Press Release Summary: "An Evolution in Process Control" from AdvantaPure(R) shows
how RFID simplifies record keeping for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and
biomedical industries using its P.E.T. Process Equipment Tracking(TM) system for
electronic identification.

Press Release Body: Now available from AdvantaPure is "An Evolution in Process
Control," a video presentation developed to explain the company's P.E.T Process
Equipment Tracking(TM) system (patent numbers 7,195,149 and 7,259,675). P.E.T is
designed to simplify record keeping for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and
biomedical applications by utilizing RFID technology.

P.E.T Process Equipment Tracking, developed in partnership with ProcessHQ, Inc.,
offers an increased degree of safety and minimizes risk by electronically
identifying and tracking the cleaning, usage, and maintenance of equipment. It uses
RFID (radio frequency identification) tags to monitor all process equipment involved
with a particular batch of product. P.E.T is also applicable to preventive
maintenance and asset tracking systems.

"An Evolution in Process Control" illustrates how automation can replace outdated,
inefficient procedures, such as those involving paper labeling of equipment, log
books, and calendar-based replacement methods. The video uses easy-to-understand
language and visuals to show how P.E.T can assist with cost reduction, speed audit
trails, consolidate documents, and improve communication. The compatibility of P.E.T
to existing workflows, standard operating procedures, hardware, and software is
explained as well. The presentation is approximately 6-1/2 minutes long.

Also highlighted in the presentation is GammaTag(TM), the only read/write RFID tag
that withstands gamma irradiation while maintaining data integrity. Available
exclusively from AdvantaPure, GammaTag provides reliable component identification
from manufacture to sterilization and all the way to the end user. GammaTag ensures
that critical information such as part, serial, or lot numbers will accompany a
component throughout its useful life.
