This just came in on my Schwab news for UDTT. The stock has been up and down but mainly unchanged for a while but it still has a fair amount of activity and I think it looks good. Any thoughts?
LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 09/25/07 -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTCBB: UDTT), a developer and provider of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and radiological weapons, received more than 30 orders for its Bio-Detection Kits during the recent counter terrorism conference in Sarasota, hosted by the Sarasota Sheriff's office.
UDTT marketed its counter terrorism solutions including the Company's bioterrorism detection kits, BSM-2000 (real time anthrax detector), and radiological detection systems during the conference to members of law enforcement.
"We are extremely pleased to have the opportunity to provide all of these Federal, Military, State and Local counterterrorism agencies with kits capable of detecting up to five biological pathogens. This conference gave us the ability to market our devices as well as to demonstrate the detection of biological weapons using our products," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer.
The Kits were billed to the above noted security agencies through SSI as part of participation in the counterterrorism training at the Gulf Coast Terrorism Prevention Conference and are expected to be delivered to them directly from UDT within the next 30 days.

LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 09/27/07 -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTCBB: UDTT).
As quoted today in the Associated Press, one of the major challenges of the US defense forces is tracking scientists moving from country to country to share their expertise in building biological weapons.
According to the same article, unlike nuclear weapons or missiles, biological weapons can be manufactured in relatively nondescript facilities that are hard to detect. That makes tracking the people with the know-how to build the weapons themselves even more critical, said Vice Adm. Robert Murrett, director of the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency. The agency analyzes imagery intelligence that comes from aircraft and satellites.
Biological weapons use viruses, bacteria or toxins rather than explosives to target people, animals or agriculture. They can be loaded onto a traditional warhead or dispersed by less sophisticated methods, like the letters containing deadly anthrax spores mailed to Congress and media outlets in 2001.
Because they are easier to hide than nuclear weapons or missiles, biological weapons are best tracked by monitoring those with expertise to make them -- a formidable challenge in itself, Murrett said.
"The kind of challenge we have for proliferation which I think is tougher is, for example, the transfer of individual scientists from country A to country B," he said at a breakfast with defense reporters. Tracking individuals trying to spread biological weapons know-how is beyond the capabilities of his agency alone, Murrett said. It requires multiple intelligence agencies to combine their intercepts, data bases and analyses. "That's probably working as well today as maybe it ever has," he said.
"In addition to the critical intelligence required to defuse attacks with biological weapons, monitoring of air for early detection of such bio-warfare agents is an effective tool in taking action before occurrence of mass casualties," said Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "The threat of bioterrorism is here to stay and at UDTT, we strive to supply solutions and technologies that can save the public from such threats," he added.

Universal Detection Technology's Microbial Monitor Designed to Detect Airborne MRSA, Drug-Resistant Staph Bacteria
Thursday October 18, 4:00 pm ET
Similar Technology Utilized on the International Space Station to Monitor Microbial Levels
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 18, 2007 -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News), a developer and provider of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and radiological weapons, reported on the most recent advances on the development of the Microbial Event Monitor (MEM) Project. The MEM is designed to monitor the air for airborne bacteria including the deadly MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus). The technology is under exclusive license to UDTT from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) Office of Technology Transfer and is protected under a provisional patent.
ADVERTISEMENT
The technology originated out of NASA's concern of Microbial buildup in closed-loop environments such as the International Space Station. Such buildups are detrimental to the health of the astronauts. UDTT licensed the technology in February 2006 and commenced the commercialization of the technology into an airborne monitor for indoor bacterial levels. The technology has been successfully tested by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the Environmental Control and Life Support System at Marshall Space Flight Center.
According to a recent paper published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the MRSA microbe, a strain of a once harmless staph bacterium that has become invulnerable to first-line antibiotics, is responsible for more than 94,000 serious infections and nearly 19,000 deaths each year. Recent reports also indicate the spread of MRSA into the nation's schools including a recent fatal case in a Virginia high school.
"We have been aware of the threat of MRSA for some time now and have actively pursued the development of technology to measure airborne microbe levels," said Mr. Amir Ettehadieh, UDTT's Director of Research and Development. "Our goal is to have a system that would warn hospital officials of elevated microbe levels thus triggering sterilization of the premises before widespread infection," he added.

I've been watching this company for a few years now and it has been painfull at times but I have seen them come to focus on this market in the recent past. Word is starting to spread and the global climate is unfortunatly prime for early detection of any threat in public places such as airports, schools and hospitals. The growth potential for a company like UDTT could be huge if they continue to manage it well and it is certainly cheap enough to take a chance with investment dollar wise. Here's hoping! Good luck next week, and good trading.

LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Nov 26, 2007 -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:P08.F - News), a developer and provider of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and radiological weapons, announced today that it has received a purchase order for its licensed MRSA Germicide from a Quiznos restaurant franchise. The product is an anti-microbial solution designed to kill over 99.99% of microbes it comes in contact with including the deadly MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus). UDTT begin marketing the anti-microbial solution earlier this month though a partnership with EMME consulting.

The anti-microbial solution uses a composite of titanium dioxide containing sparing soluble silver chloride that inhibits microbe multiplication thus reducing their populations. Extensive studies show that surfaces treated with the solution remain sterile for days after sterilization. The solution is designed to kill 99.99% of microbes including MRSA.
"The purchase order from Quiznos indicates that there is a concern in the restaurant industry on the recent spread of MRSA infections," said Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "There have been numerous cases of MRSA infection in schools and hospitals accordingly restaurants need to take the necessary precautions and protect their customers," he added.
According to Doctors at the University of Chicago Hospital, 65 percent of the staphylococcus infections coming into emergency rooms in otherwise healthy kids are MRSA. Moreover, the MRSA is resistant to anywhere from 15 to 30 different antibiotics. That means when it's detected, a doctor has only a very small number of compounds at hand that are able to kill it. Recent reports also indicate a rise in the levels of MRSA infections in schools and colleges.

Universal Detection Technology Fulfills Purchase Order for Bioterrorism Detection Kits from the British Government
Purchase Order for Consumables and Software for BSM-2000 and Point Detection Kits for Anthrax, Ricin Toxin, and Three other Bioterrorism Agents Fulfilled
LOS ANGELES-Wednesday, December 05, 2007-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News), a developer and marketer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism announced today that is has fulfilled the recently announced purchase order from the Government of England. The order was for additional consumables and software for two of the Company's BSM-2000, anthrax detection systems, previously purchased by the British Government. The order also includes point detection kits which are capable of detecting Anthrax, Ricin toxin, Botulinum toxin, Plague, and SEBs.
"We are very pleased to have fulfilled this order for counter-bioterrorism solutions to the British Government. This constitutes the second order from the Government that we have received and subsequently fulfilled and we look forward to marketing our counterterrorism solutions to governments and private sector users both domestically and internationally," said Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer.
Recently, in a study published in Nature Biotechnology, rapid improvements in bio-technology have been said to allow researchers to generate genetic material starting from just information and raw chemicals. The use of this technology by bio-terrorists can lead to them creating pathogens that potentially can:
1- Render a vaccine ineffective;
2- Confer resistance to therapeutically useful drugs;
3- Enhance the virulence of a pathogen or rendering a non-pathogen viru*lent;
4- Increase transmissibility;
5- Alter host range;
6- Enable the evasion of a di*agnostic or other detection; and
7- Enable weaponization.
"There is a possibility that a bio-terrorist could use a DNA synthesizer to create anthrax bacteria that will be undetectable by current PCR based systems" said Mr. Amir Ettehadieh, UDTT's Director of Research and Development. "The BSM-2000 is immune to such manipulations as it uses a non-DNA based procedure to detect anthrax," he added.
UDTT is also a supplier of detection kits that are capable of detection up to five bioterrorism agents including anthrax, ricin, botulinum, plague, and SEBs. Other products include radiation detection systems and educational DVDs.

UDT Continues to Receive Orders for Products Designed to Detect and Mitigate the Spread of MRSA
LOS ANGELES-Thursday, December 6, 2007-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, issued an analysis of the recent spread of Community Associated Methicillin-Resistant StaphylococcusAureus (CA-MRSA). UDTT has licensed technologies that could detect airborne MRSA in an indoor environment and is currently marketing products that eliminate MRSA on surfaces. The Company has received several orders for its products and is in the process of launching a larger marketing campaign.
Traditionally, MRSA infections occurred exclusively in hospitals and were limited to immunecompromised patients or individuals with predisposing risk factors. However, recently there has been an alarming epidemic caused by community-associated (CA)-MRSA strains, which can cause severe infections that can even result death in otherwise healthy adults outside of healthcare settings. The CA-MRSA is more virulent than the hospital strain and has been responsible for numerous infections in schools throughout the country.
"The spread of CA-MRSA outside the hospital environment is of significant concern," said Mr. Amir Ettehadieh UDTT's Director of Research and Development. "Environments that are vulnerable to CA-MRSA such as schools, nursing homes and prisons should implement systems to detect and eliminate MRSA before widespread infections," he added.

Universal Detection Technology Granted Patent for Bioterrorism Detection Technology
LOS ANGELES-Monday, December 10, 2007-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that the Patent for Company's Anthrax Detection technology used in its BSM-2000 system was granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
The Patent is for an invention titled "bacterial endospore quantification using lanthanide dipicolinate luminescence" and has been filed under USPTO Number 7,306,930. The inventor is Dr. Adrian Ponce, the Deputy Manager for the Planetary Science and Life Detection Section at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
This patent describes a method for detecting bacterial endospores in a medium, the method comprising the steps of:
a) Combining a lanthanide with a medium to be analyzed for bacterial endospore content, the lanthanide reacting with the bacterial endospores if present in the medium to form a lanthanide chelate;
b) Exciting any lanthanide chelate formed in said step (a) with an excitation energy distinctive of the lanthanide chelate;
c) Sensing whether emission occurs at an emission wavelength distinctive of the lanthanide chelate as a result of the excitation in said step (b); and
d) Determining whether bacterial endospores are present in the medium, based on said step (c).
UDTT licensed the patented technology from the California Institute of Technology and in 2004 commercialized the technology into the BSM-2000 autonomous detector for airborne anthrax spores. UDTT announced the sales of two units to the Government of the United Kingdom in 2006.
The United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) conducted a study of the technology in 2003 and concluded that the technology would be a lot cheaper to operate to the current DNA analysis units at use at U.S. Postal facilities. The technology has also been evaluated in numerous peer reviewed scientific journals such as IEEE Magazine. The technology was also featured in the 2005 edition of NASA's Spinoff magazine that highlights significant technologies that were commercialized through NASA's technology transfer program.
"We are proud to announce the granting of the patent by the USPTO. This is a major milestone in the development of the technology and for our Company," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We also have several other technologies that are in the process of patent approval and we will continue to license more technologies and build up our technology portfolio," he added

I hope this is the beginning of a great run of sales for UDTT. This is a $50,000 contract so I don't think the earth will move but they certainly seem to be doing things right, just slowly. Stock has been down lately to be expected in this market. It will be interesting to see if they get any play from this release tomorrow.

More news for UDTT, also received a contract for Plague detection kits from Security Solutions International on Tuesday. Their progress is slow but pretty steady and the stock has been down lately but in this market I wouldn't expect to see anything without news of a major contract. SSI does training seminars for law enforcement and for the military and uses UDTT's products in their programs. There is an upcoming program scheduled in Isreal. They also offer UDTT's products for sale on their web site. This is a long term bet for me and I don't expect any major moves overnight but I think they are in an industry that will see it's day soon. Not a bad lottery ticket for a potfolio.

Universal Detection Technology Comments on Installation of More Bioterrorism Sensors on Streets of New York City
Wednesday January 23, 7:00 am ET
New York City Wants More Bioterrorism Sensors Installed on City Streets; DHS, Which Funds 90 Percent of the Program, Says It Is Willing to Install a Few of the Units
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 23, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, commented on recent requests made by New York City to install more bioterrorism sensors on city streets.
ADVERTISEMENT
In a recent move, New York City is asking for more bioterror sensors installed on city streets. City officials now battle with the federal government over the number of sensors. The officials want more of the units, which cost $100,000 each, but DHS officials, which funds 90 percent of the units' cost, say they prefer to wait for even newer technology, saying the government wants "accurate and affordable" bioterrorism protection for all cities. "It needs to be better," Russ Knocke, a spokesman for the DHS, said of the current units. Their technology was developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California. "The technology we currently have is very cost prohibitive for any wide-scale deployments," he said.
Universal Detection Technology's BSM-2000 is designed to be an autonomous real-time air monitor. The underlying technology is utilized in NASA's planetary protection program and the device is designed to act as a first line of defense against a potential bioterrorism event. UDTT believes that its BSM-2000 can overcome the cost-prohibitive problem that is associated with present real-time bioterrorism detection technologies. BSM-2000 is relatively inexpensive to maintain and is ideal for continuous monitoring of air for abnormal levels of bacterial spores, such as anthrax. Universal Detection Technology has commercialized the technology and has had some sales and is also looking to further enhance the systems capabilities to act as a front end trigger or alert to an attack of bioterrorism.
"NYC's request for more biosensors underscores the reality of the threat of bioterrorism. Our technology which was developed at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has been designed to work quickly as an early-warning system of bacterial spores," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer.

UDTT seems to me to be a longer term project than other penny stocks I have worked over the years. This is part hunch and part observation on my part and you have to make your own assesment but it appears to me that the slower growth of this company is a healthy sign. They are building a customer base and if they can attract a decent contract either here in the US or in the Middle East or now in China it could very well put them on the map.
Like I said this is a lottery ticket of sorts and if you work it right you can eventually be playing mostly with house money. Most penny stocks spike rapidly and then fade back into the woodwork and that may happen here but I believe that this is a slower but more sustainable return on investment. Use your own judgement and do what feels right for you, for me this is interesting to watch and as I said before the market for these products is here now and growing.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order from Burbank Fire Department for Bioterrorism Detection Kits
Burbank Fire Department to Purchase Detection Kits Capable of Detecting Anthrax, Ricin Toxin, Botulinum Toxin, Plague, and SEBs
LOS ANGELES-Wednesday, February 06, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has received a purchase order from the Burbank Fire Department for its bioterrorism detection kits.
This and more recent sales of UDTT's biological weapons detection kits come at the heels of a congressionally commissioned report released on Thursday which, according to the Washington Post, reported that the US military's lack of "sufficient[ly] trained, ready forces available" to respond to nuclear, biological or chemical attacks "is an appalling gap that places the nation and its citizens at greater risk." More recently, on Sunday, the Los Angeles Times touched on more troubling news regarding Al Qaeda's regenerated capabilities to do research and development on weapons of mass destruction. Despite claims by Pakistani officials in 2006 that an elusive Egyptian terrorist, believed to be an expert in chemical weapons had been killed in US air strikes, "current and former US intelligence officials now believe that the Egyptian, Aby Khabab Masri, is alive and well and in charge of resurrecting Al Qaeda's program to develop or obtain weapons of mass destruction.
"It is now widely believed that Al Qaeda has regenerated at least some of the robust research and development efforts lost when the US attacked Afghanistan and that it is now once again trying to obtain weapons of mass destruction," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We, at UDTT, have constantly warned about the deadly and devastating effects of such an attack for years. It is only through constant assessment and enhancement of our safety and security protocols and technologies that we, as a nation, can stay ahead of the threat. We need to expect the unexpected and do all in our power to equip our men and women in the uniform as well as on our streets with devices and technologies that can potentially save their lives and countless others. We are delighted to see that more and more agencies are showing interest in our counter terrorism technologies and we welcome the Burbank Fire Department as a user of UDTT's detection kits," he added.
The City of Burbank located to the north of downtown Los Angeles has a population of 105,000 and is home to several major Hollywood studios such as ABC, NBC, Nickelodeon, The Walt Disney Company, and Warner Bros. TheBob Hope Airport which services 4.9 million travelers per year with seven carriers, with over 70 flights daily is also located in the City of Burbank.

Researchers at Wayne State University School of Medicine treated Agar Plates with different amounts of the Silver Anti-bacterial spray. The researchers also used Agar Plates that were untreated as controls for the experiment. In the course of the experiment all the plates were exposed to bacteria from human cough and sneeze and also exposure to the ambient air. The plates were all placed in an incubator at 37 degrees Celsius. After 4 days the untreated plates had colony growth while the plates treated with the spray remained sterile for up to 6 weeks even with repeated exposure.
"The report shows the immense potential of our Silver Product Line in combating the spread of harmful bacteria such as MRSA," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We plan to market our product to facilities where people gather and where maintaining a sterile environment is an issue such as schools, hospitals, and assisted living centers," he added.
According to a November 2007 paper published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the MRSA microbe, a strain of a once harmless staph bacterium that has become invulnerable to first-line antibiotics, is responsible for more than 94,000 serious infections and nearly 19,000 deaths each year. Recent reports also indicate the spread of MRSA into the nation's schools, hospitals and assisted living facilities.
UDTT is a supplier of counter terrorism services and technologies to private and government organizations. The Company owns the license to a patented technology developed at NASA's JPL and utilized in UDTT's BSM-2000 used for autonomous monitoring of the air for presence of airborne bacterial spores such as anthrax. UDTT also supplies detection kits for detection of up to 5 bioterrorism agents. Among the Company's other products are radiation detection systems, educational material & training DVDs, and antimicrobial chemicals.

Universal Detection Technology Comments on Recently Reported Fatality Caused by MRSA Induced Pneumonia
Tuesday February 26, 7:00 am ET
Universal Detection Technology's Anti-Microbial Product Line Designed to Eliminate MRSA
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Feb 26, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, commented today on the recent report of a fatality caused by Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus (MRSA) induced pneumonia of a student at Western Washington University. UDT recently launched a new hub for online sales and marketing of anti-microbial products that eliminate harmful bacteria such as MRSA.
The 20-year-old student was admitted to the intensive care unit at St. Joseph Hospital in Washington on February 14th after experiencing two weeks of coughing that progressed to fever, vomiting and coughing up blood. Doctors gave him antibiotics, but they were unable to help the young man, who eventually died.
Pneumonia caused by MRSA is a recent phenomenon, only being recognized as a confirmed strain 5 years ago. Adding to this growing concern is the fact that over the last number of years the MRSA bug has been moving out of nursing home and hospital settings and into public places such as schools. This is the second reported death of a student from MRSA in the last year. MRSA is responsible for more than 94,000 serious infections and nearly 19,000 deaths each year.
"The recent spread of MRSA to schools is very alarming," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "Our line of anti-microbial products consisting of various sprays, foggers and detergents are designed to eliminate surfaces and keep them sterile for a period following application," he added.

Universal Detection Technology Inks Contract to Bring EPA Approved Anti-MRSA Products to Market
Wednesday February 27, 4:12 pm ET
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has inked a deal to market a line of Anti-Microbial Products approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Product is designed to kill 99.9% of bacteria including Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus (MRSA), E.coli, Norovirus, and Salmonella.
MRSA is usually transmitted by direct skin-to-skin contact or contact with shared items or surfaces that have come into contact with someone else's infection (e.g., towels, used bandages). There has been an increase in the spread of MRSA infections in the past few years and the recent death of a student at Western Washington University is very alarming as the student was without history of hospitalization, surgery, dialysis, or residency in a long-term care facility in the past year. This phenomenon, referred to as community-acquired MRSA or CA-MRSA, is responsible for an increasing number of infections and fatalities.
Removing mold, mildew and bacteria can involve strong chemicals that can trigger health problems. Vital Oxide controls mold and bacteria by oxidizing instead of bleaching it. It is so mild you can wash your hands with it but tough on mold and bacteria anywhere you find it, in your home, office, school or church. Use it in shower stalls, under sinks, in basements and crawl spaces anywhere mold and bacteria is found or likely to live. In recent tests, Vital Oxide kept mold from growing on ceiling tile for 7 months. This EPA registered product is colorless, odorless and will not harm water-safe fabrics. Simply spray, lightly scrub to remove stains, rinse with water, and re-spray for protection.
``The introduction of the new EPA approved anti-microbial spray and fogger to our product line, augments our current anti-microbial products and services,'' said Mr. Jacques Tizabi UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. ``We will continue to market these products to all venues that are vulnerable to community-acquired MRSA. We expect that having our products EPA-approved will appeal to a larger customer base,'' he added.

Universal Detection Technology's Analysis of the Recent Ricin Incident in Las Vegas
Universal Detection Technology Is a Supplier of Rapid Ricin Detection Kits
LOS ANGELES-Friday, February 29, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News), (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, issued an analysis of the recent ricin incident in Las Vegas. Police in Las Vegas said a man is in critical condition after being found unconscious in a motel room with a powder suspected of being the poison ricin.
Police have cordoned off the area and isolated the room where the substance was found and three motel employees and another person were quarantined and decontaminated at the site, then taken to hospitals for further testing, authorities said. Three police officers who had been exposed were also taken to hospitals. However, the man believed to be living in the room with the toxin is in critical condition
Ricin is a toxin that can be made from the waste left over from processing castor beans. It is one of the most toxic and easily produced plant toxins. If injected, as little as 500 micrograms of ricin could be enough to kill an adult; some animal research indicates that similar amounts could be lethal, if inhaled. Ricin has been used in the past as a bioterrorist weapon and remains a serious threat.
"The Las Vegas incident is of serious concern as ricin is one of the most toxic substances known to man. A small amount of ricin, the size the head of a pin is enough to kill a man." said Mr. Amir Ettehadieh, UDTT's Director of Research and Development. "Our detection kits are designed to detect for the presence of ricin toxin in less than 15 minutes," he added.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Order for Ricin Detection Kits
Monday March 3, 4:06 pm ET
Recent Threats Increase Demand for Company's Ricin Detection Kits
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 3, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has received orders for its ricin detection kits after the recent ricin incident in Las Vegas. Last week police in Las Vegas said a man is in critical condition after being found unconscious in a motel room with a powder suspected of being the poison ricin.
Investigators were still trying to figure out a mystery about how a rare, deadly poison was brought to a motel in Las Vegas, authorities said on Saturday. Adding to the mystery, police said firearms and an "anarchist type textbook" were found in the same room where the ricin was discovered two days later. After authorities seized the book and weapons, tests for ricin were conducted but came back negative, according to Las Vegas police Capt. Joseph Lombardo. The deadly substance was found in several vials of powder in a plastic bag in the room on Thursday.
Ricin is a toxin that can be made from the waste left over from processing castor beans. It is one of the most toxic and easily produced plant toxins. If injected, as little as 500 micrograms of ricin could be enough to kill an adult; some animal research indicates that similar amounts could be lethal, if inhaled. Ricin has been used in the past as a bioterrorist weapon and remains a serious threat.
"The recent incident indicates that the threat of terrorism with unconventional weapons is a reality that we live with in today's world," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "Although no direct links to terrorism has been yet drawn in this recent case in Las Vegas, it is important to note that hazardous materials in the hands of domestic terrorists can be a very serious threat. We are proud to supply cutting edge detection technologies to first responders who are the first to come to close contact with such chemical and biological substances," he added.

Universal Detection Technology Receives First Purchase Order for Bioterrorism Detection Devices From China
Wednesday March 19, 4:00 pm ET
Kits Provide Detection of Anthrax, Ricin, and Other Toxins
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 19, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has received a purchase order from its Chinese distributor for bioterrorism detection kits.
The purchase order has been placed by Kadinuo Science and Technology in Beijing. Kadinuo Science and Technology has been active in introduction and promotion of advanced radiation instruments in the Chinese market for over 10 years. Presently, the company is a strong regional supplier of emergency nuclear monitors, environmental radiation monitors, decontamination technologies, and the like.

This is obviously a very large market and like any other has security concerns, relating to threat of Biological Weapons and Toxins and we are glad to be providing our solutions in countering these threats," said Jacques Tizabi, CEO of Universal Detection Technology.
There have been recent reports of terrorist activity in China. The Chinese Government has warned that terrorists pose the biggest risk to this summer's Olympic Games in Beijing. Officials say they foiled two plots, one to bring down an airliner, and another to disrupt the summer games. The Chinese government has also stepped up efforts in bio-security to ward off possible bioterrorism during the coming Olympics.
A biological attack can be carried out by a single individual that aims to disrupt society. The latest ricin incident in Las Vegas illustrates how a terrorist equipped with just an anarchist handbook and castor beans made one of the deadliest poisons known to man with the intend to cause harm.
UDTT is a supplier of counter terrorism services and technologies to private and government organizations. The Company owns the license to a patented technology developed at NASA's JPL and utilized in UDTT's BSM-2000 used for autonomous monitoring of the air for presence of airborne bacterial spores such as anthrax.

Kadinuo Science and Technology has been active in introduction and promotion of advanced radiation instruments in the Chinese market for over 10 years. Presently, the company is a strong regional supplier of emergency nuclear monitors, environmental radiation monitors, decontamination technologies, and the like.
"This is the second purchase order we have received from our Chinese distributor pursuant to our recent agreement. The first order was related to our line of bioterrorism detection products. We look forward to establishing an effective and long term relationship with Kadinuo and to use their influence to find a market for our products and services in China both in the counter-terrorism market and in the anti-microbial market," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chairman and CEO.
Studies show that China has the highest rate of antibiotic resistant bacteria stains in the world. The World Health Organization West Pacific Regional Office has set up two antimicrobial resistance surveillance centers in Beijing and Shanghai. Data from the offices show the prevalence of both hospital-acquired and community acquired MRSA strains in both cities. Moreover, the breakout of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in the spring of 2003 illustrates how an infectious disease with limited therapeutic options can spread rapidly across national borders. Rapidly increasing travel and migration within China probably contributes to the growth of that nation's resistance problem. It may also spur the spread of China's resistance problems overseas as globalization greatly increases travel from and to that nation.
UDTT is a supplier of counter terrorism services and technologies to private and government organizations.

Universal Detection Technology's Vital Oxide, Line of Anti MRSA Products, One of the Most Effective in the Industry
Monday March 31, 4:07 pm ET
EPA Registered Products Effective in Killing MRSA Bacteria, Recently Chosen by Princeton University Staff to Protect Against MRSA Outbreaks in Gyms and Locker Rooms
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 31, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that its line of Anti-Microbial Products approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is one of the most effective cleaners and odor eliminators in the market.
UDTT's broad spectrum disinfectant kills 99.9% of bacteria and is a green alternative to chlorine bleach and alcohol based disinfectants. In a study conducted in 2007, Vital Oxide demonstrated no growth of Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) in any of the 10 primary subculture tubes and no growth in any of the 10 secondary subculture tubes following a ten minute exposure period at 19° c. The conclusion of the study was that under the conditions of the investigation, Vital Oxide demonstrated efficacy against MRSA as required by the US Environmental Protection Agency for disinfectant label claims following a ten minute exposure period at 19° c.
The Vital Oxide disinfectant was recently chosen by Princeton University staff to protect against MRSA outbreaks in gyms and locker rooms. UDTT also recently received a purchase order from China for Vital Oxide. The areas of use include hospitals, schools and universities, powerboats, sailboats, cruise ships, restaurants, hotel rooms, office buildings, gyms, building materials, movie theatres, public transportation infrastructure, and homes.
"Vital Oxide is an effective disinfectant that can be used in various scenarios to reduce and sometimes eliminate the chance of contracting antibiotic resistant germs. With the recent cases of such infections on the rise, we are excited to have a solution that's effective and easy to apply," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "Our product is designed to kill 99.9% of bacteria including Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus (MRSA), E.coli, Norovirus, and Salmonella," he added.
MRSA is usually transmitted by direct skin-to-skin contact or contact with shared items or surfaces that have come into contact with someone else's infection (e.g., towels, used bandages). There has been an increase in the spread of MRSA infections in the past few years and the recent death of a student at Western Washington University is very alarming as the student was without history of hospitalization, surgery, dialysis, or residency in a long-term care facility in the past year. This phenomenon, referred to as community-acquired MRSA or CA-MRSA, is responsible for an increasing number of infections and fatalities.
Removing mold, mildew and bacteria can involve strong chemicals that can trigger health problems. UDTT's new line of anti MRSA products, Vital Oxide, controls mold and bacteria by oxidizing instead of bleaching it. It is so mild you can wash your hands with it but is tough on mold and bacteria anywhere you find it, in your home, office, school or church. In recent tests, Vital Oxide kept mold from growing on ceiling tile for 7 months. This EPA registered product is colorless, odorless and will not harm water-safe fabrics. UDTT has also started to supply mini and electrostatic foggers used for professional level sanitizing needs. The Company's electrostatic sprayer is state-of-the-art. Disinfecting large areas and buildings including schools and hospitals of MRSA and other bacteria is significantly easier with UDTT's portable electrostatic sprayer. It disperses billions of nano-sized particles in a magnetized cloud that envelops and adheres to every surface.

Universal Detection Technology Represented Its BSM-2000, Real-Time Bacterial Spore Monitor, to the US Congress, Committee on Homeland Security
Wednesday April 2, 4:00 pm ET
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 2, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and a provider of counter terrorism training and solutions, announced today that it represented its BSM-2000 to the Congress at the technology fair held in the Rayburn Foyer located within the Rayburn House Building.
The technology fair was sponsored by the Committee on Homeland Security. UDTT was among the 15 companies invited to present its bioterrorism detection technology. Other presenters included the Department of Homeland Security, SAIC, RAE Systems, and Smiths Detection.
UDTT's BSM-2000 combines a bioaerosol capture device with a simple and robust chemical test for bacterial spores that is completely automated. We propose to use the BSM-2000 as a front-end monitor to the Biohazard Detection System (BDS) or any other Secondary monitor with the promise of drastically reducing the recurring operating costs for anthrax screening at postal facilities and any other facility where bio-terrorism is of concern.
In general, the principle of operation for the BSM-2000 consists of 1) monitoring the air for changes in bacterial spore concentration, and 2) when a change in bacterial spore concentration is greater than the natural variations, then the BSM-2000 triggers the expensive BDS unit to validate the result. Alternatively, the BSM-2000 alarm could prompt a technician to perform other confirmatory tests such as traditional culturing or immunoassays, which is reminiscent of a smoke alarm signaling the fire department.
"We are honored to have had the opportunity to present our detection methodology to the Congressional Committee on Homeland Security as well as to our colleagues in the Homeland Security Sector and are very delighted by the feedback we received at the technology fair," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's CEO.

Early Wednesday morning, authorities at the Port of Long Beach in California investigated a cargo container marked with graffiti saying "Anthrax a gift from Osama." Long Beach Fire Battalion Chief Frank Hayes said a truck hauling the container was stopped at a terminal around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday because of the spray-painted graffiti.
The truck driver told authorities the container was picked up in nearby Wilmington and was empty. The container was moved to an isolated area of the port for inspection and hazardous materials crews wearing oxygen tanks and protective suits have opened it. Authorities say there are no evacuations and terminal operations are continuing.
On a separate occasion on March 31st in a chilling sign that Islamist terrorists continue seeking weapons of mass destruction, a jihadist website posted instructions on making deadly anthrax for biological weapons. The website disclosed illustrated instructions and included additional links and promised to provide information on a delivery system in the future, a Cessna airplane.

Does anyone else share my feelings about investing in a company that will essentially profit from terrorism? I am just unsure I can do this. My personal opinion is that the whole terrorism thing is a farce anyway, but still, this company will make money if there's a real or another gulf-of-Tonkin attack and I'm not sure I could live with that. Thoughts??

I would agree that UDTT is a company that would not do well in an environment of peace and tranquility in the world. It would certainly be my wish that they would experience a need to change their business model and start producing smoke detectors but the reality is that these are the times we live in. Universal Detection does not support terrorism, on the contrary they develop products that make it more difficult for those that would wish to do harm to carry out their plans. You present a moral argument that is flawed in that you suggest the company is somehow tied to terrorist activity and even may be hoping for some catastrophic event to further their sales. I believe they are in the business of aiding in the protection of folks that do not wish to harm anyone.
Do you invest in oil companies, drug companies, tobacco companies, alcohol distribution companies……..? Are you opposed to investing in equipment manufacturers that aid in the destruction of wildlife habitat and help to create cities that add to pollution? It is my opinion that you need to rethink your position here.

Universal Detection Technology Analyzes the Recent Budget Increase of the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Health Affairs
Tuesday April 8, 7:00 am ET
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 8, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and a provider of counter terrorism training and solutions, provided an analysis of the Recent Budget Increase of the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Health Affairs. On April 1, 2007, assistant Secretary and Chief Medical Officer Jeffery Runge, M.D. gave testimony to the House Committee on Appropriations, Subcommittee on Homeland Security on the performance and activities of the Office of Health Affairs.
The Office of the Chief Medical Officer and for the Office of Health Affairs (OHA) was formed as part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in improving the medical and health security of the Nation. This new Office was established to fill gaps the Department identified in the areas of weapons of mass destruction(WMD) and biodefense operations, planning and readiness, and the health and safety of the DHS workforce. The OHA is assigned to oversee the deployment of automated detection equipment for early warning of a release of an aerosolized biological agent.
The 2009 OHA budget calls for $111.6 million to be used in early detection and warning against biological attacks in over 30 of the Nation's highest-risk urban areas through placement of a series of biological pathogen detectors. Deployment of such technology is critical to the Nation's security as the detection of a biological pathogen, such as aerosolized anthrax, at the earliest stages of release is critical to successful treatment of the affected population. Early detection and warning of a biological attack is essential for the rapid identification of the bioagent, which allows prophylactic treatment and prevention of casualties, provides forensic evidence to law enforcement on the source and nature of the attack, and demonstrates a spatial distribution of contamination and population exposure.
Earlier last week, UDTT was invited to a technology fair a by the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security, to present the technology deployed in its BSM-2000 airborne anthrax detector. The technology fair focused on educating members and staff of the U.S. House of Representatives on current homeland security technologies available to successfully detect and respond to acts of bioterrorism.
"This BSM-2000 is a perfect fit for the Office of Health Affairs early detection needs," said Mr. Amir Ettehadieh, UDTT Director of Research and Development. "With the positive reception we received at last week's tech fair we hope that our technology will be recognized by key members of the DHS," he added.
UDTT's BSM-2000 combines a bioaerosol capture device with a simple and robust chemical test for bacterial spores that is completely automated. We propose to use the BSM-2000 as a front-end monitor to the Biohazard Detection System (BDS) or any other Secondary monitor with the promise of drastically reducing the recurring operating costs for anthrax screening at postal facilities and any other facility where bio-terrorism is of concern.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order From Quiznos Restaurant Franchise for Anti MRSA Decontamination System
Tuesday April 8, 4:00 pm ET
Purchase Order Received for UDTT's EPA Registered Products Effective in Killing MRSA Bacteria and Company's Mini Fogger Used for Applying Anti MRSA Products
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 8, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has received its second purchase order from a Quiznos Restaurant franchise. The purchase order is for UDTT's line of Anti-Microbial Products approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Company's mini fogger used for applying those products.
UDTT's broad spectrum disinfectant kills 99.9% of bacteria and is a green alternative to chlorine bleach and alcohol based disinfectants. In a study conducted in 2007, Vital Oxide demonstrated no growth of Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) in any of the 10 primary subculture tubes and no growth in any of the 10 secondary subculture tubes following a ten minute exposure period at 19°c. The conclusion of the study was that under the conditions of the investigation, Vital Oxide demonstrated efficacy against MRSA as required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for disinfectant label claims following a ten minute exposure period at 19°c.
The Vital Oxide disinfectant was recently chosen by Princeton University staff to protect against MRSA outbreaks in gyms and locker rooms. UDTT also recently received a purchase order from China for Vital Oxide. The areas of use include hospitals, schools and universities, powerboats, sailboats, cruise ships, restaurants, hotel rooms, office buildings, gyms, building materials, movie theatres, public transportation infrastructure, and homes.
"We are excited to have this order from such a well known franchise," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We see a large market for anti-MRSA products and are pleased to be participating in it," he added.
MRSA is usually transmitted by direct skin-to-skin contact or contact with shared items or surfaces that have come into contact with someone else's infection (e.g., towels, used bandages). There has been an increase in the spread of MRSA infections in the past few years and the recent death of a student at Western Washington University is very alarming as the student was without history of hospitalization, surgery, dialysis, or residency in a long-term care facility in the past year. This phenomenon, referred to as community-acquired MRSA or CA-MRSA, is responsible for an increasing number of infections and fatalities. Studies performed by the Center for Disease Control also show that MRSA can cause gastroenteritis if the area where food is prepared or people who handle food are contaminated with MRSA. The CDC study is another example of the recent spread of CA-MRSA.
Removing mold, mildew and bacteria can involve strong chemicals that can trigger health problems. UDTT's new line of anti-MRSA product, Vital Oxide, controls mold and bacteria by oxidizing instead of bleaching it. It is so mild you can wash your hands with it but tough on mold and bacteria anywhere you find it, in your home, office, school or church. In recent tests, Vital Oxide kept mold from growing on ceiling tile for 7 months. This EPA registered product is colorless, odorless and will not harm water-safe fabrics. UDTT has also started to supply mini and electrostatic foggers used for professional level sanitizing needs. The Company's electrostatic sprayer is state-of-the-art. Disinfecting large areas and buildings including schools and hospitals of MRSA and other bacteria is significantly easier with UDTT's portable electrostatic sprayer. It disperses billions of nano-sized particles in a magnetized cloud that envelops and adheres to every surface.

Company's Recent Purchase Orders From China Spark Interest in Chinese Community
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 10, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and a provider of counter terrorism training and solutions, announced that the Company has recently been featured on a Chinese Language Television Channel, LA18.
With the coming of Chinese Olympics games, Chinese authorities and companies have become very interested in cutting edge technologies for bioterrorism detection. UDTT has recently received purchase orders for five-agent bioterrorism detection kits and antimicrobial products from Kadinuo Science and Technology in Beijing. Kadinuo Science and Technology has been active in introduction and promotion of advanced radiation instruments in the Chinese market for over 10 years. Presently, the company is a strong regional supplier of emergency nuclear monitors, environmental radiation monitors, decontamination technologies, and the like.
Following UDTT's recent expansion to the Chinese market, the Company has been featured on LA18, Chinese language television. There have been recent reports of terrorist activity in China. The Chinese Government has warned that terrorists pose the biggest risk to this summer's Olympic Games in Beijing. Officials say they foiled two plots, one to bring down an airliner, and another to disrupt the summer games. The Chinese government has also stepped up efforts in bio-security to ward off possible bioterrorism during the coming Olympics.
A Biological attack can be carried out by a single individual that aims to disrupt society. The latest ricin incident in Las Vegas illustrates how a terrorist equipped with just an anarchist handbook and castor beans made one of the deadliest poisons known to man with the intend to cause harm.
Last week, UDTT was invited to a technology fair a by the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security, to present the technology deployed in its BSM-2000 airborne anthrax detector. The technology fair focused on educating members and staff of the U.S. House of Representatives on current homeland security technologies available to successfully detect and respond to acts of bioterrorism.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order for Anthrax Detection Kits From Israeli Security Firm
Thursday April 10, 4:00 pm ET
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 10, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UDTT.OB - News) (Frankfurt:PO8.F - News), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has received purchase orders for its Anthrax kits from an Israeli Security Firm. The purchase order was placed by an Israeli Security Firm active in providing security solutions to clients all over Israel.
The Israeli government as well as private security firms are actively improving their preparedness for a bioterror attack as the potential threat of a bioterror attack from terror organizations and states with active biological weapon programs, such as Syria, grows. As an example, large numbers of the Israeli population have received smallpox inoculations.
UDTT's anthrax detection kits have provided accurate results to users in the field in as little as three minutes. The kits have been purchased by first responders throughout the country as well as the U.S. Army. The kits are able to detect anthrax spores well below the threshold for an infectious dose.
"The purchase order from Israel is a milestone for us as we our providing detection kits to a firm that deals with terrorist-related activities on a weekly basis," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We plan to expand our efforts in providing detection solutions to our partner in Israel," he added.

Form 10KSB for UNIVERSAL DETECTION TECHNOLOGY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14-Apr-2008
Annual Report
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements provided in this annual report on Form 10-KSB. Certain statements contained herein may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, as discussed more fully herein.
The forward-looking information set forth in this annual report is as of the date of this filing, and we undertake no duty to update this information. More information about potential factors that could affect our business and financial results is included in the section entitled "Risk Factors" of this annual report.
OVERVIEW
We are engaged in the research, development, and marketing of bioterrorism detection devices. Our strategy is to identify qualified strategic partners with whom to collaborate in order to develop commercially viable bioterrorism detection devices. Consistent with this strategy, in August 2002, we entered into a Technology Affiliates Agreement with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, commonly referred to as JPL, to develop technology for our bioterrorism detection equipment. Under the Technology Affiliates Agreement, JPL developed its proprietary bacterial spore detection technology and integrated it into our existing aerosol monitoring system, resulting in a product named BSM-2000. BSM-2000 is designed to provide continuous unattended monitoring of airborne bacterial spores in large public places, with real-time automated alert functionality. The device is designed to detect an increase in the concentration of bacterial spores, which is indicative of a potential presence of Anthrax.
Our management continues to gain expertise in anti-terrorism techniques and solutions. Through our partnership with Security Solutions International, we have begun providing training seminars on terrorism detection and response methods. The seminars are designed for security officials, building safety managers, and law enforcement personnel. Through partnerships with various third parties, we have commenced sales and marketing of bioterrorism detection kits, radiation detection systems, anti-microbial products, surveillance cameras, and training references.
In 2007 we have realized revenues of $8,011 from sales. We have incurred losses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 in the approximate amounts of $3.6 and $2.7 million, respectively, and have an accumulated deficit of $36 million as of December 31, 2007. At December 31, 2007, we were in default on certain debt obligations totaling approximately $331,000, in addition to accumulated interest of approximately $392,000. We require approximately $1.4 million in the next 12 months to repay debt obligations. We do not anticipate that our cash on hand is adequate to meet our operating expenses over the next 12 months. In addition, we do not have adequate capital to repay all of our debt currently due and becoming due in the next 12 months. We principally expect to raise funds through the sale of equity or debt securities. However, during the past 12 months, management spent the substantial majority of its time on sales and marketing of Company's products and services in target markets. These activities diverted management from the time it otherwise would spend negotiating sales of securities to raise capital. In addition, the recent price and volume volatility in the common stock has made it more difficult for management to negotiate sales of its securities at a fair price. We actively continue to pursue additional equity or debt financing, but cannot provide any assurances that it will be successful. If we are unable to pay our debts as they becomes due and are unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, we will not be able to accomplish any or all of our initiatives and will be forced to consider other alternatives.
In May 2004, we unveiled the first functional prototype of BSM-2000. The prototype operated on external software. In July 2004, we commenced simulated tests with benign bacterial spores having anthrax-like properties in order to fine tune our product. The use of benign spores is as effective as testing with anthrax spores because our device is designed to detect an increase in bacterial spore concentration levels. Based on results we obtained, we were able to enhance the sensitivity of BSM-2000 by improving the sample collection efficiency of the device, and made certain other modifications to improve efficiency. While more testing and development is needed to enhance the performance of our BSM-2000 and to make it more user-friendly, the device is a functional product, available for sale.
Starting in 2006, we followed a diversification strategy pursuant to which we have added various other services to our BSM-2000, biological detection system. By combining our in-house experience and knowledge and outside expertise offered by various consultants and third parties, we have added threat evaluation and consulting services, training courses, and event security to our services. We have also started sales and marketing of security and counter-terrorism products including bioterrorism detection kits, surveillance cameras, radiation detection systems, anti-microbial products, and training references. Some of our products and services have not been sold to date and there is no guarantee that any of them will be demanded and sold in the market in the future.
We plan to seek and find third parties interested in collaborating on further research and development on BSM-2000. Such research shall be aimed at making BSM-2000 more user-friendly, developing a less complicated interface and software, designing a lighter casing, and some cosmetics. The ideal third party collaborator would also assist us in marketing BSM-2000 more aggressively. There is no guarantee that any such collaborators will be found and, if found, that this strategy will be successful. The current version of BSM-2000 is fully functional and available for sale. To date, we have sold two units to the Government of the United Kingdom and we intend to develop a more wide-spread use for BSM-2000 through our planned collaborative research, development, sales, and marketing efforts.
Our list price for BSM-2000 is $109,000. The manufacturing of BSM-2000 is outsourced to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM). We do not have any in-house manufacturing capabilities and do not intend to develop any until we reach high volumes of sales for BSM-2000 that would justify such facilities. To date we have used services of 2 OEMs for manufacturing of our units. We may decide to use services of other manufacturers in the future.
In March 2006, we received a firm order from the government of the United Kingdom for two units of UDTT's BSM-2000 Anthrax Detection Systems. We have shipped both units and payment for both has been received. Due to confidentiality of the purchase order, we are unable to release the specific use and the name of the branch of government that has made the purchase.
While we initially planned to secure and lease a testing facility close to the JPL laboratories where we would be able to implement a quality assurance program and test our products against the required specifications before shipping them to customers, that plan was never materialized and we do not anticipate to open such facilities in the foreseeable future and unless we receive a substantial order for our BSM-2000.
In February 2006, the Company expanded its relationship with Caltech by licensing additional technologies in the field of microbial monitoring and sterility verification. While the Company plans to commercialize the microbial monitoring technology for use in hospitals, it has not yet started any such activities and there is no guarantee that it will in the near future. The Company also commenced work on developing smart ticket assay for detection of anthrax spores. Smart ticket assays are rapid field tests that are similar to common home pregnancy tests. Further research and development is needed to fully commercialize these smart ticket assays and presently there is no guarantee that the Company will have necessary funding and resources to conduct such research and development. Through parallel efforts for development of its proprietary smart ticket assays, the Company entered an agreement with a third party, whereby it markets and sells lateral flow assays capable of rapid on-site detection of five bioterrorism agents.
PLAN OF OPERATION
In 2007 we have continued to diversify our activities. We plan to engage more in value added services to complement our bioterrorism detection technologies. We now supply our proprietary bacterial spore detection system (BSM-2000), bioterrorism detection kits capable of detecting anthrax, ricin, botulinum, plague, and SEBs, anti microbial products, surveillance cameras, radiation detection systems, and counter-terrorism training references.
We plan to continue expanding our product base and to sell our products to more users inside and outside the U.S. There is no guarantee that we will succeed in implementing this strategy or if implemented, that this strategy will be successful
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We require approximately $3.0 million in the next 12 months to repay debt obligations and execute our business plan. We do not anticipate that our cash on hand is adequate to meet our operating expenses over the next 12 months. Also, we do not believe we have adequate capital to repay all of our debt currently due and becoming due in the next 12 months. We anticipate that our uses of capital during the next 12 months principally will be for:
o administrative expenses, including salaries of officers and other employees we plan to hire;
o repayment of debt;
o sales and marketing;
o product testing and manufacturing; and
o expenses of professionals, including accountants and attorneys.
To maintain our license with Caltech, a minimum annual royalty of $10,000 is due to Caltech on each year on August 1, regardless of any product sales. Any royalties paid from product sales for the 12-month period preceding the date of payment of the minimum annual royalty will be credited against the annual minimum. Pursuant to the terms of the license, we must pay 4% royalties on product sales in countries where a patent is issued and 2% royalties on product sales in countries where a patent is not issued, as well as 35% of net revenues received from sublicensees.
Our working capital deficit at December 31, 2007, was $3,970,410. Our independent auditors' report includes an explanatory paragraph relating to substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, due to our working capital deficit at December 31, 2007. We require approximately $1.9 million to repay indebtedness including interest in the next 12 months. The following provides the principal terms of our outstanding debt as of December 31, 2007:

Management continues to take steps to address the Company's liquidity needs. Recently management concluded discussions with most of our note holders and amended the terms of these notes to provide for extended scheduled payment arrangements. Management continues to seek extensions with respect to debt past due. Management also may seek additional extensions with respect to these notes and the Company's debt as it becomes due. In addition, management may continue to convert some portion of the principal amount and interest on our debt into shares of common stock. During 2007, the Company issued 171,833,805 shares of its common stock for an aggregate value of $345,373 to satisfy outstanding debt and accrued interest.
Historically, we have financed operations through private debt and equity financings. In recent years, financial institutions have been unwilling to lend to us and the cost of obtaining working capital from investors has been expensive. We principally expect to raise funds through the sale of equity or debt securities. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company received gross proceeds of approximately $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively, from the sale of equity and debt securities. The Company actively continues to pursue additional equity or debt financings, but cannot provide any assurance that it will be successful. If we are unable to pay our debt as it becomes due and are unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, we will not be able to accomplish any or all of our initiatives and will be forced to consider steps that would protect our assets against our creditors.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources, and that would be considered material to investors.

Universal Detection Technology's Anti-Microbial Washing Additive Proves Effective against the Re-growth of MRSA
LOS ANGELES-Thursday, May 8, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it's Anti-microbial washing machine additive is effective in sterilizing fabrics and linen from harmful bacteria such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
MRSA is found worldwide, predominantly in hospitals and institutions such as nursing homes. Recently MRSA has also spread in the general community. There are three main reservoirs (and hence sources of spread and infection) for MRSA in hospital and institutions: staff, patients and inanimate objects such as beds, linen and utensils. Hospitals need to take precautions to prevent the spread of MRSA by sterilizing linen and clothing.
MRSA infections occur in approximately 94,000 persons each year and are associated with approximately 19,000 deaths. Of these infections, about 86% are healthcare-associated and 14% are community-associated.
"The spread of MRSA in Hospitals and long term care facilities is of great concern," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We see a large market for anti MRSA products and in particular our Silver additive that not only kills MRSA but also keeps the treated area sterile," he added.
UDTT's Silver Washing Machine Additive when added to the wash cycle gives Long Lasting Anti-microbial Protection to all clothes, bed linen, towels, and fabrics for up to 50 washes. This protection prevents re-growth of bacteria, mold fungi and odors even after extensive use the fabrics remain fresh and free from smells. Experiments by researchers at Wayne State University Medical School show that surfaces treated with the additive remain sterile for up to 6 weeks. The prevention of re-growth of bacteria is a significant step in curtailing the spread of MRSA.

New Gut Superbug Increasingly Responsible For Illness and Death
Universal Detection Technology's Line of Anti-Microbial Products Proven to Eliminate Clostridium Difficile on Surfaces
LOS ANGELES-Thursday, May 29, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today on the increased numbers of illness and death caused by the Clostridium difficile bacteria. UDTT's line of anti-microbial products are proven eliminate Clostridium Difficile on surfaces in both laboratory and filed tests.
According to a new study by the University of Massachusetts, the number of people hospitalized with the dangerous intestinal superbug has been growing by more than 10,000 cases a year. The germ, resistant to some antibiotics, has become a regular menace in hospitals and nursing homes. The study found it played a role in nearly 300,000 hospitalizations in 2005, more than double the number in 2000. Moreover, earlier research concluded the infection is the underlying cause of thousands of deaths annually, and the problem is getting worse. Clostridium difficile has become an acute health concern in Canada, where it was blamed for 260 deaths at seven Ontario hospitals recently, and 2,000 deaths in Quebec since 2002.
The infection, Clostridium difficile, is found in the colon and can cause diarrhea and a more serious intestinal condition known as colitis. It is spread by spores in feces; however, the spores are difficult to kill with most conventional household cleaners or antibacterial soap.
UDTT's Silver Anti-Bac product range has been successfully tested on over 50 different organisms including Clostridium difficile in over 2,000 applications. The products range from surface sprays to washing machine additives and hand creams.
"The increased reports of Clostridium difficile illness and death in the U.S. follows a trend that we have been seeing in the U.K. and Canada," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "Hospitals and Nursing homes need to use the most advanced anti-microbial products to keep the infection from spreading to the patients," he added.

Universal Detection Technology's EPA Approved Vital Oxide Solution Effective Against Salmonella
Treated Food is Safe to Eat Following Application
LOS ANGELES-Thursday, June 12, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that its EPA approved Vital Oxide solution is highly effective against bacteria. Moreover, the treated food is safe to eat following treatment with Vital Oxide.
Salmonella is the most frequently reported cause of foodborne illness. In 1996, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) documented 39,027 cases nationwide. The salmonella bacterium attacks the stomach and intestines. In more serious cases, the bacteria may enter the lymph tracts, which carry water and protein to the blood, and the blood itself. The bacteria attack all age groups and both sexes. Children, the elderly and people who are already ill are much more likely to get a serious infection.
UDTT's broad-spectrum disinfectant kills 99.9% of bacteria and is a green alternative to chlorine bleach and alcohol- based disinfectants. Vital Oxide contains no harmful chemicals. It is not harmful to people, or pets, and is safe for use around food. This multi-purpose product will allow the consumer to discontinue the use of many common household products that contain harmful chemicals. Thus, a safer, healthier home environment is created.
"With the summer season approaching, the incidence of foodborne illness such as Salmonella is on the rise. Our Vital Oxide disinfectant is very effective in eliminating these organisms while leaving the treated food safe for consumption," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer.

The risk in owning a stock like UDTT is the same as any other penny stock. I'ts not an investment it's a lottery ticket. You have to be prepared for the possibility of loosing all of your cash if the company does'nt make it. I have been following UDTT for a long time and they seem to me to be making the right moves and if they can keep their heads above the water line I think they have a shot at success.
They do carry a good bit of debt and are not profitable so you have to examine your own tolerance for risk, but if they can get the gov. to sign on I believe that will be the tipping point for them. Like I said this is a bet, a lottery ticket. Owning this is stricktly a roll of the dice. They could go to a dollar or become dust in the wind, I'm betting on the former or somewhere in between!
Good luck to us!

I found this on the Homeland Security website. I have read other blogs that question UDTT's honesty in reporting progress in their press releases and it concerns me that their sales are not what I would like to see. I have not been able to find any discrepancies in the reports I have read though. I think that they are positioning themselves well but it's hard to say when we will see a contract of meaningful size. The good news is that a one dollar move in the stock would be huge! (.50 would be fine too)

SECURE (System Efficacy through Commercialization, Utilization, Relevance and Evaluation) Program
The SECURE Program is an efficient and cost-effective program to foster cooperative "win-win" partnerships between the Department of Homeland Security and the Private Sector. The Department will work with the Private Sector to develop products, technologies or services aligned to the needs of its Operating Components and First Responder communities. The Department will post detailed operational requirements on this site that detail specific needs in addition to providing a conservative estimate of the Potential Available Market (PAM) of a given product, system or service.
Private Sector entities possessing technologies or products aligned to these requirements can use this valuable information to generate a business case and develop (at their cost) a fully deployable product or service. The Department will assure that the product or service has demonstrated performance that meets a given Private Sector entity's published specifications through our review of third-party independent testing data, provided by the Private Sector entity. This enables the Private Sector, through the free market system, to develop products and services that capture significant revenue opportunities.
The SECURE Program Overview explains the process of becoming a Department partner in the SECURE Program.
The Information Kit (.zip file 20.8MB) contains documents needed for Private Sector organizations to understand and participate in the DHS SECURE Program. It is comprised of: (1) A PowerPoint presentation that briefly summarizes the SECURE Program; (2)A SECURE Concept of Operations document that explains the full overview of the SECURE Program; (3) An Operational Requirements Document (ORD) template is the basis for the ORDs generated by DHS; (4) The High Priority Technology Needs booklet identifies all current Department capability gaps.
For more information on how to get involved in the SECURE Program, please send an e-mail to

SECURE Operational Requirements Documents (ORDs)
ORDs are detailed operational requirements typically associated with capability gaps derived from our Capstone Integrated Product Team (IPT) process. Private Sector organizations that can develop solutions to meet needs articulated in published ORDs are eligible to apply for a partnership with the Department of Homeland Security through the SECURE Program to develop products and/or services.
In addition to the ORDs, conservative estimates of the Potential Available Market (PAM) for a potential solution to a given ORD are posted by the Department below. As previously mentioned, a Private Sector entity may develop and analyze its own business case for a possible partnership with the Department through the SECURE Program.
Blast Resistant Autonomous Video Equipment (BRAVE) ORD (PDF, 9 pages - 598KB)
This ORD describes the requirements for a forensic camera deployed in public transportation vehicles to assist in incident cause analysis. A conservative estimate of 1.5+ million units has been calculated for use of this product in mass transit buses; trolley cars; light, commuter and heavy rail cars; and police cars.

I've been looking into this very closely. They do have a large amount of debt but they have definetly caught the eye of the government. I could see this one going to a 1.00/share by the end of the year. Their reports seem to be accurate to me.

Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com (http://www.udetection.com/)) (OTCBB: UDTT) (FRANKFURT: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received a contract to provide radiation detection equipment (http://www.udetection.com/product.asp?CatID=85) for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The devices are capable of detecting Gamma and Neutron Radiation and are designed to provide portal protection.
The Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (BOCOG) is responsible for all aspects of security for the Olympics. BOCOG plans to deploy 80,000 security personnel for the Olympics. According to Liu Shaowu, the BOCOG security department director, "BOCOG has finished more than 52 schemes and more than 500 specific plans for security, transportation, fire-fighting, anti-terrorism and VIP protection. Beijing will host safe Games."
UDTT will supply equipment that will be used for search and identification of gamma and neutron radioactive materials (http://www.udetection.com/product.asp?CatID=85). The instruments feature the capability to identify the detected isotopes and characterize categories from medical, industrial, natural occurring radioactive materials (NORM) and special nuclear materials (SNM). Because of their high sensitivity, they can be used to verify any alarm triggered by a fix-installed monitor or by a radiation pager, to locate sources, measure radiation levels, and even to identify the detected isotope. The instruments are ideally suited for First Responders, Border Control, Customs inspectors, site security in critical infrastructures, and for all missions related to the control of nuclear materials. When used in concert, the instruments are optimal in providing portal protection for entrances to venues such as sports stadiums and the Olympic village. The device characteristics include:
- Gamma & neutron independent channels- Very high sensitivity, fast response- Relative thresholds to background- Real time rejection of sudden background variation (VBS algorithm)- Automated spectra acquisition on alert and identification (NMD algorithm)- Clear discrimination of risk category- Visual and audible alarms- Wireless communication interface- Designed to meet / exceeds ITRAP and ANSI standards
"The contract for the Beijing Olympics is another significant milestone for our company," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We will continue to pursue clients of this caliber and prestige with our full spectrum of CBRNE detection equipment," he added.

As far as the "news", I was meaning the olympics. The US government is definetly looking at them for contracts. A lot of talk between them right now. The recent filing of a safety plan means they are aggressively looking at doing business. The Olympics is huge news and as long as the contract is filled and the equipment works as promoted, you will see a penny a share by the end of the year. After that, the sky is the limit.

Ok, so say UDTT opens at 0.0004 cents next monday, and I spend 25$ which buys me 62,500 shares. Then the stock jumps to 0.50 cents, and I sell all those shares, does that mean I really would get 31,250$ from 25 dollars? I don't get how penny stocks work. How many shares could i buy at once with Ameritrade regular account? If there is so little to gamble and so much to gain, is there a downside for me investing 25 bucks in them?

Universal Detection Technology Receives Contract to Provide Bioterrorism Detection Equipment for the 2008 Beijing Olympics
Detection Equipment Capable of Detecting Anthrax, Ricin Toxin, Botulinum Toxin, Plague, and SEB's in as little as 3 Minutes
LOS ANGELES-Tuesday, July 22, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received a contract to provide handheld assays for bioterrorism detection for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The handheld devices are designed to detect Anthrax, Ricin, Botulinum Toxin, Plague and SEB's in as little as 3 Minutes.
In an article published in the Homeland Security Daily Wire, the Chinese Minister of Public Security, Mr. Zhou Yongkang, was quoted to say that "terrorism poses the biggest threat to the holding of a successful Beijing Olympic games." Minister Yongkang asked on Monday for closer international collaboration on information sharing and risk analysis. "Although the general security situation for the Beijing Olympics remains stable, we still face the challenges of terrorism, separatism, and extremism," he added. He spoke at the International Conference on Security Cooperation for the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics, which is attended by more than 140 representatives from 32 countries and regions, and international organizations such as Interpol and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
UDTT's 5-agent bioterrorism detection kits have been extensively used by first responders and private industry throughout the country. Testing of the kits by the U.S. DOD as well as the United Kingdom military, show that the kits show no cross-reactivity with near neighbor species and no false positives with commonly encountered "white powders". The kits will be optimally used to test suspicious powders in any of the numerous Olympics venues.
"The contract for the Bio-terrorism detection kits comes on the heels of our contract to provide radiation detection equipment for the Olympics," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "We are proud to have contributed to the safety of the Olympics games," he added.
The contract to supply UDTT's bioterrorism detection equipment for the 2008 Beijing Olympics has come from F&D International Corporation. For more information please visit our website at www.udetection.com or

The original order was for radiation detection kits, this one is for biological agent detection. This would be an additional order for new equipment. It concerns me that they don't reference the size of the orders but maybe they are of the camp that believes that size really doesn't matter. All in all this is more good news and an indication the their sales team in China is working.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Additional Contract to Provide Bioterrorism Training Equipment for the 2008 Beijing Olympics
LOS ANGELES-Wednesday, July 23, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UDTT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received an additional contract to provide bioterrorism training equipment for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The equipment is designed to mimic a real-time biological attack thus preparing first responders in the proper use and handling of bioterrorism detection equipment.
There have been recent reports of terrorist activity in China. The Chinese Government has warned that terrorists pose the biggest risk to this summer's Olympics Games in Beijing. Officials say they foiled two plots, one to bring down an airliner, and another to disrupt the summer games. The Chinese government has also stepped up efforts in bio-security to ward off possible bioterrorism during the coming Olympics.
UDTT's simulation/trainer equipment and threat simulation powders are designed to mimic a bio-threat event that illustrates all potential outcomes of the 5-agent test device. UDTT had previously received a contract to supply 5-agent test equipment for the Beijing Olympics. The 5-agent testing kit is designed to test for Anthrax, Ricin, Botulinum Toxin, Plague and SEB's in as little as 3 minutes.
"The contract for the bio-terrorism training equipment completes the series of contracts we received providing anti-terror equipment for the Beijing Olympics that included radiological and bio-weapon detection equipment," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer.

If you look at the size of the shares traded, they are all in large amounts. Anywhere from 500,000 - 1,000,000. With the volume at around 20,000,000 a day, that really isn't that many trades. The volume really needs to pick up to around 80,000,000 a day for this stock to start making head way. For whatever the reason, it just hasn't got the PR needed to make a run. This is a very sound company making huge advancements. They do have quite a bit of debt, but are getting some nice contracts. If they come through with the contracts and God forbid they actually detect an actual biohazard, look out! Just be patient (we are talking years), don't sell off when it hits .01/share. This will go 1.00/share and higher in the years to come.:wink:

Good points Dukhunter. In regard to debt I found it interesting and encouraging that a number of creditors have accepted shares of UDTT stock as payment for notes. They are not required to register the recipient of the stock under SEC rules but I have come across a few of these transactions in the past months. It would be interesting to know if the shares were sold on the open market or are being held. I have not found any requirement in the language regarding liquidation of the shares.

My first thought is that this should be a positive move. It's going to reduce the overall amount of shares you hold but will increase the per share value which will possibly attract more investor activity. I'm in for the ride so I guess time will tell. This all happens on Monday so we don't have long to wait.

The reason you didn't hear anything was because they only needed a 50% or more vote to pass it. The board of directors alone have more than 50% of the shares. This was a board only vote. I guess I see it different. I think the fact that people are going to see the (reverse split) will cause panic. I see this as bad news. :thumpdown:

Interesting recap on UNDT's progress here. I called Schwab yesterday and they said it can take a while for the symbol change to take effect in my potfolio so I assume it is the same for other brokers as well. The stock is trading under the symbol UNDT and is not showing on my screen yet which is a bit inconvenient. I am keeping the chart up to keep track of it but the gains don't seem to be reflected in my account yet. :( Hopefully this will be resolved soon.

Universal Detection Technology Releases Corporate Update from Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
LOS ANGELES-Tuesday, July 29, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UNDT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, today reported the following corporate update from the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Table of contents
Marketing of BSM-2000, UNDT's Anthrax Detector
Increasing Threat of Bio-Terrorism
The Threat of an Airborne Anthrax Attack and Current Defense Systems
Beijing Olympics
The Threat of Ricin and UNDT's Solution

Stock Split and Symbol Change
Dear Shareholder:
It is unfortunate that we are living under the threat of terrorism and biological warfare. What's of greatest concern is the lack of proper preparation at various levels for dealing with a potential attack with these deadly agents. Consequently, we have intensified our efforts to address the growing need to protect our families and businesses.
As a result of these efforts, I am pleased to report the progress we have made in the past year. In conjunction with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), we have successfully completed the development phase of our BSM-2000 bacterial and anthrax spore monitoring and detection device. We are now establishing our domestic and international marketing and sales programs. The purpose of this communication is to provide you with an update of our recent efforts as well as our vision of the road ahead and our future plans.
Marketing of BSM-2000, UNDT's Anthrax Detection System
We launched a prototype of our BSM-2000, Anthrax Detection System in 2004 and have now produced a commercially available device. We are committed to further research for acquisition of new technologies and for enhancing the performance of BSM-2000. In order to market the device to the US Federal Government, in the past we have engaged in direct marketing as well as marketing through intermediaries to Federal and State Governments. While we have not sold any units of BSM-2000 in the US, we are in talks with third parties to collaborate on ways to market, sell, and distribute this technology internationally.
Increasing Threat of Bioterrorism
The risk of a large-scale biological attack on the Nation is significant. It is well known that terrorists have sought to use chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear weapons as instruments of their warfare, and that the capability is within their reach. A recent Government analysis indicates that anthrax is a likely choice of pathogen; and a successful single-city attack on an unprepared population could kill hundreds of thousands of citizens. A coordinated attack on multiple targets would come much closer in magnitude to our enemy's goal.
The Threat of an Airborne Anthrax Attack and Our Defense System
The threat of an aerosolized anthrax attack is the nation's number one bioterrorism concern, and it is that threat which should be vigorously planned for and invested in. The ramifications of such an attack include tremendous loss of life, economic costs, damage to critical infrastructure, and unprecedented environmental contamination. UNDT's technology is perfectly suited to fill the technology gap that exists in the nation's biodetection infrastructure. Current technologies in use are either cost-prohibitive for mass-deployment or hampered with inaccuracies and High false positive rates. UNDT's technology has been reviewed by government agencies and the conclusion has been that the BSM-2000 can rapidly and accurately detect harmful spores in the air at a fraction of the cost of systems based on DNA analysis.
Beijing Olympics
UNDT received separate contracts to provide radiological and biological detection instruments for use for site protection at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The radiological detection equipment will be used for search and identification of gamma and neutron radioactive materials. The instruments feature the capability to identify the detected isotopes and characterize categories from medical, industrial, natural occurring radioactive materials (NORM) and special nuclear materials (SNM). UNDT's biological detection equipment are designed to detect Anthrax, Ricin, Botulinum Toxin, Plague and SEB's in as little as 3 Minutes. UNDT also received a contract to provide training equipment for the biological detection system. The Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (BOCOG) is responsible for all aspects of security for the Olympics. BOCOG plans to deploy 80,000 security personal for the Olympics.
The Threat of Ricin and UNDT's Solution
Ricin is one of the most toxic and easily produced plant toxins. It has been used in the past as a bioterrorist weapon and remains a serious threat as seen in the March 2008 incident in Las Vegas. If injected, as little as 500 micrograms of ricin could be enough to kill an adult; some animal research indicates that similar amounts could be lethal, if inhaled. UNDT's hand-held Ricin detection kit can detect ricin powder on a surface or in a liquid in as little as 3 minutes. The kits have been used by law enforced and private security firms throughout the country.
CBRN (Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear)
By partnering with industry leaders in the CBRN detection field, UNDT has increased the range of products available to its users and customers. These products include state of the art biological and radiological detection equipment. UNDT has generated sales from the marketing of these products.
Our Ongoing Dialogue with the US Department of Homeland Security
Through attending DHS sponsored conferences, and private meetings with DHS officials UNDT has increased the level of involvement with the DHS. Earlier this month, UNDT submitted an application for SAFETY Act Developmental Testing and Evaluation Designation (DT&E) with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Once granted the designation will afford both the company and its customers protection from any potential liabilities in the testing of its BSM-2000 System. UNDT is also in the process of submitting an Operational Requirements Document (ORD) to the DHS based on the department's recommendation. By submitting an ORD, a company becomes eligible to apply for a partnership with the Department of Homeland Security through the SECURE Program to develop products and/or services.
MRSA
In the past year we have also expanded our product base by offering products that can be used to eliminate Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA). The MRSA microbe, a strain of a once harmless staph bacterium that has become invulnerable to first-line antibiotics, is responsible for more than 94,000 serious infections and nearly 19,000 deaths each year. UNDT had received orders for its anti-MRSA products from hospitals, nursing homes, and private medical practitioners.
Stock Split and Symbol Change
Effective July 28, 2008, Universal Detection Technology undertook a 200:1 reverse stock split. As a result, there are now about 15 million shares of common stock of the Company outstanding. In conjunction with the split, the symbol on the OTCBB has changed to UNDT.OB.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Jacques Tizabi
Chairman and CEO

I'm going out on a limb here. If they come through with the contracts to the Olympics and are successful, I see 1.00/share by the fall. Won't that be nice! I was wrong what I initially stated about the panic. It obviously didn't happen. The PR from the chairman tells me that this company means business and the potential is definetly there. If they get a government contract, wwwwwhhhhhhooooooaaaaaaa nnnnnnneeeelllllyyyyyy!:dancing2:

Right now you have what I call "panic trading." Everyone sees these huge jumps and sells. It is going to beat the price down a bit. This stock should be trading at around .50/share right now. The company is worth every bit of that. Wait till after the olympics and see if any contracts come through with the government. IMO, you will not loose out of anything staying long.:D

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order for Anthrax Detection Equipment From the State of Hawaii Emergency Medical Services
Tuesday 08/12/2008 4:00 PM ET - Market Wire
Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTCBB: UNDT (https://research.scottrade.com/research/common/symbolRedirect.asp?symbol=UNDT)), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received a purchase order from the state of Hawaii Emergency Medical Services for its handheld bio-detection equipment. The purchase order is for handheld devices that test for Anthrax, Ricin Toxin, Botulinum Toxin, Y. Pestis (Plague), and Staphylococcal Entertoxin B (SEB (https://research.scottrade.com/research/common/symbolRedirect.asp?symbol=SEB)). The purchase order also includes simulation kits that mimic a real world "white powder" incident.
UNDT has supplied its biological test equipment to first responders throughout the country including the Washington, D.C. Fire and Emergency Medical Services and the City of Burbank Fire Department. This order, however, marks the Company's first order from a State Government.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order From NovaMed for Its Anti-Microbial Washing Machine Additive
Thursday August 21, 7:00 am ET
Additive Proven Effective Against the Re-Growth of MRSA on Treated Material
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 21, 2008 -- Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com) (OTC BB:UNDT.OB - News) (FRANKFURT: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received a purchase order for its anti-microbial washing machine additive from NovaMed. NovaMed plans to use the product to disinfect clothing and linen at its ambulatory surgery centers. UDT's Anti-microbial washing machine additive is effective in sterilizing fabrics and linen from harmful bacteria such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
MRSA is found worldwide, predominantly in hospitals and institutions such as nursing homes. Recently MRSA has also spread in the general community. There are three main reservoirs (and hence sources of spread and infection) for MRSA in hospital and institutions: staff, patients and inanimate objects such as beds, linen and utensils. Hospitals need to take precautions to prevent the spread of MRSA by sterilizing linen and clothing.
MRSA infections occur in approximately 94,000 persons each year and are associated with approximately 19,000 deaths. Of these infections, about 86% are healthcare-associated and 14% are community-associated.
"The purchase order from NovaMed comes as another milestone for our company as more companies and individuals discover the unique sterilization capabilities of our anti-microbial

Universal Detection Technology Comments on Reports of "White Powder" Scare at McCain's Denver Headquarters
The Company's 5-agent detector is capable of detecting Anthrax, Ricin, Botulinum Toxin, Plague and SEB's in One Test
LOS ANGELES-Friday, August 22, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UNDT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, commented today on the recent "white powder" scare at John McCain's Denver headquarters that led to the evacuation of the building. UNDT's 5-agent detector is capable of detecting Anthrax, Ricin, Botulinum Toxin, Y. Pestis (Plague) and SEB's in one test.
John McCain's headquarters in suburban Denver was evacuated on Thursday after a worker opened a threatening letter and discovered white powder inside. A McCain spokesman told the Associated Press that a similar letter was sent to a McCain office in Manchester, N.H. He did not know if it also contained a powder.
Linda Watson, a spokeswoman for Sky Ridge Medical Center in suburban Centennial, Co., said four workers from the office drove themselves to the hospital. She said they underwent decontamination procedures, but showed no signs or symptoms of exposure to a toxic substance. She said the substance in the letter was being analyzed and results should be available later.
UNDT's 5-agent Bio-terrorism detection kits have been extensively used by first responders and private industry throughout the country. Testing of the kits by the U.S. DOD as well as the United Kingdom military, show that the kits show no cross-reactivity with near neighbor species and no false positives with commonly encountered "white powders". The kits were recently purchased by officials at the Beijing Olympic for monitoring of the Olympic venues.
"In the time period leading to the two national conventions and the inauguration that are all scheduled in the next 5 months the number of incidents will likely be on the rise," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UDTT's Chief Executive Officer. "UNDT's 5-agent detectors can accurately detect the presence of the 5 top bio-terror threats in as little as 3 minutes." He added.

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order From theDepartment of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection
Oct 16, 2008 07:01:06 (ET)
LOS ANGELES, CA, Oct 16, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Universal Detection Technology ( www.udetection.com (http://www.udetection.com/) ) (UNDT (https://us.etrade.com/e/t/invest/quotesandresearch?qmenu=2&prod=UNDT:US:EQ), Trade (https://us.etrade.com/e/t/applogic/OrderForm?Symbol=UNDT) ) (FRANKFURT: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received a purchase order for its anthrax detection equipment from the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol. The detection equipment is designed to check for anthrax and can return results in as little as 3 minutes.
The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol is one of the Department of Homeland Security's largest and most complex components, with a priority mission of keeping terrorists and their weapons out of the U.S. It also has a responsibility for securing and facilitating trade and travel while enforcing hundreds of U.S. regulations, including immigration and drug laws.
A recent commission chaired by former senators Bob Graham and Jim Talent has found that the nation is "very exposed" in terms of preparedness to a bioterrorist attack. The next U.S. president should put more emphasis on countering biological threats as part of a rethinking of national security strategy, according to early assessments from the leaders of a commission. "Both biological and nuclear threats are significant in their ability to kill hundreds of thousands, but a biological attack is easier to launch and harder to combat because many biological weapon components are widely available and have benign uses," said the commission's chairman, former Sen. Bob Graham of Florida.
UNDT's anthrax detection equipment has been extensively used by first responders and private industry throughout the country. The equipment has been evaluated by the U.S. DOD as well as the United Kingdom military. The equipment's features include:
-- No cross-reactivity with near neighbor strains.-- No cross-reactivity to household powders.-- No set up time.-- No expensive reader needed.-- No decontamination requirements.-- No false positives.-- No false negatives. and-- No hook effect.
"The purchase order came on the heels of our presentation at the 3rd annual Gulf Coast Terrorism Conference where we had the opportunity to demonstrate our detection technologies to first responders, federal agents and representatives from the armed forces," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer.
UNDT has received the purchase orders referred to in this news release through Security Solutions International (SSI). The equipment were billed to the DHS by SSI as part of participation in the counterterrorism training at the Gulf Coast Terrorism Conference and are expected to be delivered to them directly from UDT within the next 30 days.

The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is made up of approximately 34,600 Civilian and 650 military members. The military and civilian engineers, scientists and other specialists work hand in hand as leaders in engineering and environmental matters. The diverse workforce of biologists, engineers, geologists, hydrologists, natural resource managers and other professionals meets the demands of changing times and requirements as a vital part of America's Army.
A recent commission chaired by former senators Bob Graham and Jim Talent has found that the nation is "very exposed" in terms of preparedness to a bioterrorist attack. The next U.S. president should put more emphasis on countering biological threats as part of a rethinking of national security strategy, according to early assessments from the leaders of a commission. "Both biological and nuclear threats are significant in their ability to kill hundreds of thousands, but a biological attack is easier to launch and harder to combat because many biological weapon components are widely available and have benign uses," said the commission's chairman, former Sen. Bob Graham of Florida.
UNDT's anthrax detection equipment has been extensively used by first responders and private industry throughout the country. The equipment has been evaluated by the U.S. DOD as well as the United Kingdom military. The equipment's features are:
-- No cross-reactivity with near neighbor strains.-- No cross-reactivity to household powders.-- No set up time.-- No expensive reader needed.-- No decontamination requirements.-- No false positives.-- No false negatives. and-- No hook effect
"The USACE is responsible for designing and managing the construction of military facilities for the Army and Air Force and we hope that our detection equipment can become an integral part of their efforts for base protection," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer.
UNDT has received the purchase orders referred to in this news release through Security Solutions International (SSI). The equipment was billed to the USACE by SSI as part of participation in the counterterrorism training at the Gulf Coast Terrorism Conference and is expected to be delivered to them directly from UDT within the next 30 days.

I kind of surprised by the drop today. Great news all week up to Friday. I also don't believe the quarter results will be that great. 4th quarter should be huge. I might by some more shares if the 3rd quarter results are low. I firmly believe that this company is going to be huge. They have caught the attention of the feds. and the future is very bright. I'm thinking of selling some of my other stocks to buy some more into this one.

Universal Detection Technology Offers Early Point and Standoff Anthrax Detection
LOS ANGELES-Tuesday, October 21, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001j7ApKPxxtQhV8qgiGRlStW-UOH6jPwJI25-syPKhzsjtQzr3OILp8Gn57-OoCpq82VVDyo_B3zaf9VuLJ210g6YunfjHtzzt941mHxze9vUq zqkUHBtucQ==) OTCBB: UNDT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, responds to the effectiveness of anthrax emergency in the US until 2015.
Bioterror experts warn that an attack is only going to become easier to launch as the work that has spawned countless new biotech medical treatments continues to advance. "Unfortunately, there's going to be a dark side," says Randall Larsen, Director of the Institute for Homeland Security, a Virginia-based think tank. The biotech revolution, he said, is making it "easier for non-state actors to develop sophisticated bioweapons."
Yesterday at least five branches of Chase Bank in Colorado and Oklahoma received threatening letters, some containing an unidentified white powder. Fire Marshal Kevin Ferry of the Cunningham Fire Protection District near Denver said the powder in one package was found to be harmless, though the substance had yet to be identified. A police department spokesman in nearby Lakewood, Steve Davis, said a white substance found on a parcel there appeared not to be dangerous and resembled talcum powder.
"The biggest bioterrorism threat facing the world is an attack with anthrax spores. Anthrax is the only agent used against the US and the most likely one to be used in potential future attacks due to the simplicity to produce. Casualties caused by and attack with 2 pounds of weapons grade anthrax can be in the hundreds of thousands. The Government is well aware of this threat and the anthrax emergency is an evidence of the need to be vigilant and ready to contain a potential threat before disaster," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer.
It is noteworthy that the anthrax emergency is not declared due to an immediate concern and an imminent attack but that authorities are aware that there could be an emergency in the future for which the nation has to be ready.
UDTT's handheld assays are capable of detecting up to five bioterrorism agents in a suspicious sample. The company recently announced that it has received purchase orders for these assays from the DHS and the Federal Aviation Administration. UNDT's autonomous anthrax detection system, the BSM-2000, is designed by NASA's JPL to independently monitor the air and sound an alarm if abnormal levels of bacterial spores such as anthrax are sensed. The Government of England has purchased UNDT's BSM-2000 in the past.
There has been no cases of human anthrax reported this year in the US, but the DHS imposes blanket anthrax emergency for the next seven years. The emergency was declared earlier this month by the department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and will last until 2015.

Universal Detection Technology to Commence the Marketing of Its RicinDetection Equipment to the Agriculture Industry
Oct 22, 2008 07:01:03 (ET)
LOS ANGELES, CA, Oct 22, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Universal Detection Technology ( www.udetection.com (http://www.udetection.com/) ) (UNDT (https://us.etrade.com/e/t/invest/quotesandresearch?qmenu=2&prod=UNDT:US:EQ), Trade (https://us.etrade.com/e/t/applogic/OrderForm?Symbol=UNDT) ) (FRANKFURT: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it will begin marketing its Ricin detection equipment to the agriculture industry. The equipment can be used to test the safety of waste products left over from biodiesel production, in particular biodiesel synthesized from Castor Oil.
Castor Oil is the best substance for producing biodiesel because it is the only one that is soluble in alcohol, and does not require heat and the consequent energy requirement of other vegetable oils in transforming them into fuel. Biodiesel, chemically known as an esther, is the result of the reaction between any oily acid with ethyl (ethanol) or methyl (methanol) alcohol. In Europe and the United States, nearly two billion liters of biodiesel are consumed annually.
European and U.S. farmers have created national and international associations to promote this alternative fuel, which reduces urban air pollution and emissions of greenhouse gases associated with the burning of fossil fuels.
Ricin is a toxin that can be made from the waste left over from processing castor beans. It is one of the most toxic and easily produced plant toxins. If injected, as little as 500 micrograms of Ricin could be enough to kill an adult; some animal research indicates that similar amounts could be lethal, if inhaled. UNDT's Ricin detection equipment has been designed to detect trace amounts of Ricin in as little as 3 minutes.
"The marketing of our Ricin detection equipment to the agriculture industry marks another cross-over opportunity for our detection equipment," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer. "We plan to aggressively market the product to both the domestic and international biodiesel industry," he added.

I would be very hesitant to sell at third quarter results (considering there as good as we hope them to be) because the current contracts will not show up until 4th quarter. Although I will be tempted to sell, I'm going to hold out until next year. I still believe you will see 1.00 a share by early spring. I'm depositing more money now to buy more shares.:top:

I think this company is starting to work for it's common stock holders. They've gone from not putting out any press to almost putting it out on a daily basis. They also started a program last month for it's employees to be able to receive stock bonuses. That is a major step in the right direction. One thing that people have been upset with in the past is their earnings. If they start to show earnings on paper this thing will take off. If they continue to play the game of not showing any, the stock will continue to be worthles. Time will tell.

I will agree, what turned alot of people off was when the 2nd quarter quotes came out and showed alot of red...but I did not see much sales in the 2nd quarter.

[October 24, 2008]Wall Street News Alert: Hot Stock to Watch for Friday Morning: UNDT October 24, 2008
(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
RDATE:24102008
Weston, FLA -- Wall Street News Alert's "stocks to watch" this
morning are: Universal Detection Technology (OTCBB: UNDT), VIASPACE Inc
(OTCBB: VSPC), EMC (NYSE: EMC), and Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT).
Universal Detection Technology (OTCBB: UNDT) continues its string of
important press releases, and investors should be monitoring the
company's progress! Yesterday after the markets closed, the company, a
developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people
from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of
counter-terrorism consulting and training services, issued a press
release announcing that it has received a purchase order from the
United States Department of Agriculture for its Ricin detection
equipment.
Great news for the company, as the press release states that the USDA
plans to use the equipment to test waste seed mill from the production
of biodiesel fuels for the presence of Ricin. The USDA provides
leadership on food, agriculture, natural resources, rural development
and related issues based on sound public policy, the best available
science, and efficient management. Its responsibilities include
enhancing agricultural trade, improving farm economies and quality of
life in rural America, protecting the nation's food supply, improve the
nation's nutrition, and protecting and enhancing the nation's natural
resource base and environment. According to the release, the USDA's
expenditures are estimated at $95 billion in FY 2009.
Castor oil is the best substance for producing biodiesel because it is
the only one that is soluble in alcohol, and does not require heat and
the consequent energy requirement of other vegetable oils in
transforming them into fuel. Biodiesel, chemically known as an esther,
is the result of the reaction between any oily acid with ethyl
(ethanol) or methyl (methanol) alcohol. In Europe and the United
States, nearly two billion liters of biodiesel are consumed annually.
Ricin is a toxin that can be made from the waste left over from
processing castor beans. It is one of the most toxic and easily
produced plant toxins. If injected, as little as 500 micrograms of
ricin could be enough to kill an adult; some animal research indicates
that similar amounts could be lethal, if inhaled. UNDT's Ricin
detection equipment has been designed to detect trace amounts of Ricin
in as little as 3 minutes.
"We are proud to announce the purchase order received from the USDA as
we strive to make our products and technology available to all sectors
of industry," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer."
Investors are urged to continue to monitor the progress of the company!
The stock closed Yesterday at Two cents a share.

Actually, I work 2nd shift. I really don't plan on selling either until 4th quarter results. I believe we will see I small spike in the next couple of weeks and back down again to .03. 4th quarter results is the ticket!:biggrin:

Universal Detection Technology Receives Purchase Order for its 5-agent Bioterrorism Detection Equipment from the City of Conway, Arkansas Fire DepartmentPurchase Order Comes After Recent Spate of Suspicious Powder Mailings to Major Banks
LOS ANGELES-Wednesday, October 29, 2008-Universal Detection Technology (www.udetection.com - OTCBB: UNDT - News - Frankfurt: PO8), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has received a purchase order for its 5-agent bioterrorism detection equipment from the City of Conway, Arkansas Fire Department. The detection equipment is designed to check for anthrax, botulinum, ricin, Y. Pestis (plague), and SEB's in one test.
In the last week more than 30 letters containing a suspicious powder were mailed to Chase bank branches and federal banking regulators' offices in nine cities. According to a law enforcement official, the letters were mailed to Chase bank branches in or near Atlanta, Chicago, Columbus, Ohio, Dallas, Denver, Newark, N.J., New York City, Oklahoma City and Washington.
The FBI also released a report that it had investigated over 900 threats made with envelopes containing white powder probably meant to look like anthrax. "Interesting enough, over the past two-years, the FBI has responded to over 900 of these threat letters," said FBI spokesman Rich Kolko. The FBI has appealed to the public for help with finding the perpetrator who has been sending banks, financial institutions and federal agencies threat letters and powder-stuffed envelopes.
UNDT's 5-agent Bio-terrorism detection equipment has been extensively used by first responders and private industry throughout the country. The equipment has been evaluated by the U.S. DOD as well as the United Kingdom military. The equipments capacities include:
· No cross-reactivity with near neighbor strains.
· No cross-reactivity to household powders.
· No set up time.
· No expensive reader needed.
· No decontamination requirements.
· No false positives.
· No false negatives. and
· No hook effect
"The recent white powder mailings are very alarming as each incident needs to be treated as an actual attack," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer. "Our detection equipment can identify 5 of the most lethal bio-agents in as little as 3 minutes," he added.

Am I seeing correctly that this stock was at around $200/share about 5 years ago? I didn't look at the stock until about 6 months ago. Anyone have the history on this.
4th quarter earnings should be stellar. I really have a lot of faith in this thing hitting. :top:

according to otcbb.com, the stock was at $200 in 04, but I am thinking this is when the stock either split or just opened to the public...

I pretty sure it was first opened to the public. It generally will take a nose dive after opening because initial investors sell to make their profit.
