Universal Detection Technology (http://www.udetection.com) (OTCBB:UNDT), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, announced today that it has received its first purchase order from the Company’s newly signed Israeli Distributor, M.D. Paled.
Under the new agreement, M.D. Peled will market and distribute Universal Detection Technology's Bio-Weapon Detection Systems to government and private sector users in Israel.
"Clearly, the threat of Biological weapons is an international issue as evidenced by the United Nations Security Council Meeting and passing of Resolution 1887. The resolution strengthens implementation for resolution 1540 which requires governments to establish domestic controls to prevent the proliferation of nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons and their means of delivery," said Jacques Tizabi, CEO of Universal Detection Technology. "UNDT’s Biological Weapons Detection Systems are being used right now by the US Army, defense contractors and first responders,” said Tizabi.
The initial order is for UNDT’s five agent handheld biodetection kits, which recently received certification by the Department of Homeland Security under the SAFETY Act.
Universal Detection Technology recently showcased its TS-10-5-agent biodetection kit at ASIS International 2009 in Anaheim, California earlier this month.
