Medical Services New Test Kit to Be Independently Tested for Market
Posted on: Monday, 17 April 2006, 15:00 CDT
EDMONTON, Alberta, April 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Medical Services International Inc. is pleased to announce that its combined rapid test kit for HIV and Tuberculosis (TB) is now fully tested internally and is ready for independent testing in the market. The independent testing will start by the end of April, 2006. This dual flow test kit detects both HIV and TB simultaneously. It is a well known statistic that Thirty-five (35%) of the individuals that test positive for HIV have TB. TB is a highly contagious airborne infectious disease that will kill over two million people this year. This is more than all of the other infectious diseases combined. If detected early, TB is a relatively easy disease to cure.
The combined VScan HIV/TB test kit is the ONLY kit that can detect both HIV/TB at the same time. It is an ideal kit in remote areas where TB cannot be tested for because of the lack of trained medical personnel and no medical facilities. It is the first of its kind in the marketplace and in areas where the incidence of TB is high it will be an invaluable tool for the early detection of HIV/TB. This combined test kit is expected to generate significant revenue for the Company.
About VScan
The VScan rapid test kit is a single use, easy to use test for the screening of HIV 1&2, Hepatitis B&C, Tuberculosis (TB), Dengue Fever, West Nile, Syphilis and Prostate Cancer. The kits cannot be used in Canada.
