Brad. Thanks for your response. Can you tell me how TCPI's device will not only "work" but how it can achieve an accuracy + precision of at least 85%? You have seen my list of reasons why their proposed technology platform is unacceptable. Perhaps you could address each item in my list specifically.

Even the scam company BICO can claim their device "works" with a stated accuracy of 55%. However, whether a device is invasive, non-invasive, or minimally invasive, it needs to meet a minimum standard of accuracy to be deemed acceptable by doctors and diabetes associations. (Would you be willing to calculate your insulin dosage from a device that is less than 85% accurate??) A company like Integ knows this and won't compromise their goal for accuracy + precision to please short-term traders in their stock. (I formulated this opinion after listening to Integ's last two quarterly conference calls.)

The most difficult task for these next generation of devices is the extraction of ISF (or ISF glucose ions) from the skin. As I have mentioned in my previous posts, I believe TCPI's technology platform is inferior in both the extraction and measurement process.

Real companies like Integ conduct studies with credible clinics during the development process to improve their development efforts and ultimately support their FDA filing. I have not seen any published studies from TCPI regarding their extraction process. Why is this?

When I label TCPI an "unexposed scam" I am being careful. < g> I have done my homework and the Wall Street fund dumbs have not. I do admire your courage to remain invested in TCPI after my previous comments. Your profits are now your reward for your own research and due diligence.
