eFoodSafety Announces: OraPhyte(TM) Moves to Expedited Testing at Three Major Universities
Scottsdale, AZ - (WORLD STOCK WIRE) - September 12, 2007 -- eFoodSafety.com, Inc. (OTCBB:EFSF) is pleased to announce that three major universities with outstanding Agricultural Departments will conduct crop-specific research on the Company's OraPhyte(TM) product for the control of plant nematodes. These research studies expand on work underway at DuPont toward the commercialization of OraPhyte(TM) and are considered to be the final-phase testing that precedes bringing the product to market. OraPhyte(TM) has already been tested and shown to be effective at eradicating nematodes by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
eFoodSafety's wholly-owned subsidiary Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. will be responsible for the completion of research and subsequent commercialization of OraPhyte(TM). Robert Bowker, President of Knock-Out Technologies, commented, "I'm delighted that these three major universities will complete the studies of OraPhyte(TM) for control of the plant nematode problem. Prior research has proven OraPhyte(TM)'s efficacy at controlling nematodes. Once the university studies are completed, we expect to proceed into commercialization."
The market potential for OraPhyte(TM) is significant as it comes at a time when previously accepted chemical controls for nematodes have been withdrawn by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. In the United States, crop losses to nematode infestations reach $10 billion annually. Worldwide, the losses reach $100 billion.
Mr. Bowker also places credit for OraPhyte(TM)'s rapid movement into the final stages of testing with the recent addition to the company's team of Dr. Madan Joshi, formerly with DuPont and recently retained by eFoodSafety. "Dr. Joshi has been instrumental in expediting the final stages of OraPhyte(TM) testing at the university level; the significance of university testing is that it allows major companies to rely on the universities' independently verified results to accelerate decisions about licensing the OraPhyte(TM) product. Further, since the universities will test OraPhyte(TM) in crop specific applications, the results will allow labeling for the use of OraPhyte(TM) in the field, an essential element in meeting the real-world needs of the working farmer."
