About Dermisonics, Inc. -- Dermisonics is an intellectual property company and advanced technology incubator that is primarily focused on developing and marketing its transdermal and subdermal technologies for applications in the drug (U-Strip), skin care (U-Wand), and antiseptic (A-Wand) fields. Its breakthrough system, called the U-Strip, facilitates the efficient and needle-free delivery of drugs with large molecular structures into the bloodstream. This system is based on a radical integration of microelectronics and ultrasonic science with a product-carrying patch and represents a quantum leap in non-invasive, transdermal delivery technology. Tests have shown that the U-Strip facilitates the transdermal delivery of Insulin as well as potentially at least 175 other existing drugs through the pores of the skin. Conventionally available transdermal technology cannot effectively deliver these drugs due to their large molecular size. The Company has also developed major line extensions for applications in the medical (Antiseptic Wand) and skin care (U-Wand) fields. For further information contact Bruce Haglund, CEO.
