HEB today released the results of laboratory tests that shows that its Ampligen and Alferon are potentially useful against the H5N1 flu virus.

The research indicated that Ampligen can provide cross-protection against avian flu viral mutations and can boost up to 100x the effectiveness of Tamiflu and Relenza,which are the only two drugs recognized for treating the asian flu.

Other tests showed that Alferon can stimulate genes that induce the production of interferon.

These results are been presented at today's American Society for Microbiology Biodefense Research Meeting in Washington, DC.

HEB's stock opened with an upgap.
