T-Ray Science, Inc. (“T-Ray Science” or the “Company”), announces a milestone achievement with the completion of the pre-production prototype of Authenticare™, a pharmaceutical tablet analyzer for the authentication of solid dosage pharmaceuticals. The target markets for the device are pharmacies, consumers, law enforcement, corporate security, and others who need to identify counterfeit drugs that otherwise appear identical to the brand name drugs. According to the Center for Medicines in the Public Interest, global counterfeit drug sales will reach US $75 billion by 2010.

“Counterfeit drugs are a global, systemic problem and a great danger to public health in both developed and developing nations,” said Thomas Braun, CEO of T-Ray Science. “From the seeds of invention at the University of Waterloo, we have developed this innovative new product. Our goal is to offer a counterfeit drug detector which would be affordable in Asia, Africa and South America where the need is the greatest. Our product will cost about 75% less than existing counterfeit drug detectors, and with the completion of the pre-production prototype, we are one step closer to market.”

With Authenticare™, T-Ray Science is seeking to bring an affordable, portable, non-destructive solution to market which allows users to easily verify tablet authenticity. Authenticare™ connects to a standard laptop computer for control and readout.

The technology Authenticare™ is based on is a result of a successful collaboration with scientists at the University of Waterloo. In 2008, T-Ray Science filed two patent applications for hardware and software used by Authenticare™. Beginning in 2009, the design and production services of Sanmina-SCI Corporation of California were also utilized in the development of Authenticare™. The device will now undergo rigorous validation, safety, and field testing for the remainder of 2010.
