Q&A Interview with Fast Growing Biotech Products Company UV Flu Technologies (OTCBB: UVFT)

December 1, 2010 (Investorideas.com Newswire, www.biotechindustrystocks.com ) - www.InvestorIdeas.com and its leading Biotech investor portal release a Q&A with biotech company UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT). Mr. John J. Lennon, President & CEO, discusses recent developments with the company's air purifying technology, ViraTech UV-400.
Interview:
Q: Investorideas.com
To give investors an introduction, UV Flu Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT) develops and manufactures technologies within the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) industry sector, with your primary product, the ViraTech™ UV-400 model that purifies indoor air by killing bacteria, including superbugs such as NDM-1.
As global awareness increases for the need for better air and water quality technology, your company is aggressively marketing its technology to both consumers and industry. Can you give some hi- lights of what's in the pipeline?
A: Our Company is building a brand. The inadequacy of previous entrants in the air-purifier marketplace makes our job all the more important. Companies in the past, and present, continue to sell millions of air purifiers, with technology that just doesn't work in the residential marketplace. Our products are designed to work with almost no maintenance required. As long as the green light is on, our UV-400 is killing contaminants! We are designing a model specifically for the residential marketplace that we believe will be a category killer! It will have all the killing capabilities of our UV-400, at a lower price point. It will have the capability to kill, and trap, will be the most attractive air purifier in the world, and will have independent, FDA/EPA lab certified test results to support every claim. It will also have 3-4 times the coverage of a typical HEPA based unit, at the same price.
We will also purchase higher volume models to extend our lines on the commercial side.
Q: Investorideas.com
According to your website," Independent EPA and FDA certified laboratory testing confirms the system kills airborne bacteria at rates ranging from 99.2% to more than 99.99% on a first-pass basis. In actual operation multiple passes through the unit will occur, producing average removal rates that far exceed 99.2%." How does this compare to competition in terms of cost and efficiency?
A: Interestingly enough, there are very few units in the world today that actually kill contaminants. Over 95% of air purifiers on the market today capture, but don't kill contaminants. They rely on electrostatic, or HEPA filter technology, which captures, but doesn't kill particulates. All of these products, if filters or plates are not replaced or cleaned on a regular basis, can produce air that is actually dirtier than leaving the unit off. The filters become a “petrie" dish, where bacterial or viral colonies can grow in the filter.
The UV-400 has a kill chamber, which uses Germicidal UV light to kill organic contaminants. Independent lab tests have verified that the killing ability is almost identical, whether it is bacteria, or viruses. The unit can cover a space of up to 7-900 sq ft, while still passing the air 3X per hour. Competing HEPA or electrostatic products can cover 150-200 sq ft, when the filter is clean-less when the filter is dirty. It would typically take 4 HEPA filters to cover the same space. These products typically need $100-150 annually in new filters, as well.
Q: Investorideas.com
The company has completed the design of its second product, a smaller, lower cost version of the ViraTech™ UV-400. Can you give us some insight into the markets and applications for it?
A: One residential electrostatic air purifier product sold 3 million units at $400 apiece, before it was pulled from the market, due to its inability to clean the air. We think there is an international market potential for our product of several hundred thousand units per year. The market would be geared to the market for bedrooms, apartments, hotel room, and small offices, where price points, and space coverage requirements are lower.
Q: Investorideas.com
According to a recent report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., demand for air filters in developing countries will outpace growth in mature markets such as US, European, and Japan. By 2015, China will supplant Japan to become the second largest market for air filter equipment behind United States. What are the company's plans to participate in the global market?
A: The Company already has the international markets in its sights. Air quality in developing markets, including China, is considerably worse than in this country. The Company has begun shipping units to Europe, which suffers from epidemic rates of HAI's, or hospital associated infections, like MRSA, and plans on having distribution to China by mid-year 2011.

Highlights from the Cancer Vaccines Product Page:
Read the Full info at: http://www.biosantepharma.com/Cancer-Vaccines.php
BioSante Pharmaceuticals Inc. is developing a pipeline of Immunotherapies (cancer vaccines). BioSante's cancer vaccines use cell lines that are genetically modified to secrete granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), an immunostimulant. The cells then are irradiated to prevent further cell division; however the cells remain metabolically active.
Currently, BioSante's Cancer Vaccines are in various Phase I and Phase II cancer clinical trials and may represent the widest portfolio (cancer types) of cancer vaccines in development. Studies are conducted primarily at Johns Hopkins Cancer Center and are sponsored/funded by The Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center, various philanthropies, foundations and the National Cancer Institute
Cancer Types Being Studied:
  • Leukemia
  • Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)
  • Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
  • Pancreatic Cancer
  • Breast Cancer
  • Multiple Myeloma
  • Melanoma
  • Colorectal
  • Prostate Cancer
Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) — Results of a Phase II clinical trial
Of 19 patients treated with GVAX CML, 7 had complete remission.
  • Gleevec was taken for at least one year (range 13-53 months) pre-vaccine and then GVAX CML was administered while the patients remained on a stable dose of Gleevec.
  • 19 patients enrolled (median of 72 months of follow-up)
  • 13 patients (8 of whom had increasing disease burden before vaccination): the number of remaining cancer cells declined
  • 12 patients reached their lowest levels of residual cancer cells to date following vaccination
  • 7 patients had complete remission
"We want to get rid of every last cancer cell in the body, and using cancer vaccines may be a good way to mop up residual disease," said lead investigator Hyam Levitsky, M.D., professor of oncology, medicine and urology at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore, Maryland.
Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) — Results of Phase II
Patients treated with GVAX had both a relapse-free survival and overall survival rate improvement of approximately 30% compared with the non-GVAX-treated subjects.
  • GVAX AML was accompanied by immunotherapy-primed lymphocytes after autologous stem cell transplantation.
  • 54 subjects enrolled
  • 28 (52%) received a pre-transplantation GVAX AML dose
  • 46 (85%) subjects achieved complete remission during the treatment period. Of these patients, the 3-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rate was:
    • 47.4% in non-GVAX treated patients
    • 61.8% in the GVAX-treated group
    • Overall survival (OS) rate in all subjects was 57.4%
    • Overall survival (OS) rate was 73.4% in the GVAX-treated group
    • In summary, patients treated with GVAX had both a relapse-free survival and overall survival rate improvement of approximately 30% compared with the non-GVAX-treated subjects

Urgent Health Threat from Airborne Viruses; How UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT innovative new air purification technology is more effective than filtering

Point Roberts WA - November 30, 2010 – www.Investorideas.com, an investor research portal
specialized in sector investing, issues biotech stocks commentary by Lisa Springer, CFA, equity
research analyst and financial writer. The report entitled,’ Urgent Health Threat from Airborne
Viruses ‘, features UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT) and its air purification technology.

Urgent Health Threat from Airborne Viruses

Lisa Springer, CFA, Equity research analyst and financial writer

Stocks in this report: UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT), Pall Corp (NYSE:PLL),
Donaldson Company (NYSE:DCI)

There is an urgent health threat deadlier than the H1N1 pandemic on the rise, yet few Americans
are aware of it. The threat comes from infections acquired while in the hospital. According to a
recent government study, America’s hospitals aren’t adequately protecting patients from these
potentially deadly infections. A 2009 report by the US Health and Human Services department
found little progress has been made over the past decade in eliminating hospital-acquired
infections and urged Congress to take action.

As many as 98,000 Americans die each year from medical errors and preventable infections are
a major contributor to the problem. Ten years ago, the Institute of Medicine launched a campaign
to stamp out hospital-acquired infections, but the success of their initiatives has been minimal.
The latest report showed three of five major types of hospital-acquired infections have actually
become more prevalent, one showed no progress and only one declined. Bloodstream infections,
which are considered the most serious and potentially fatal, rose 8.0 percent. There was also
a sizable 3.6 percent increase in the incidence of urinary tract infections. While generally
responsive to antibiotics, urinary tract infections increase hospitalization time and costs. Overall,
the incidence of common hospital-acquired infections was up 1.6 percent.

Media coverage of hospital-acquired infections, the swine flu pandemic and antibiotic resistant
superbugs is raising consumer awareness and spurring government agencies and businesses
to take action to safeguard public health. Demand for products that prevent the spread of
airborne illnesses is rising exponentially. The swine flu pandemic created a $7 billion windfall for
vaccine manufacturers, according to the Wall Street Journal, and a bonanza for makers of hand
sanitizers, who experienced a 129% jump in shipments during last year’s flu season.
This heightened awareness is also spreading to the nearly $8 billion annual market for indoor air
quality products. These products improve air quality in commercial buildings, hospitals, schools
and homes by removing airborne pathogens. Scientific studies show poor indoor air quality is
a major reason for the spread of infectious disease. According to the Environmental Protection
Agency, the air inside buildings where people spend 90% of their time now poses a greater threat
than outdoor air.

Most air quality systems use a simple filter (either standard or HEPA) to trap pathogens.
Well-known filter device manufacturers include Pall Corp (NYSE:PLL), Donaldson Company
(NYSE:DCI) and Millipore, which was recently acquired by Merck KGaA. A relative newcomer
to this market, UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT), has developed an innovative new air
purification technology that is more effective than filtering. This technology disinfects indoor air
by deactivating allergens and killing airborne pathogens, including bacteria, viruses and mold.
UV Flu Technologies flagship product, the ViraTech UV-400, uses high intensity germicidal UV
radiation inside a killing chamber to trap and destroy harmful microbes. Extensive independent
testing by EPA and FDA certified laboratories confirms UV Flu Technologies system captures and

kills airborne bacteria and viruses at rates exceeding 99.2% on a first pass basis. The technology
is so effective that UV Flu Technologies was able to secure a Class II medical listing enabling it to
market its product as a medical device.

Since introducing its flagship device less than one year ago, UV Flu Technologies has sold
units to multiple sports teams, hospitals, restaurants and other commercial customers. Two
professional hockey teams (including the renowned Boston Bruins) and numerous college
teams have installed ViraTech UV-400 units in their locker rooms. In addition, the company has
installed units at two major hospitals and has units being evaluated by a large nursing home
chain. Hospitality customers such as The Seagate Hotel and Spa in Delray Beach, Florida, the
Boston Harbor Hotel and Boston’s XV Beacon Hotel have installed ViraTech UV-400 units and
one of the nation's largest 5 star hotels is evaluating the unit for its operations. Tests of units
are also underway with one of the largest hotel and restaurant suppliers in the Northeast. In
addition, "Clean Air for Everyone," a non-profit promoting clean air for schools and non-profits
across America recently selected the ViraTech UV-400 as its lead product for national rollout.

UV Flu Technologies plans to expand its product line and distribution capabilities by acquiring
a major US manufacturer of high quality air purification equipment. The company hopes to
complete the merger this year. Included in the agreement is a patented product line, national
distribution network, and installed base of several thousand units across 1,000 unique facilities
nationwide. UVFT President Jack Lennon notes that the expanded product line will make the
company more attractive to large US distributors and improve its visibility in the hospital, hotel
and casino markets. UV Flu Technologies is also expanding its sales channels by adding three
new distributors. The new distributors are Emerald Medical Service, a supplier of medical
equipment serving the Washington, DC area; UV Air, a supplier to government, schools,
and hotels in Massachusetts and Factory-Direct Green, a distributor servicing over 400 hotel
customers in California.

Industrial and Commercial - UV Flu announced a Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire 100% of the ownership of a major US manufacturer of high quality industrial air purification equipment specializing in the medical and hospitality marketplace. The agreement includes a patented, trademarked product line, with dozens of national distributors and representatives, an extensive customer list, inventory, and all associated manufacturing equipment. The company's sales include an installed base of several thousand units in over 1000 unique facilities nationwide.
National Distribution Network - The Company added 3 new distributors including Emerald Medical Service, a supplier of medical equipment throughout the Washington, DC area, UV Air, a supplier to government, schools, and hotels in the Woburn, MA area, and Factory-Direct Green, a distributor servicing over 400 hotel customers in the Carlsbad, California area.
New Research - Received favorable preliminary test results from independent FDA and EPA certified test facilities that demonstrated the ViraTech UV-400 air purifier to be effective in the inactivation of a typical virus surrogate utilized as part of the test protocol. If advanced stage testing proves positive, this could be a momentous step forward in the further development of the product as a Medical Device.
Television - UV Flu Technologies invites everyone to visit the Company website (www.uvflutech.com) to view an informative, seasonal video presented by the producers of the TV show, "Designing Spaces" which highlights the features and benefits of the UV-400 especially during the Holiday Season.

Biotech/Pharma Stocks News; UV Flu Technologies (OTCBB: UVFT) Identifies New Prospects for UV-400 Air Purifier With Rising Health Concerns Within Hospitality Market Segments

CENTERVILLE, MA � November 17, 2010 (Investorideas.com Newswire) - UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT) (the "Company"), announced today that the Company is expanding its focus within the Hospitality industry to newly identified areas suffering from serious health concerns for both customers and employees alike. Commencing immediately, the Company will direct efforts to provide its UV-400 air quality solution targeting the restaurant and spa sectors.
Restaurants generally prove vulnerable to poor indoor air quality, particularly with respect to the use of cleaning solvents in the dining room and bar areas, as well as the possibility for odors, mold and mildew that can plague food preparation areas.
In the personal grooming arena, Spas and Salons across the Country have demonstrated increasing evidence of illnesses affecting employees, customers, and even children due to the presence of Volatile Organic Compounds ("VOC") emitted by a variety of hair, nail and other personal grooming treatments, in many instances with little or no air purification whatsoever provided.
"There are serious ramifications building across the Country due to the lack of education on how damaging these contaminants are to the long term health of the people that are breathing them on a regular basis," said Jack Lennon, President of UV Flu Technologies. "We are contacted on a weekly basis by parents, as well as workers and customers, who have experienced symptoms of illness themselves, or whose children have experienced negative effects while certain treatments were underway with no air purification in evidence, or with non-functioning air purifiers being used."
"A particularly troubling aspect is that many of these individuals breathing these VOC's are at young ages critical to the development of their heart and lungs," continues Mr. Lennon, "Some of these popular hair treatments have been shown recently to contain up to 20% formaldehyde, while acetone and benzene are being used for nails. These contaminants are known carcinogens, and salons who are not addressing the concerns of their employees and customers are not only facing a loss of business, but the risk of litigation, as well as potential legislation."
Mr. Lennon continues, "Regarding the several-hundred thousand restaurants in this country, we believe that up to one in four restaurants suffers to a degree from odors caused by cleaning solvents, and in such a competitive marketplace it doesn't take much to adversely affect a business in an area that has already been severely hurt by the decline of the domestic economy. If people smell chemicals when they dine out, they may leave, or choose not to return... and in many instances it's a subliminal decision. In the food prep area there are many opportunities due principally to moisture that can affect the build-up of odors, mold and mildew. Good food preparation procedures alone can't prevent these types of air quality issues which ultimately could not only hurt the reputation of the business, but in extreme cases, cause its closure."
"Our air purifier, the ViraTech UV-400, reduces all types of odors and Volatile Organic Compounds, while also killing bacteria and other contaminants. The unit could potentially pay for itself in its first day of operation in many instances. We think from the standpoint of return on investment, as well an obligation to keep their employees and customers healthy and safe, this is a must-buy product," 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.
