SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif., Dec. 27, 2006 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- American Mold Guard, Inc. (Nasdaq:AMGI) through its wholly owned subsidiary, "AMG Scientific, LLC", announced today that it will be applying its novel Protection Plus interior surface treatment technology at the New Jersey Sports and Spine Surgical and Physical Therapy Centers in New Jersey, the Advanced Pain and Spine Center in Silver Spring, Maryland, and the Skin Suite Rx Med-Spa in Chino Hills, California.
AMG Scientific's Protection Plus treatment service aims to provide medical institutions and other organizations with an active defense against the spread of surface transmitted infectious diseases.
The New Jersey Sports and Spine Surgical and Physical Therapy centers, headed by Dr. Michael Gutkin, are located in Chester and Hackettstown, NJ. The centers provide rehabilitation and pain management treatment for neck and arthritic joints, hand therapy, epidurals, and treatment of sports related injuries. Dr. Gutkin is head of the largest pain group in Warren County, New Jersey where he owns multiple physical therapy rehabilitation facilities and surgery centers. Dr. Gutkin is director of sub-acute rehabilitation at several nursing homes and a cerebral palsy center. The Advanced Pain and Spine Centers have clinics in Germantown and Silver Spring, Maryland, and are currently headed by Dr. Sajid Khan, who specializes in degenerative spine and spinal deformities. The Skin Suite Rx Med-Spa in Chino Hills, California, headed by Dr. Waleed Ibrahim, offers the latest state-of -the-art technology with its advanced skin care treatments and non-surgical cosmetic enhancements.
"AMG Scientific is pleased that these medical facilities have selected us to apply our interior surface treatment technology to help combat the spread of pathogens in health care facilities," said Dr. Asif Ali, President of AMG Scientific, LLC. "As leaders in their field, the primary concern of each of the doctors at their respective facilities is for the health and safety of their patients. By applying our technology, we are providing patients and staff with an added surface intervention safety net for reduced microbial transference," added Dr. Ali.
"We are intrigued by the technology and service that AMG Scientific offers for antimicrobial surface treatment," said Dr. Michael Gutkin, owner of the New Jersey Sports and Spine Centers. There are numerous disinfectants and antiseptics for surface cleaning, but we chose AMG Scientific's Protection Plus treatment because of its long lasting, non-toxic, surface sterility characteristics," concluded Dr. Gutkin.
"I believe that AMG Scientific will make a significant impact on reducing infection and providing health care facilities with an additional tool in the fight against super bugs," said Dr. Waleed Ibrahim, head of Skin Suite Rx.
"Medical facilities around the country have been fighting against the spread of infectious diseases within their facilities for many years," said Dr. Atif Malik, Chief Science Officer of AMG Scientific. "Recent bacterium outbreaks in hospitals and cruise ships, along with new federal and state regulator reporting of nosocomial infections, have brought this issue to the public eye. AMG Scientifics' Protection Plus surface treatment will provide these medical facilities with an added weapon in the fight against disease transmission," concluded Dr. Malik.
Treatment at each of the medical facilities is scheduled to begin in early 2007.
