“UV Flu Technologies, Inc. is pleased to announce that in response to interest from the marketplace, the company intends to rapidly roll out the development of a residential sector air purifier offering features specifically designed for the residential marketplace. The new unit will be designated UV-200 and will be designed with the needs of the health-conscious homeowner in mind.



"Our current UV-400 air purifier sets a very high standard, and is unique in the marketplace, but was primarily conceived for the demands of the commercial marketplace," said Jack Lennon, President of UV Flu Technologies. "Our UV-400 kills airborne bacteria in larger spaces up to 700-900 sq. feet, whereas typical HEPA filter units generally cover a space from 100-200 sq. feet. Our unit keeps on killing contaminants long after the filter units have lost their efficacy as they are not dependent on changing, or washing filters continuously."

Investorideas.com - Biotech/Pharma Stock News; BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPAX) Presents LibiGel® Clinical Study Update at North American Menopause Society Meeting

Investorideas.com - Biotech/Pharma Stock News; BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPAX) Presents LibiGel® Clinical Study Update at North American Menopause Society Meeting

Adjudicated Cardiovascular Events Continue to Be Lower Than Expected

LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill. - October 12, 2010 (Investorideas.com newswire) BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPAX) presented a LibiGel clinical study update at the 21st Annual Meeting of The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) on October 8, 2010, with more than 1,000 experts and practitioners in menopause and women's health in attendance.

Michael Snabes, MD, PhD, BioSante's senior vice president of medical affairs, presented an update entitled, "LibiGel® (testosterone gel) Safety Study Continues with a Low Rate of Cardiovascular and Breast Cancer Events." LibiGel is in development for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction (FSD), specifically, hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in menopausal women, for which there is currently no FDA approved product. BioSante anticipates the submission of a new drug application (NDA) for LibiGel in 2011.
Dr. Snabes presented data, based on approximately 2,300 women in the safety study for an average of approximately 10.5 months each, showing there have been only 14 adjudicated cardiovascular (CV) events, a rate of approximately 0.65 percent, and only seven diagnoses of breast cancer, a rate of approximately 0.32 percent. "If testosterone increased CV disease, we would expect to see a higher CV event rate, especially since the study subjects are at the higher end of cardiovascular risk for the intended treatment population. Based on the safety seen to date, we believe that LibiGel will be the first product approved by the FDA to treat HSDD in menopausal women, also referred to as FSD," stated Dr. Snabes.

In addition, BioSante sponsored a symposium entitled, "Sexual Quality of Life with Aging." The moderator of the symposium was Steven R. Goldstein, MD, FACOD, CCD, NCMP, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, New York University School of Medicine and the next president of NAMS. Jan L. Shifren, MD, NCMP, Associate Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology, & Reproductive Biology at Harvard Medical School, and Director of the Menopause Program at Massachusetts General Hospital spoke on the "Prevalence of Sexual Function & Distress Across the Lifespan for Women." Sheryl A. Kingsberg, PhD, Division Chief, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Behavior Medicine at the University Hospitals Case Medical Center, and Professor, Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio covered the topic entitled, "Treatment Options for Postmenopausal Women With Sexual Dysfunction."

Biotech News; UV Flu Technologies (OTC.BB:UVFT) Announces Development of Residential Market Bacteria Killing Indoor Air Purifier to Be Based on Laboratory Proven Design

Smaller Home Unit to Deliver Health Benefits Based on Success of Commercial Grade UV-400

Visit this company: http://www.uvflutech.com/

CENTERVILLE, MA – October 5, 2010 (Investorideas.com Newswire) - UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTC.BB:UVFT) is pleased to announce that in response to interest from the marketplace, the company intends to rapidly roll out the development of a residential sector air purifier offering features specifically designed for the residential marketplace. The new unit will be designated UV-200 and will be designed with the needs of the health-conscious homeowner in mind.







(OTCBB: AQUM)"Our current UV-400 air purifier sets a very high standard, and is unique in the marketplace, but was primarily conceived for the demands of the commercial marketplace," said Jack Lennon, President of UV Flu Technologies. "Our UV-400 kills airborne bacteria in larger spaces up to 700-900 sq. feet, whereas typical HEPA filter units generally cover a space from 100-200 sq. feet. Our unit keeps on killing contaminants long after the filter units have lost their efficacy as they are not dependent on changing, or washing filters continuously."


Mr. Lennon further notes, "Doctors have provided feedback to us that indicated they were reluctant to recommend air filters to their patients, because if the patients did not faithfully change or wash the filters at prescribed intervals, they could end up getting sicker from the infected air leaving the unit through the dirty filter. Our technology uses Hi Intensity Germicidal UV light, which kills organic contaminants that pass through the unit and isn't dependent on a filter medium that captures, but doesn't kill, bacteria and other contaminants."
"Our residential unit will use the same technology, but will be designed for smaller spaces, and will incorporate new features to make it easier to transport from room-to-room, such as between children's bedrooms. The UV-200 as planned, will offer features designed specifically for allergy relief, as well. We look forward to making these units available as soon as possible and invite interested individuals to contact us today to find out more," said Mr. Lennon.



Further details regarding the Company's business, financial reports and agreements are filed as part of the Company's continuous public disclosure as a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") EDGAR database.

RALEIGH, NC and QUEBEC CITY, Oct. 1 (http://www.investorideas.com/ biotech stocks blog ) - Medicago U.S.A. Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Medicago Inc. (TSX: MDG ), a biotechnology company focused on developing highly effective and affordable vaccines based on proprietary manufacturing technologies and Virus-Like Particles (VLPs), today announced that company executives, along with U.S. Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC) and U.S. Congressman David Price (D-NC), are holding an official groundbreaking ceremony this morning for its U.S. plant-based commercial grade vaccine facility in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. Medicago U.S.A. also announced the appointment of Mike Wanner as Vice President of U.S. Operations.



With today's groundbreaking ceremony, Medicago U.S.A. officially commenced the construction of its cGMP facility in Research Triangle Park (RTP), North Carolina. This VLP plant-based vaccine facility will include a fully automated greenhouse and a state of the art extraction and purification unit. The facility is targeted to produce 10 million doses of pandemic influenza vaccine per month. On an annual basis, the facility would have production capacity of 40 million doses of seasonal Influenza vaccine or 120 million doses of pandemic influenza vaccine.

"Thanks to the efforts and experience of our partners Alexandria Real Estate Equities and BE&K Building Group as well as our employees at Medicago, we are confident that this fast-track project will be delivered on time," said Andy Sheldon, President and CEO of Medicago. "North Carolina and RTP is a great place to build our business due to the excellent workforce, training programs and quality of life."

"We are very pleased to be working with Alexandria Real Estate Equities and with Medicago who is bringing this unique, rapid and cost-effective vaccine technology to North Carolina and to the Research Triangle Park," stated Joseph M. Raimondi, Project Executive of BE&K Building Group.

Mr. Wanner joins Medicago U.S.A. as Vice President of U.S. Operations and will lead the Company's U.S. expansion efforts. He was previously President and CEO of Abeome, a biotechnology company developing therapeutic and diagnostic monoclonal antibodies. Mr. Wanner served for over 11 years as CFO for Merial and Rhone Merieux, Inc. (RMI), one of the world's leading animal health companies, where he was involved in the construction and management of a large scale vaccine production facility in the U.S.

"Mike is a key addition to our senior management team. He brings tremendous experience in the vaccine industry and his hands on knowledge in the construction and management of a large-scale U.S. vaccine production facility will have immediate benefits in our U.S expansion efforts," stated Mr. Sheldon. "This expansion is a key part of our development plan for both our pandemic and seasonal influenza products as we will now have a U.S. commercial facility ready to participate in the $7B pandemic and seasonal influenza markets. Moreover, our U.S. facility will strengthen our relationships with key stakeholders in the U.S. and will provide us with enhanced access to the various grant programs for additional funding awards."

About Medicago
Medicago is committed to providing highly effective and affordable vaccines based on proprietary Virus-Like Particle (VLP) and manufacturing technologies. Medicago is developing VLP vaccines to protect against pandemic and seasonal influenza using a transient expression system which produces recombinant vaccine antigens in non-transgenic plants. Their lead vaccine candidate, H5N1, has successfully completed a PI clinical trial and will be entering a PII clinical trial in 2010. Medicago's technology has potential to offer advantages of speed and cost over competitive technologies. It could deliver a vaccine for testing in about a month after the identification and reception of genetic sequences from a pandemic strain. This production time frame has the potential to allow vaccination of the population before the first wave of a pandemic strikes and to supply large volumes of vaccine antigens to the world market.
