Industry = Software

Press Release Summary = BioLink Solutions announces successful development and
implementation of the custom application allowing for biometric identification of
users on the CITRIX platform. The custom development and integration done by
BioLink's partner in India - Logistic Solutions, Inc. - is ordered by Quintiles
Transnational Corporation, a global pharmacy company.

Press Release Body = The project is intended for biometric integration with the QECG
(Quintiles Centralized Electrocardiogram) service. It is an advanced application
designed to help pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies analyze ECG data from
clinical trials and use digital ECG data in submissions to regulatory authorities.
The QECG application is built on the client-server architecture; all authentication
and automation tools are installed at the server side, while the devices like
BioLink scanners, a barcode scanner and printer, as well as a signature pad are
connected to the client machine. The custom application developed provides
authenticated access of the client machines to the database of the QECG system
installed on the Citrix server.

The project workflow is as follows. Medical staff making use of the QECG system
installed on the Citrix server accesses the application through the client program
installed on their desktops. Access to the QECG application is protected by the
BioLink scanning devices used to reliably authenticate medical officers saving data
or adding new users to the central database of the QECG application. The biometric
database centrally stored on BioLink's ASA Server is also located on the Citrix
server. Operation with biometric scanners on the client machine is available thanks
to the developed Virtual Citrix Channel Device Driver for BioLink's scanners,
helping to virtually create on the Citrix server the actual BioLink fingerprint
scanner physically connected to the client machine.

For the pilot phase of the project BioLink delivered its software development kit
(BioLink SDK), ASA Server with 300 end-user licenses used to store the biometric
database and 65 fingerprint scanners of the U-Match family. At the 1st
implementation phase, the system is supposed to extend up to 300 workplaces equipped
with biometric scanners. The project expecting further expansion for the Quintiles
Transnational Corporation that employs about 16,000 people and has offices in 50
countries can be considered quite a remarkable milestone for delivering advanced
biometric identification solutions in the healthcare sphere.

In general, biometric identification of Citrix platform users is a popular trend in
the authentication technology market. Embedded into the medical application,
BioLink's biometrics helps improve, speed up and add credibility to the procedures
of identifying the medical staff, thus preventing misuses of patients' ECG data.
