LOS ANGELES, June 9, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- BiomedDiscoveries.com, http://www.BiomedDiscoveries.com, the online source for exclusive investor information in the biotechnology sector, has announced the availability of a commentary by respected market analyst Dr. John Faessel focusing on recent milestones and achievements by Xenomics Inc. (OTCBB:XNOM), a developer of next-generation medical DNA technologies.
Dr. Faessel's report provides a summary of some of the recent news from Xenomics regarding the Company's development of medical diagnostic tests based on its proprietary Transrenal-DNA (Tr-DNA) technology. Among Xenomics initiatives referred to in the report are the Company's recently announced clinical studies with two leading medical research institutions to study new prenatal tests for genetic abnormalities. The report also discusses Xenomics progress in development of medical diagnostic tests for HIV and tuberculosis.
Tr-DNA are fragments of genetic material that traverse the kidneys and are eventually eliminated in the urine. Xenomics' scientists were the first to report the discovery of these Tr-DNA fragments in urine samples, enabling creation of a powerful new technology platform. The Company is now developing a family of next-generation medical diagnostic tests based on its Tr-DNA technology that can be conducted on simple urine samples in a wide range of biomedical applications, including prenatal tests for fetal genetic abnormalities, and for infectious diseases such as HIV and TB.
