Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Luminar Media Group, Inc., (Luminar, OTCMKTS: LRGR) and The Jenex Corporation (Jenex, NEX: JEN.H) report the completion of a working prototype for the patent pending TherOZap™ device. An Agreement has been signed with the University Health Network to test Therozap™ against the Zika and West Nile viruses.

Chris Cook, CEO and Chairman of Luminar Media Group, Inc., (Luminar, OTCMKTS: LRGR), and global licensee for TherOZap™ outside of Canada comments: “The availability of a working prototype brings us one step closer to releasing this product to market. Expanding the device's effectiveness to the Zika and West Nile virus will provide tremendous benefit for many regions of the world.” Images of the Therozap™ prototype can be viewed at www.therozap.com .

Jenex has optimized the features on the TherO Zap ™ working prototype device as protection against both the Zika virus and West Nile virus and potentially other mosquito borne diseases. Jenex has signed an agreement with University Health Network (“UHN”) to initiate testing of the TherO Zap ™ device against these viruses. Over the next several weeks Jenex will be coordinating with the Techna Institute at UHN to devise the protocols for the initial tests. It is anticipated that once all testing is complete, Jenex will commercialize TherOZap™, pending regulatory approval where required.

Rob Fia, CEO commented, “We are very excited with the TherO Zap ™ working prototype. Jenex looks forward to working with UHN to begin the initial testing to determine the effectiveness of the device at inactivating both the Zika and West Nile viruses."
