NNBP Nanobac Pharmaceuticals Inc (CE)

Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: NNBP) and its privately held merger partner Eureka Genomics, which applies its proprietary functional genomics platform technology to the analysis of complex biological systems to enable rapid pathogen analysis, and to inform the discovery and development of diagnostic, biopharma and cleantech products, announced that it is launching its first Eureka Genomics Center in North America.

Eureka plans to open 15 Genomics Centers around the world. The next three centers are scheduled to open in Southeast Asia, Central America and Europe, all within 12 months.

"We are very excited to finally provide our customers with a one stop shop from DNA extraction, sample preparation, Next Generation Sequencing, post sequencing and advanced bioinformatics analysis," said Michael Tippie, vice president of business development for Eureka Genomics.

For the first four months of 2009, Eureka Genomics has received over $500,000 in orders for its Next Generation Sequencing and bioinformatics services, and forecast over $3 million in sales for the next twelve months. Current customers include pharmaceutical, biotech and cleantech companies, universities, and U.S. government national laboratories.

Eureka Genomics has opted to utilize a Genome Analyzer as its first Next Generation Sequencer. Designed for facilities of all sizes, the Illumina Genome Analyzer has been adopted across genome centers worldwide, plus individual research labs, core and service facilities, and biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.
