BioForce Nanosciences Announces Confirmation of Its Nanoarray Patent

Article body

AMES, Iowa, Oct. 15, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- BioForce Nanosciences, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of BioForce Nanosciences Holdings, Inc. (OTC BB: BFNH.OB), today announced that it has received notice from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) that its ``Protein Nanoarray'' patent (US Pat. No. 6,573,369) has been upheld following a request for re-examination of the previously issued patent by a third party.

BioForce currently commercializes ultramicro arrays that are created using its Nano eNabler(tm) system. These miniaturized diagnostic and discovery tests have features sizes in the one micrometer to twenty micrometer diameter range (a human hair is about 70 micrometers in diameter). The Protein Nanoarray patent covers arrays of proteins having feature sizes of less than one micron squared and containing one or more different protein species. This size scale represents the ultimate level of miniaturization for biological diagnostic and discovery tests.

``This patent has now undergone extraordinary analysis by the USPTO'' explained Dr. Eric Henderson, BioForce's founder, CEO and co-inventor of the patent. ``Our success in this reexamination gives us confidence that as we make progress toward commercial development of miniaturized diagnostic tests we will have the appropriate intellectual property protection. We have created prototype Protein Nanoarrays as described in this patent and are positioned to begin to commercialize them when the market is ready.''

Curtis Mosher, BioForce's Vice President of R&D and co-inventor of the patent, stated, ``We continue to make improvements in our Nano eNabler (tm) system that allow it to create extremely miniaturized diagnostics tests. With tests this small a single drop of blood, a tear, or a few cells from a cheek swab can be used for multiple diagnoses with minimal patient impact. This is a fundamental requirement for our long term business goal of patient empowerment and truly personalized medicine.''

About BioForce Nanosciences Holdings, Inc.

BioForce Nanosciences develops and commercializes nanotech tools and solutions for the life sciences. BioForce's flagship product, the Nano eNabler(tm) molecular printer, gives the Company a platform for development and discovery. BioForce technology is being used in sensor functionalization; patterning and cell adhesion; and printing proteins to guide neural cell growth.

CCM understands that markets, as a whole, are cyclical in nature. Regardless of the direction of the broad market, short, mid, and longer-term opportunities exist within individual market sectors.

CCM enhances SectorOptics by deconstructing and filtering the markets, in order to identify sectors experiencing a higher frequency of opportunities. As a result, CCM is constantly in the process of unlocking value for investors and corporations engaged in sectors where CCM maintains coverage.

Due, in part, to the speed at which information travels today, capital markets are experiencing an ever-increasing rate of expansion. As the world continues to spin faster, and grow smaller, CCM will continue to provide clarity by bridging markets with investors.

CCM maintains coverage of the following sectors:

-Alternative Energy
-Biometrics
-Homeland Security
-Metals
-Nanotechnology
-Oil & Gas
-RFID

J Giordano Securities Group (JGIO) is a research boutique focused on emerging technologies to institutional investors. The firm is focused on companies with relatively small market capitalizations of less than $1 billion. The research addresses the lack of quality research effort from Wall Street firms on small capitalization stocks since most do not generate significant investment banking fees.
The stock selection process begins with a top-down analysis. We review the merits of the emerging technology and dissect its commercial niches. Within each niche, we pinpoint the market leader with the strongest intellectual property portfolio, management team and commercial partnerships.

After the industry analysis, the analyst conducts his own independent due diligence on the company by visiting competitors, attending industry conferences, communicating with suppliers, contacting customers and scrutinizing all SEC filings.

The analyst completes a valuation analysis and comparison to estimate the target price while considering the investment risks. Our research is printed and E-mailed to customers on a timely basis and the analyst is always available to discuss developments and news. Updates are disseminated quickly to take advantage of price movements. There is a commitment to provide a superior level of service to clients.

Lux Capital is a research-driven investment firm focused on building businesses of lasting value. Lux uncovers and creates market-leading companies by leveraging our vast network, proprietary business intelligence and unique access. Luxs investment strategy ensures our portfolio companies are better connected, have deeper insight, and command industry leadership faster than their competitors.

Lux Capital is credited with introducing the first investment framework for nanotechnology. Historically, great investment franchises were built during a particular era and around waves of opportunity. In 2000, while nearly all venture investors focused upon Internet, enterprise hardware and software, optical networking and other IT and communication investments, Lux held a contrarian conviction. We saw opportunity in the neglected fields of material science and mesoscale physics and in their intersection with other scientific disciplines (later referred to as nanotechnology). Twelve months of original research, interviews, and site visits to leading universities revealed nanotechnology was a nascent field substantiated by a growing pace of scientific breakthroughs and government funding. Early research also gave Lux the opportunity to become the leader in nanotechnology, which was still off the radar of top-tier investors, the media, and the public.

Lux spent two years executing on a plan to cultivate key academic and industry relationships, build credibility, and become an industry leader at the epicenter of all activity within nanotechnology. We launched strategic portfolio companies in market research/business intelligence (Lux Research), media (Joint Venture with Forbes Magazine) and public policy (NanoBusiness Alliance). These entities provide us with multiple edges over other venture capital funds for sourcing deals, adding value to the entrepreneurs and portfolio companies we invest in, and exiting investments.

Our team has a successful track record of building, investing in, and adding highly strategic value to leading emerging technology companies started at over 40 leading academic centers and government labs including MIT, Harvard, Cornell, University of Texas, UCLA, UC Berkeley, Columbia, Lawrence Livermore National Labs and Washington University.
