Universal Detection Technology (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, reported today that it has received a purchase order for its 5-agent biological detection equipment from Boeing Service Company, a fully owned subsidiary of Boeing Defense.

UNDT's biodetection equipment has been extensively used by first responders and private industry throughout the country. The equipment has been evaluated by the U.S. DOD as well as the United Kingdom military. The equipment's capacities include:
-- No cross-reactivity with near neighbor strains
-- No cross-reactivity to household powders
-- No set up time
-- No expensive reader needed
-- No decontamination requirements
-- No false positives
-- No false negatives
-- No hook effect
"With last year's recognition from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as an 'Approved Product for Homeland Security' under the SAFETY Act, UNDT's 5-agent biodetection kit has been a key choice in biothreat security for a number of large companies like Boeing Service Company," said Jacques Tizabi, Universal Detection Technology CEO. "UNDT's 5-agent biodetection kit is a fast and reliable on-site test of harmful bioagents that can threaten the operations of any corporate facility," continued Tizabi.
