Sky Detective/Beryllus Sign Groundbreaking Agreement to Track Perishable
Blood/Vaccine in China
EAGLE, Idaho, July 1, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Sky Detective, Inc. today
announced the company will partner with Beryllus, a provider of cold chain
medical tracking solutions, to track biologicals, including blood and vaccines
in China. Sky Detective, a provider of advanced global intelligence, security
and GPS/CDMA assisted asset tracking solutions, will assist Beryllus in
designing a technologically advanced system that will incorporate GPS assisted
tracking capabilities. This system will be capable of tracking temperatures over
distances and reporting the current temperature and location on demand.
"This is a significant development in our international presence and in the
application of our technology," said Jerry Thompson, CEO of Sky Detective. "We
are pleased to be partnering with Beryllus in developing a tracking solution for
perishable medical products. Recent regulations in China have mandated that
biologicals be maintained within a specific temperature range according to
international standards. We believe our tracking technology will be a critical
component in insuring complete cold chain transit system compliance."
Dr. Paul J. Wojnicki, CEO of Beryllus, said the company is currently involved in
temperature-controlled transit trials with a major federal hospital system and
regional blood bank in Chongqing Province. "Currently, a wired solution with a
probe is employed for tracking the temperature of in-transit sensitive medical
products," said Dr. Wojnicki. "Successful integration of the Sky Detective GPS
tracking system would represent a major technological advance in safeguarding
blood and vaccines and could lead to its adoption by the Ministry of Health in
Beijing."
Sky Detective and Beryllus also noted that this new system could be applied
during catastrophic events such as earthquakes, tsunamis and other natural
disasters.
