The first lot of blood clotting reagents is being readied for shipment under a strategic alliance formed in August of 2001 between BioMedica and Novitron International Inc. (NASDAQ: NOVI) of Newton, MA, for the technology transfer of a blood clotting detection analyzer and related reagents being developed by BioMedica. The instrument and accessories are to be manufactured by Novitron International's Dutch subsidiary, Vital Scientific; the reagents by BioMedica Diagnostics, and the product jointly distributed by the two companies. The instrument and reagents are designed for use in the doctor's office, clinics, for near patient testing, and for use in developing countries.
