NanoLogix, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: NNLX) announces advancements to its
go-to-market strategy, including the exploration of its BNP/BNF
technologies by the University of Texas - Texas Medical Center. To
facilitate its entry into a wide range of sectors and markets,
NanoLogix also announces it has retained Technica Communications
for marketing and public relations services. In addition, the
company will return for a third year to exhibit at the American
Society of Microbiology (ASM) General Meeting, being held in San
Diego at the end of May.
Physicians and other medical personnel at the University of
Texas - Texas Medical Center in Houston began last September to
explore Obstetrics applications for NanoLogix BNP/BNF technology.
This week Medical Center personnel are undertaking work to
determine the smallest amount of Group B Streptococcus (GBS)
identifiable and the shortest test time achievable through the use
of NanoLogix BNF technology. Texas Medical Center physicians see
the high-speed diagnostic capabilities of the NanoLogix technology
as a key to faster detection of GBS in late term pregnancies.
GBS bacteria are found in roughly 30 percent of reproductive-age
women. The health of both newborns and their mothers can be
seriously endangered if the newborns are delivered before mothers
with active GBS can be treated. Therefore, the Center for Disease
Control (CDC) recommends all pregnant women be tested, amounting to
roughly 4.3 million tests each year in the U.S. CDC guidelines
recommend physicians test pregnant women for GBS in the final weeks
of their term. The NanoLogix BNP/BNF technology works 6 times
faster than traditional methods and can reduce the GBS detection
and identification time from 72 hours to approximately 12
hours.
To expand the reach and visibility of NanoLogix and its
technologies, Technica Communications has been retained to support
the company's short and long term business goals. Founded by
President Lisa Ann Pinkerton, Technica Communications teams former
health science and environmental journalists with talented
marketing communications professionals, to provide marketing and
communications services, ranging from branding and media relations,
to video production, social media campaigns and web development.
Its strategically focused and results-oriented outreach will
spotlight NanoLogix and its rapid detection technology in sectors
and markets primed for the next generation of accurate, high-speed
diagnostics.
At the 110th Annual American Society of Microbiology Meeting in
San Diego, CA, (May 24th - 26th) at the San Diego Convention
Center, NanoLogix CEO Bret Barnhizer and VP of Research and
Development Dr. Sergey Gazenko will display the company's BNP™,
BNC™, and BNF™ rapid detection and identification technologies at
booth 1629. The ASM is the world's premier event for microbiology.
