Press Release Summary = Millions of chickens culled, loss of life and fear have all
be a result H5N1 Avian Flu/SARS/Bird and now thanks to AgroMicron maybe there is
some light at the end of this tunnel.

Press Release Body = Identifying carriers of H5N1 Avian Flu (AKA SARS or Bird Flu)
before they board planes, enter countries and infect others is a top priority for
many countries and individuals, we are all fearful of a major epidemic.

One company that is not only afraid of what could be but is also trying to do
something about it is AgroMicron who has been developing several Rapid Early
Detection (RED) systems to screen and identify carriers in the most effective way.

AgroMicron’s unique research and development comes from using actual samples
collected from infect birds found in Hong Kong, ensuring that their systems not only
work in theory but they work in practice also.

Currently AgroMicron is in the final stages of development and even though they
would love to release their Rapid Early Detection (RED) systems now as the demand
from government institutions and even several airlines is very high they want to
make 100% sure that their system works without fault. “We want to make it a
seamless integration into the airports and checkpoints and at the same time we need
to make sure we correctly identify each and every person’s condition in the
shortest period of time.” was a comment made by Gary Lloyd, Senior Advisor for
AgroMicron during a recent interview.

That’s something that has the airlines interested as they see this as not only
a need but a valuable marketing tool, as who wants to board a plane if there is a
possibility that you might contract H5N1 Avian Flu (AKA SARS or Bird Flu) during the
flight. The goal of AgroMicron to make the Rapid Early Detection (RED) test
reasonably simple and not to invasive for the people ready to board an aircraft In
fact if you have flown in or out of Asia in the last few months you might have
already been part of the pilot testing program that is going on at various airports
in Asia.

At the heart of AgroMicron’s Rapid Early Detection (RED) systems for H5N1
Avian Flu (AKA SARS or Bird Flu) is something that anyone can appreciate, and that
is simplification. “If we can create a system that anyone can use and
understand it will further enable that the system can achieve a 100% detection rate.
We are anticipating that our tests will ensure a wide spread deployment within our
goals of 2006.” say AgroMicron’s CEO Richard Venturini. We are all
awaiting the outcome of the pilot tests and at the same time we look forward to some
of the other projects that AgroMicron has undertaken as each and every one of them
are adding great value to the world we live in. To learn more about
