Bio-Extraction Inc. (TSX VENTURE: BXI) ("BioExx" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has received a Certificate of Registration that certifies that the Food Safety Management System of BioExx Specialty Proteins Inc. ("BSPI") has been assessed by NSF-ISR and found to be in conformance with ISO 22000:2005 where the Scope of Registration is Canola oilseed processing. NSF-ISR is a not- for-profit, non-governmental organization that is the world leader in standards development, product certification, education, and risk-management for public health and safety. BSPI is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bio-Extraction Inc. and is the owner and operator of the Company's canola processing facility in Saskatoon.

ISO 22000:2005 requires that all hazards that may be reasonably expected to occur in the food chain, including hazards that may be associated with the type of process and facilities used, are identified and assessed. Thus it provides the means to determine and document why certain identified hazards need to be controlled by a particular organization and why others need not. ISO 22000 integrates the principles of the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system and application steps developed by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.

To successfully complete the ISO 22000:2005 audit, an applicant must also demonstrate that it has adequately installed both HACCP and GMP procedures and is practicing both to a level that is consistent with the requirements set out under ISO 22000:2005.

HACCP is internationally recognized as the primary means for enhancing food safety throughout the food chain, and is increasingly being used around the world. HACCP, or, Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points, is a standard designed to prevent, reduce or eliminate potential biological, chemical and physical food safety hazards.

Good manufacturing practices or "GMP" is a term that is recognized worldwide for the control and management of manufacturing and quality control of foods, pharmaceutical products, and medical devices. GMPs are guidelines that outline the aspects of production that would affect the quality of a product. In Canada, GMP is controlled and monitored by Health Canada.

"We are very proud of our Saskatoon team for achieving this important certification so early in the plant life-cycle. While firmly expected, we do believe this is an important milestone as it demonstrates a readiness to manage the critical issue of food safety, and the additional controls that will be required, as we commence our specialty protein production," says BioExx CEO Chris Carl. "We also believe that this is exemplary of the very strong importance that senior management puts on quality in every aspect of our operations."

ABEX Award

BioExx is very proud to announce that it is the recipient of the 2009 Achievement for Business Excellence (ABEX) Award in the category of Technology-In-Action New Saskatchewan Product. The award, which was issued by the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce on Saturday, October 24th, and sponsored by the Saskatchewan Research Council, goes to a business demonstrating exceptional performance in launching a new Saskatchewan- made product, technology or service, which is original and has strong commercial potential.

Laurence Parslow, General Manager of the Saskatoon Plant and Director of Research and Development for BioExx, accepted the award. "It is a great honour to be recognized in our community among so many other excellent Saskatchewan companies," said Mr. Parslow. "We are very excited about the new canola based protein products that we are bringing to market and we look forward to continued success working with some of the best minds and research organizations in the industry here in Saskatchewan."

The award also includes a $10,000 monetary prize provided by SRC's Technology-in-Action Fund. BioExx intends to use the funds either to make a donation, or to create a program of its own, aimed at assisting others in furthering their post-secondary, science-related education in Saskatchewan.
