InoLife Technologies, Inc. to Market a Plavix Metabolizing Test to
the Medical Industry



RALEIGH, NC -- (MARKETWIRE) -- 09/01/10 --

InoLife Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: INOL), a service based healthcare products
development, integration and marketing Company, announced today it will provide
and market a proprietary metabolizing test to physicians and practitioners to
identify how a patient's genetic makeup may affect the body's response to
Plavix (colpidogrel). The test will only be made available to physicians.

The Food and Drug Administration recently announced that Plavix must now
carry a so-called "black box" warning label after a landmark study revealed
that patients who were "non-responders" as a result of a genetic variation were
"3.58 times more likely to have a fatal stroke or myocardial infarction."

Plavix, an $8-billion-a-year drug and considered to be the second best
selling drug in the world, reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and
cardiovascular death in patients with cardiovascular disease by making
platelets less likely to form blood clots. Plavix does not have its
anti-platelet effects until it is metabolized into its active form by the liver
enzyme, CYP2C19.

"We determined that there are three critical problems that can lead to a
level of non-response to Plavix," said Dr. Frederic J. Vagnini, M.D., FACS, a
board certified cardiovascular surgeon who, after more than 20 years of
performing heart surgery, has turned his clinical practice to the prevention of
heart and related diseases. "First, in anyone an abnormality may be present
within a gene abbreviated as CYP2C19 (and other variants) which significantly
increases the risk of stroke or death due to clotting failure. Second, there
are different variants or mutations between ethnic groups; some studies have
indicated that one in three Caucasians and 40% of Asian of African-American
populations have this abnormality.

"Among clinicians there have been discussions centering on differing dosing
approaches. Perhaps the most important result of InoLife's DNA test is that
each patient will be able to have an individually tailored course of treatment
since some require longer periods on it," Vagnini stated.

InoLife Technologies feels that this is an important test for those who take
Plavix or who may need to take Plavix in the future. The Company is very
pleased that by addressing the black box warning, those who can be helped by
this medication will be.

InoLife's Plavix Metabolizing Test is only available to physicians and
medical professionals. It is not available for home use. Please ask your
physician.
