Easy-to-Use Kidz-Med product finds new vendor WESTON, Fla., Aug. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Kidz-Med, Inc., a subsidiary of American Scientific Resources Inc., (Pink Sheets: ASFX) today announced it has received an initial Purchase Order of the Kidz-Med Thermofocus 5-in-1 Non-contact Thermometers from another distinguished baby specialty retailer, just in time for the start of the 2009-2010 cold and flu season. Long recommended by doctors throughout the UK, Europe and Asia, the Thermofocus 5-in-1--which was used by medical personnel in Asia during the SARS epidemic (See BBC article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/2986469.stm)--is an ideal instrument to use to diagnose fevers associated with the flu since it has absolutely no contact with the skin, making for a completely hygienic and non-invasive experience. In just one second, it takes a temperature without ever touching a child's skin or body. It uses completely safe infrared technology clinically proven to be as accurate as standard rectal or ear thermometers while providing five readings of core body, baby's bottle, bath water, food and nursery room all with one easy to use device. At the retailer's request, the Company is not yet disclosing the name of the new customer, which will be conducting test sales in various stores, mostly in the Northeastern United States as well as one store in the Midwest. This specialty baby products retailer sells merchandise through baby specialty stores nationwide and through its website, which garners more than 500,000 monthly visitors including 300,000 unique visitors per month. The terms of the order will allow reorders in a manner that will permit Kidz-Med to position itself to meet future purchase order requests from the baby specialty stores as additional financing is made available. The Company believes its branding efforts have been well recognized as parents and caregivers search online and offline for the Kidz-Med Thermofocus 5-in-1, often referring to it in their feedback as "a lifesaver". "Being able to add this baby specialty chain to our list of esteemed vendors is extremely exciting for us. By distributing our unique product through yet another industry leader, we intend to build upon our previous success of increased first quarter sales," stated Dr. Christopher F. Tirotta, CEO of American Scientific Resources. In May, American Scientific Resources reported a marked increase in interest on non-contact thermometers in response to the growing threat of an H1N1 pandemic.
