Produce Safety &Amp; Security International Inc. Responds to Significant Increase in Demand for Spherequat(R) 1000

Posted on: Thursday, 13 April 2006, 12:00 CDT

PRODUCE SAFETY AND SECURITY INTERNATIONAL, INC. (OTC: PDSC), ("PDSC"), an ozone and chemical sanitation disinfectant process supplier to the food and medical industries, responds to significant increase in demand for SpherequatR1000, the Company's EPA Registered line of cleaning and disinfectant products, EPA Registration number 10324-63-82131 and. HEALTH CANADA's drug identification number 02278952.

Due to the Company's April 11th, 2006 announcement stating, "Produce Safety's Spherequat(R)1000 EPA Registered disinfectant and sanitizer proves effective against the Avian Influenza A, and Avian Reovirus," Produce Safety has experienced a significant increase in requests for reorders of SpherequatR1000. The Company responds to this demand by preparing 6 container loads of SpherequatR1000 ready for shipment from the Prescott, Arizona Distribution Center to the Company's poultry and pork processing customers.

Spherequat(R)1000 represents only one of many sanitation and disinfectant products Produce Safety has to offer to the Produce, Food and Medical Industries. Based on current trend, Company projects annual top end revenues for Spherequat(R)1000 to be $1,200,000 conservatively.

The Spherequat(R)1000 EPA-Registered disinfectant product is registered and labeled with a claim to inactivate "Avian Influenza A" viruses on hard, non-porous surfaces. Typical applications for this product include: veterinary premises, poultry houses, farm premises and equipment. Produce Safety & Security has extended this use to the Produce Industry as well. Although there are no antimicrobial products registered specifically against the H5N1 subtype of Avian Influenza A viruses, EPA believes that the currently registered Avian Influenza A products, when applied in strict accordance with the label directions, will be effective against H5N1 strain. These disinfectants, which are typically in liquid or spray form, are available from Produce Safety & Security International, and users should look for an EPA registration number on the label.

Clarence W. Karney, CEO of Produce Safety & Security International, Inc., stated, "We are pleased with the level of interest and proactive position our customers are taking to address a potential problem that could have devastating effects on the poultry and pork industries. It is important for Produce Safety to be as proactive by making sure our distribution centers are well stocked to meet this demand."
