Applied DNA Sciences Ships Additional Orders for SigNature DNA and DermalRx

Posted on: Wednesday, 9 April 2008, 18:00 CDT

Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: APDN), a provider of DNA-based security solutions, today announced that it has shipped follow-on orders of SigNature™ DNA and DermalRx™ in the second fiscal quarter of 2008 which ended March 31, 2008.

"We believe these orders are significant steps forward for both the company and the technology," stated Dr. James Hayward, CEO of Applied DNA Sciences. "We feel that these repeat orders reflect satisfied customers and further market acceptance of our products. We were able to fulfill both orders within two weeks of receipt demonstrating APDN's preparedness for execution."

Within one month of shipping the first order of custom SigNature™ DNA markers for use in the cash-in-transit industry, APDN received a second order of SigNature™ DNA Markers from the same company, a world leading cash handling organization. At about the same time, APDN shipped a third order of DermalRx™ to its prior multinational customer developing new skin care products. Full blown commercialization of this skin care product is still anticipated by the end of 2008.

"APDN continues to focus its energies on developing solutions that meet the individual needs of every organization we work with, offering products customers can rely on and technology they can trust," continued Dr. Hayward. "We are pleased to have follow-on orders from two established customers, as we continue to develop new sales leads. By diversifying into these related businesses, we maximize our technical expertise and minimize economic cycles affecting any one of these businesses."
