Ervin President and CEO stated, "We are honored to have such high esteemed individuals join our Board of Directors to assist us in developing an exciting and viable business venture." Dr. Rupert A.L.

Las Vegas resident Dr. Rupert A.L. Perrin was born in Havana, Cuba, in 1928, moving with his family to Jamaica in 1934. He was the youngest person ever to graduate from Saint Peters High School at the age of 15. In 1945, Dr. Perrin passed with honors the Cambridge University Senior School Examination and was awarded the West Indies Scholarship to study at Oxford University in England, graduating 3 years later with high honors in Organic and Physical Chemistry.
Dr. Perrin returned to Jamaica where he supervised a series of research projects sponsored by the British Commonwealth Funds. Two years later, Dr. Perrin joined the University of Southern California as a Senior Research specialist in the Medical School in Endocrinology and Immunology.
In 1969, Dr. Perrin founded his own Endocrine Laboratory in Carson, California, where one of the primary objectives was to extract growth hormones from pituitary glands to assist children with growth deficiency. Growth hormones are now being promoted as anti-aging treatments, as also by giving greater strength to athletes thereby enhancing their ability to compete.
Dr. Perrin developed the first Early Pregnancy test, which was the main source of antigen and antibodies used by other institutions in the utilization of this test around the world. The first PSA test to detect the presence of prostrate cancer was developed by Dr. Perrin. One of the major accomplishments of Dr. Perrin's career was the identification and utilization of Neopterin, which plays a major role in the organization and function of the immune system. A review of the role of Neopterin gives a clear insight into the clinical applications and the tremendous importance of the test with a broad spectrum of clinical applications making Neopterin a unique screening tool as a diagnostic and prognostic indication. Neopterin is widely used in blood bank centers to screen tainted or infected blood tainted with the presence of HIV-1 Virus and AIDS, and organ transplant screening.
