NanoLogix Files International Patent Applications, Reclaims 18 Existing Patents, Noted in Department of Defense Quarterly Publication and Provides Operations Update
| Source: NanoLogix Inc.
HUBBARD, OH--(Marketwire - November 3, 2009) - NanoLogix, Inc. (PINKSHEETS : NNLX ) announces
that the company has recently filed BNP (BioNanoPore) national patent
applications in China, Japan, India, Brazil, Russia and the EU. These
applications were filed in order to obtain intellectual property protection
for the company's technology in countries viewed as representing the
largest potential international market for BNP rapid detection, a
revolutionary sandwiched-membrane Petri-based technology that can reduce
microorganism detection times by 100-400%.
At the company's September 25th shareholder meeting, the support for all
proposals presented by the company for shareholder approval was
overwhelmingly positive, with all shareholder-rights/takeover-defense plan
proposals receiving 98-99% of the 64 million shares voted out of roughly
101 million shares outstanding.
The company has reclaimed full rights to 18 patents previously licensed to
Nutra Pharma Corporation after failure of Nutra Pharma to pay the balance
of patent royalties due for 2008 and the first half of 2009. Nutra Pharma
was served notice of their default in July. NanoLogix has returned the 18
patents to the company portfolio and will pursue development and marketing
of select technological aspects of the patents.
NanoLogix's April press release: "New Weapon in BioDefense Research:
NanoLogix Kit Speeds Rapid Diagnostics of Anthrax and Bubonic Plague," was
highlighted in the latest issue of the Department of Defense Quarterly,
"CBRNIAC," from the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense
Information Analysis Center. The publication can be accessed at:

NanoLogix has received notification from New Brunswick Scientific of a
November 20th shipping date for ordered production equipment for its
cleanroom production facility at the company's Hubbard, Ohio headquarters.
This order consists of four machines for production of BNP rapid-detection
kits and is anticipated to be the first of many for kit production.
NanoLogix management, staff, and directors would like to congratulate
Corporate Counsel David R. Barnhizer for his recent three-year appointment
as Visiting Professor to the University of Westminster, London. Professor
Barnhizer will continue as corporate counsel.
