Medical/Technology: Sky Detective/Beryllus sign pact to track blood/vaccine in China

Eagle, Idaho (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.
