United Kingdom Registration of New Insect Repellent Product
NO-SKEETO!(TM)
Field Trials Demonstrate Superior Performance Over Current
Market Leading Products
TyraTech, Inc. (AIM: TYR and TYRU), a natural life sciences
company, is pleased to announce that the Company has been granted
permission to sell its new personal insect repellent in the United
Kingdom. This means that the product is approved and ready for
immediate commercialization in retail channels. NO-SKEETO!(TM)
features TyraTech's Nature's Technology(TM) platform which
harnesses the power of natural ingredients to deliver best-in-class
efficacy and family safety.
Both Laboratory and Field trials have demonstrated that
NO-SKEETO!(TM) significantly outperforms 15% DEET for both mosquito
and tick repellency. Trials have been carried out using various
species of mosquito including those which are known vectors of West
Nile Virus, Malaria, Dengue fever, yellow fever and St Louis
encephalitis. Tick trials have included species which are vectors
for Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Southern tick
associated rash infection (STARI).
The Company has filed for patent protection for its
NO-SKEETO!(TM) formulation and has submitted data from the
laboratory and field trials for publication in two international
journals. The Company has already been granted registration for
NO-SKEETO!(TM) in the U.S. and German markets.
David Paton, TyraTech's Head of European Operations, said
"NO-SKEETO!(TM) provides an effective and timely solution for
families seeking superior protection without concerns over safety.
Our portfolio of European registrations is expected to continue to
grow in the coming months. We are currently in the process of
evaluating commercial and retail partners for this product and for
our other products."
