Wundert mich, dass ich zu dieser Kursrakete hier noch nichts gefunden habe. VeriChip Corporation ist ein Anbieter von RFID-Chips mit besonderem Know-How auf dem medizinischen Sektor.
In den letzten Tagen gab es zwei äusserst interessant Pressemeldungen:

VeriChip Corporation and RECEPTORS LLC to Unveil Development Details of Virus Triage Detection System for the H1N1 Virus and In Vivo Glucose-Sensing RFID Microchip at Grand Hyatt in New York on October 22





DELRAY BEACH, FL, and CHASKA, MN – October 15, 2009 – VeriChip Corporation (“VeriChip”) (NASDAQ: CHIP) and its development partner RECEPTORS LLC ("RECEPTORS"), a technology company whose AFFINITY by DESIGN™ chemistry platform can be applied to the development of selective binding products, announced today they will host an event for the medical, patient and investor communities on October 22, 2009, in New York to unveil details of their virus triage detection system for the H1N1 virus and Phase II development of an in vivo glucose-sensing RFID microchip. The companies will also provide a product demonstration of the virus triage detection system currently being developed.

The event will take place at the Grand Hyatt at 4:30 p.m. ET and feature a presentation by Robert E. Carlson, Ph.D., President and Chief Science Officer of RECEPTORS LLC, and an expert in the field of proteomics and the development of artificial receptors. Parties interested in attending the New York event should contact Allison Tomek at [phone] or at [e-mail] as soon as possible. Space is limited and registration will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.

The virus triage detection system is intended to initially provide two levels of identification within minutes. Once developed, utilizing a simple test tube or strip device format that can be combined with an inexpensive reader, it is expected that the first level will prep the sample and identify the agent as a flu or non-flu virus, and the second level will sub-type (e.g. H1N1) classify the flu virus and alert the user to the presence of pandemic threat viruses. Additionally, VeriChip believes the influenza triage diagnostic system will be scalable and will be able to be rapidly adapted to identify new strains of influenza and other viruses as they evolve, giving the virus triage detection system value for future testing applications in healthcare.

VeriChip previously announced in November 2008 that RECEPTORS completed Phase I of the project, which demonstrated the proof-of-concept foundation of the glucose-sensing system. The companies expect Phase II will demonstrate a glucose concentration response in the presence of blood and interstitial fluid matrix components. The companies published a white paper entitled, "Development of an Implantable Glucose Sensor," which outlines the product’s development and is available at www.verichipcorp.com.

VeriChip Corporation Enters Into Strategic Partnership with Diabetes Research Institute





DELRAY BEACH, FL and MIAMI, FL – October 21, 2009 – VeriChip Corporation ("VeriChip") (NASDAQ: CHIP) announced today that it has entered into a strategic partnership with the Diabetes Research Institute ("DRI") to combine efforts on the further development of the glucose-sensing radio frequency identification (RFID) microchip in conjunction with VeriChip's development partner, RECEPTORS LLC. VeriChip and DRI also intend to create a prospective, randomized, comparative clinical study that will seek to address the lack of appropriate, concise, and up-to-date patient health information available to both practitioners caring for diabetic patients and the patients themselves through the utilization of VeriChip's interoperable personal health record, Health Link, and an electronic medical record system.

Robert Pearlman, President and CEO of the DRI Foundation, said, "We are pleased to partner with VeriChip on this important initiative to develop a glucose-sensing RFID microchip, which could potentially improve patient care and compliance among individuals with diabetes. Furthermore, we believe access to a personal health record is vital for all patients, but particularly those with chronic illnesses. Our relationship with VeriChip will enable us to provide that access to our patients and study the utility of Health Link and the role it plays within a larger electronic medical record system."

The DRI is a recognized world leader in cure-focused research. The most comprehensive diabetes research facility of its kind, the DRI is credited with changing the international research paradigm, ensuring that promising findings in the lab can be translated to patients in the fastest, safest and most efficient way possible. Through this translational process, the DRI bridges programs in the rapidly evolving fields of pancreatic stem cell development, tissue engineering, transplant immunology, cell transdifferentiation, molecular biology and regenerative medicine, among others, to approach the cure with a true multidisciplinary strategy.
