Company President Dennis Fisher stated, "With the world's eyes now focusing on alternative 'Green' fuels, BioCentric can play a major awareness role by attending such events worldwide. ALGAE is now in the forefront as a major source for alternative fuels and Biomass related products. I believe the guest list of attendees predicted to be at this event includes several senior representatives of major Oil companies. As a result of such potential awareness, BioCentric's opportunity to present its patent pending closed loop photobioreactor system for the rapid reproduction of ALGAE could receive many opportunities for advancement and new system orders."
Mr. Fisher confirmed that, along with an associate company based in Southern California, both companies along with BioCentric's Czech Republic based scientific research team are in the process of completing their due diligence work on the "Lipid Trigger" technology which, if successful, would significantly enhance the natural growth and production of ALGAE in their closed loop photobioreactor system. The companies expect to have completed test results and announcements by the end of the month.
