Quick-Med Technology, Inc. Receives Notice-of-Allowance for New NIMBUS Patent

New Poly-Electrolyte Complex (PEC) Patent Will Protect NIMBUS Antimicrobial Product Applications

GAINESVILLE, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 08/23/13 -- Quick-Med Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: QMDT), a life sciences company that is developing innovative technologies for the healthcare and consumer markets, announced today that it has received a Notice-of-Allowance for an additional new U.S. patent that will protect its novel, non-leaching NIMBUS® antimicrobial technology.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has allowed all 41 claims in Quick-Med Technologies' U.S. Patent Application No. 12/830,062 titled, "POLYELECTROLYTE COMPLEX FOR IMPARTING ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES TO A SUBSTRATE." This new patent will provide protection for an improved method of preparing the company's NIMBUS antimicrobial products. The method utilizes a Poly-Electrolyte Complex, or PEC in which a negatively-charged (anionic) polymer is used to stabilize the active antimicrobial agent -- a positively-charged (cationic) polymer. This complex allows the NIMBUS polymer to be bonded to a wider variety of substrates, opening the door for new applications and products.

"The PEC method is an important improvement in the way we manufacture our NIMBUS materials," said Dr. William Toreki, one of the inventors of the method, and Quick-Med's Vice-President of Research & Development. "The PEC makes the antimicrobial component more adherent on a molecular level, and that makes it easier to attach it to the surfaces of bandages and wound dressings." The PEC method is currently in-use in commercial products such as the BIOGUARD® series of wound dressings sold by Derma Sciences, under license from Quick-Med. Quick-Med expects this new patent to issue in approximately 6 to 8 weeks from today, and it will remain in force until the year 2030.

About NIMBUS
Quick-Med's patented technology, NIMBUS, is a cutting-edge antimicrobial technology that has been custom designed for wound care and other medical applications. NIMBUS received De Novo FDA clearance in 2009 and has been commercialized in traditional wound care applications. It is the only non-leaching antimicrobial dressing which, by design, poses no risk of bacteria developing resistance. NIMBUS technology is protected by twelve U.S. patents and patents pending and 24 foreign counterparts. Additional applications under development include advanced wound dressings, medical adhesives, catheters, and contact lenses.

While NIMBUS antimicrobials remain at full strength, the active agent in most other antimicrobial technologies is depleted gradually while in use. These other antimicrobials carry the risk of irritation or interference with healing in products such as wound dressings and textile applications in which the treated material is next to or used on the skin. The bonding of an antimicrobial to a substrate is a paradigm shift from the current state-of-the-art which fosters release of the active agent. The value of a non-leaching antimicrobial is that it does not allow depletion of the active agent which can lead to damage to human skin or tissue cells such that they can cause irritation, delay healing and possibly initiate the development of bacterial resistance.

Quick-Med Technologies Awarded NSF Grant to Develop Antimicrobial Coatings That Can Be Regenerated With Hydrogen Peroxide

Stay Fresh(R) Technology Competitively Selected by National Science Foundation for Development of Antimicrobial Surface Treatments

GAINESVILLE, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 05/30/13 -- Quick-Med Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: QMDT), a life sciences company that is developing innovative technologies for the healthcare and consumer markets, announced today that it has been awarded grant IIP-1315379 by the National Science Foundation (NSF), titled: "Regenerable Antimicrobial Coatings Containing Zinc Oxide Binders for Hydrogen Peroxide Cleaning Solutions." Quick-Med's Stay Fresh® technology was competitively selected for this award under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program of NSF. The SBIR program, established by the U.S. Congress, supports scientific excellence and technological innovation through the investment of federal research funds by competitively awarding contracts and grants on the basis of scientific merit, commercial potential, and potential for societal impact by the supported research.

The Phase I objective of this research is to develop Regenerable Antimicrobial Coatings with long-lasting efficacy for use in medical instruments, devices, and hospital equipment and facilities. The same coatings will also have broad utility in the consumer, industrial, and institutional markets.

The coating technology is an extension of the highly effective Stay Fresh technology, sequestering Hydrogen Peroxide (HP) in zinc oxide particles incorporated into the coatings. Exposure of coated surfaces to commercially-available HP-containing cleaning products will cause binding of HP to the zinc oxide particles -- allowing HP to be sequestered within the coating after the surface has dried. This technology is designed to provide durable and long-lasting antimicrobial effect sufficient to reduce or eliminate the proliferation and spread of pathogenic organisms in between cleaning cycles. Additionally, the antimicrobial effect should be regenerated each time the surface is cleaned with peroxide-containing cleaning products.

The Phase I research grant is valued at about $150,000, and the performance period is from July 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013. The Phase 1 award also qualifies Quick-Med to apply for Phase 2, which can bring the total value close to $1M, and will develop the proof of concept to commercial readiness. "We are very pleased to have been competitively selected for this important advanced research program to develop antimicrobial coatings," said Bernd Liesenfeld, Quick-Med's President. "This award is a great validation of our Stay Fresh antimicrobial technology platform and will enable us to continue our development of products that help prevent microbial contamination, and pathogen transfer, particularly as focused on healthcare settings. We believe that this technology can be particularly helpful to aid infection control strategies in institutions housing vulnerable populations."

FDA Clears Stay-Fresh(R) Medical Textile Product

Quick-Med Receives 510k Clearance to Market Antibacterial Skinfold Management Device -- First Medical Product Utilizing Stay Fresh Technology

GAINESVILLE, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 05/29/13 -- Quick-Med Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: QMDT), a life sciences company that is developing innovative technologies for the healthcare and consumer markets, announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued clearance for distribution and marketing of a Stay Fresh® medical textile product. FDA granted 510k clearance for the Stay Fresh® antibacterial skinfold management textile, which provides durable protection against bacterial contamination for skinfold management in bariatric patients.

"We are very pleased to have received this clearance for both prescription (Rx) and Over-The-Counter (OTC) use," said Bernd Liesenfeld, Quick-Med's President. "This clearance represents a very powerful validation of our Stay Fresh technology, since the FDA review process is extremely meticulous and comprehensive; 510k clearance requires strong evidence of both effectiveness and of safety for users and care providers. Together with the existing EPA registration for Stay Fresh this provides strong regulatory support for our products already in development with partners, and for further products in our pipeline, both on the consumer and on the medical sides."

"Areas of skin-to-skin contact such as under breast folds or abdominal skin folds frequently develop redness, odor, and rashes due to increased moisture and friction that create an environment that promotes bacterial growth in the skin folds," said Professor Gregory Schultz, Director of the Institute for Wound Research and Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Florida. "The Stay Fresh® antibacterial textile approved by the FDA provides an effective skin fold management system that will help manage moisture and bacterial pathogen growth for up to 5 days."

Quick-Med Announces First Commercial Sale of Advanced Dressings With NIMBUS(R) Technology

Viridis BioPharma Launches Microfoam(TM) Advanced Wound Care Dressings in India

GAINESVILLE, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 01/08/13 -- Quick-Med Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: QMDT), a life sciences company that is developing innovative technologies for the healthcare and consumer markets, announced today that Viridis BioPharma Pvt. Ltd. has begun selling and shipping Microfoam™ dressings to customers. Microfoam is the first advanced wound care dressing to utilize Quick-Med's proprietary non-leaching NIMBUS® technology. Viridis received approval by the Food and Drug Administration of India in September 2011 to manufacture and market Microfoam wound dressings incorporating NIMBUS antimicrobial technology.

NIMBUS represents a next generation in wound care. This unique technology offers surgeons, wound care clinicians, infection control experts and primary care doctors an important new weapon against the transmission of such virulent bacteria as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It is the first non-leaching antimicrobial available in a wound dressing.

"It's exciting that this unique technology is now available in an advanced wound dressing format, in an emerging market," said Bernd Liesenfeld, Quick-Med's president. "India's large population, increasing investments in health care and fast growing wound care market represents a significant opportunity for Viridis to provide patients and caregivers with great a product, and to drive sales with our unique, value-added NIMBUS antimicrobial feature."

The NIMBUS technology is designed to prevent bacteria developing resistance, and avoid releasing toxic material into the wound, so there is no impeding the wound healing process. It is a novel antimicrobial technology: non-leaching and effective even in high concentrations of body fluids. NIMBUS technology is easy for the caregiver to implement as part of prophylactic care for patients at risk for infections.

As part of its commercialization efforts, Viridis BioPharma has sponsored clinical trials to demonstrate the efficacy of Microfoam dressings. "India tops the diabetes sufferers list as per World Health Organization (WHO) figures and consequently chronic diabetic wounds and ulcers. Quick-Med's NIMBUS Technology applied through Microfoam dressing shows remarkable relief in burn and wound cases and particularly in diabetic chronic wounds, as well as in venous and pressure ulcers, in an Indian clinical trial," commented Dr. Dilip Mehta, CEO of Viridis BioPharma Pvt. Ltd.

Quick-Med Technologies Announces Further Expansion of Its NIMBUS(R) Technology Global Patent Portfolio

New Patents in India and China Plus Notice of Allowance in Canada Expand International NIMBUS Intellectual Property Coverage


Quick-Med Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: QMDT), a life sciences company that is developing innovative technologies for the healthcare and consumer markets, announced today advances in patent coverage in India, China, and Canada for the Company's novel, non-leaching NIMBUS® antimicrobial technology.

The State Intellectual Property of the People's Republic of China and the Patent Office of India have granted Quick-Med Technologies' pending patent entitled "Disinfectant with Quaternary Ammonium Polymer and Copolymers" in their respective jurisdictions. Additionally, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office has issued a "Notice of Allowance" for this pending patent in Canada. These new patents will significantly expand the international intellectual property coverage for NIMBUS.

The three new patents are similar to U.S. Patent No. 8,088,400, also entitled "Disinfectant with Quaternary Ammonium Polymer and Copolymers." They cover the Company's novel polyurethane-modified polycation, the newest member of the NIMBUS technology family of antimicrobials. NIMBUS technology encompasses the chemistry of antimicrobials that comprise a high charge density polycation that is built into the backbone of various polymers such as polyurethane in this case.

The new patents are key "composition-of-matter" patents that cover incorporation of a NIMBUS polycation into main chain of a urethane polymer. The physical state of the polyurethane polycation can be modified to alter the strength of the antimicrobial, the breathability of the film or coating and its flexibility or rigidity. The patents provide protection for various claims regarding the efficacy and durability of an antimicrobial polyurethane.

"This patent adds an exciting new dimension to our NIMBUS technology," says Dr. William Toreki, co-inventor and Quick-Med's vice president of Research & Development. "Our new polyurethane polycation has been licensed for medical adhesives and is well suited for a wide range of applications including films and coatings, catheters and other types of extruded tubing, and as a durable hand sanitizer."

"These NIMBUS patents are strategically important because they significantly expand the global coverage for our proprietary NIMBUS technology into exciting and emerging markets," said Dr. Bernd Liesenfeld, Quick-Med's president. "NIMBUS technology can make an important contribution to infection prevention programs in each of these markets."

NIMBUS technology provides efficacy against a broad range of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. NIMBUS antimicrobials are not depleted in use, maintain effectiveness even in the presence of large amounts of blood or body fluids, and by design, pose no risk of bacteria developing resistance.

NIMBUS non-leaching antimicrobial technology was cleared by FDA in 2009 and is the only non-leaching antimicrobial technology available in wound dressings. NIMBUS technology is protected by ten U.S. patents and patents pending and 24 foreign counterparts.
