents and patents pending surrounding the development of GlucoChip.
William J. Caragol, Chairman and CEO of PositiveID, stated, "The development of a fully implantable glucose sensor is one of the essential requirements for the successful development of an artificial pancreas. We believe that with the combined expertise of Receptors and our strong intellectual property portfolio that surrounds the development of our GlucoChip project, we are well positioned to play a potentially significant role in making an artificial pancreas a reality for people with type 1 diabetes."
More than 25 million children and adults in the U.S. have diabetes, or over 8 percent of the population, according to the 2011 National Diabetes Fact Sheet. The CDC predicts that nearly 30 percent of children born after the year 2000 will develop diabetes. The lifetime risk of developing diabetes for those born in the year 2000 is 35 percent. The total cost of diagnosed diabetes in the U.S. is estimated at $200 billion.
PositiveID also recently announced positive preliminary results from its biotransport research study relating to its GlucoChip. Preliminary results demonstrate that the membrane materials to be used with GlucoChip allow for successful movement of glucose from body fluids. PositiveID's first animal studies were designed to test the membrane materials that will be the interface between the glucose sensing device and the in vivo environment by evaluating the ability of glucose to pass through the membrane to the sensing device (glucose transport).

Biodefense Stocks to Watch in 2012; PositiveID (OTCBB:PSID) and Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC) Opportunities with BioWatch
New York, NY - February 24, 2012 - (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leader in research for independent investors presents an investor snapshot of Homeland Security and Biodefense stocks , PositiveIDCorporation (OTCBB: PSID) and Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC), two potentially qualified biodetector systems suppliers for BioWatch Gen-3.
The Department of Homeland Security Office of Procurement Operations anticipates soliciting final Phase II RFP for the first or second quarter of FY 2012.The Gen-3 detection system will be a fully autonomous network of biodetectors that will continuously monitor the air for biothreat agents.
In a recent interview with Investorideas.com. Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of PositiveIDCorporation (OTCBB: PSID) noted, "Our MicroFluidic Systems ("MFS") subsidiary, is a leader in biothreat detection technologies and molecular diagnostic systems, and developed its M-BAND technology under contract from DHS over the past eight years. We believe our M-BAND, a Microfluidics-based Bioagent Autonomous Networked Detector, is one of only two technologies that is compatible with DHS' procurement for Gen-3 of Biowatch, which has a total value of more than $3 billion over approximately five years, as described by the DHS in their draft RFP. This opportunity, relative to the provision of biodetectors and the renewables, represents a very significant opportunity for PositiveID. "
PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB: PSID) announced it will present its M-BAND (Microfluidics-based Bioagent Autonomous Networked Detector) system at the 10th Annual American Society for Microbiology ("ASM") Biodefense and Emerging Diseases Research Meeting, to be held February 26-29, 2012, in Washington, DC at the Omni Shoreham Hotel. PositiveID will jointly exhibit M-BAND with The Boeing Company and Hamilton Sundstrand.
Northrop Grumman's (NYSE: NOC) biodefense division will be a key player in Biowatch as it moves forward, with previous contracts announced back in 2010. Northrop delivered critical assay technology to DHS as part of the company's BioWatch Gen-3 contract .The assay represents the key technological component of Northrop Grumman's BioWatch Gen-3 system.
According to the company's press release, Northrop Grumman's Advanced Concepts & Technologies Division is providing its Next-Gen Automated Detection Systems (NG-ADS) for independent laboratory and field testing at military and national laboratories.
"Automating the bio-detection process in these next generation instruments will provide much earlier warning of a bio-terrorism attack," said Dave Tilles, vice president of homeland defense programs at Northrop Grumman. "It will operate 24 hours per day, 365 days per year, in select cities across the nation. Earlier warning will allow the nation's public health and safety officials to reduce exposure, distribute medication sooner and proactively manage the response to a bio-threat."
As the RFP for Biowatch moves forward in 2012, investors can follow the money flow from DHS as qualified biodetector systems are contracted and deployed.
