MMTC Micro Imaging Technology Inc (CE)

Micro Imaging Technology Inc. (Pink Sheets:MMTC), formerly Electropure Inc. ("ELTP"), announced today that the company has moved facilities from Laguna Hills to San Clemente, effective May 1, 2006. The move comes as a result of the recent divestiture of the company's EDI operations and the need for expanded technology and laboratory space. "The new facilities offer us ample and more suitable space to effectively conduct our core function of developing our breakthrough MIT technology and allow for future growth," said Floyd Panning, president of MIT.

The system measures scattered light intensity as individual microbes pass through a laser beam. The intensity pattern of the scattered light is a direct consequence of the size, shape and external and internal optical characteristics of the microbe. MIT has demonstrated the ability to detect and immediately identify the microbes Escherichia coli, Listeria, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella and other pathogenic bacteria. The company recently had its identification process verified by an independent, internationally recognized biological testing laboratory which designed and performed a comparative test that measured the accuracy, speed and efficiency of MIT's rapid microbe identification system against conventional gas chromatographic and biological processes. The comparative tests were in a double blind experiment, meaning that the independent laboratory technicians, using the MIT system and the well-recognized alternative processes, were not aware of the various microbes' identity. The Test Report, in the company's opinion, demonstrated the accuracy, speed and efficiency of the MIT system over conventional processes. The Report is available from the company.
