CDEX to Demonstrate Validation of Flu Vaccine and Flu Medications at The American Society of Health Systems Pharmacists (ASHP) MidYear Clinical Meeting December 4-8
Rockville, MD – November 14, 2005 – CDEX Inc. (OTCBB: CEXI), developer of the ValiMed™ Medication Validation System and other innovative substance detection and verification systems, announces its participation in the 40th MidYear Clinical Meeting of the American Society of Health Systems Pharmacists (ASHP) December 4-8, 2005 in Las Vegas. At ASHP, CDEX will be demonstrating its ValiMed Medication Validation System, and demonstrating how CDEX technology can be utilized to validate authentic influenza vaccine and Tamiflu medication.

CDEX will be located at ASHP Booth 1021 to demonstrate ValiMed’s validation capabilities. Jim Griffin, COO, and Jerry Blair, VP of Business Operations, will be available for interviews.
