U.S. Commerce Department Features Universal Detection Technology’s Anthrax Detection Unit In Hong Kong

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Universal Detection Technology announced today that its Anthrax Detection system has been added to the list of featured products on the Commercial Service’s list of Featured US Exporters (FUSE) in Hong Kong.

“Hong Kong is an international financial center and is expected to keep on playing a major role as a bridge between the mainland China and the world in trade, investment, and stock market. Like other global financial hubs it plays a major strategic role in the war on terror,” said Jacques Tizabi, UDTT’s Chairman and CEO. “As we approach the 5 year anniversary of the anthrax attacks in this country and there is a growing demand for bio-defense measures, we are very pleased to be working together with the Department of Commerce,” he added.

Last week, the company announced that it was working together with the U.S. Department of Commerce to promote its Anthrax Detection units in Belgium, the Capital of Europe, and the home of the European Commission.
