Medizone International Tightens Noose On Food-Borne Pathogens, Bed Bugs and MRSA

September 15, 2011


Following a string of laboratory trial successes with its flagship product, AsepticSure™, Medizone International has filed 3 international patent applications to protect its much-anticipated entry into the global food-processing, bed bugs and sports equipment markets.

San Francisco, CA September 15, 2011. Expanding on its already strong intellectual property protection program, Medizone International, Inc. (MZEI:OB MZEI:QB) has further strengthened its global position under the International Patent Cooperation Treaty. Three refined versions of its US Provisional Applications covering the bed bug, food processing and sports equipment markets, have now been filed.

Medizone's President and Director of Medical Affairs, Dr Michael E. Shannon stated, "The filing of our Insect Infestation Control application reflects a major step forward for Medizone in its insect control program, particularly in the area of bed bug infestation - a world-wide problem which, until now, has been extremely difficult if not impossible to deal with.

"What's most exciting about our recent work is that by modifying our AsepticSure™ protocol, we also destroy larvae and eggs with a single treatment.

"Like the highly resistant spores of bacteria such as C difficile and Bacillus Subtilis, bedbug eggs are very difficult to kill and are often deposited in hard to reach areas. But with our new AsepticSure™ protocol, nothing survives! Hotel and motel rooms, homes, theaters, to mention only a few problem areas, can now be rid of a bedbug infestation in a single treatment with the additional benefit of having any bacterial pathogen simultaneously eliminated"

Stonepicker, what company did you set up the online account with, this is sometning i've been thinking about lately.

I prefer to self direct my retirement, I started into RRSP, have the TFSA and will transfer the entire rrsp into the investment account sometime before I retire. Trick is to pay the least amount of tax when you retire. The RRSP is fully taxable. The investment account is taxed as a capital gain so will concentrate on buiding it. Lucked out lately with the Petrobacken stock up 61 percent in less than 2 months. My origional investment is also paying 1 percent per month in Div. Can't say that for every stock is not in the plus, must be willing to spend a little time, currently holding some cash in the account and waiting for the next purchase decision. I like the revenue property also. Best advice is your accountant and make up a retirement plan for yourself, what is going to happen to the farm? Give to kids, sell, what are the tax implications?

There is about six cites in the world residential real-
estate might not continue to crash or crash.

Luckily they are in saskatchewan.

Jim Cramer is the biggest douche bag walking and i
bet he ends up in jail in five years or at the end of a
noose.This man is n the same category
madoff,corzonnie and jim jones.

Daylate I really like Questrade for online trading. They
are low cost but give good service.

Property, I won't buy any in Mexico on this trip,
but interesting info. Real estate always does well
if purchased right.

[cottonpicken]

Good think,my understanding is you can't own
property in mexico,just lease it,like an indian
reserve,except in a third world country.

I have an account with Questrade and I would
warn anyone away from them. I absolutely hate
their customer service. I have some Canadian
controlled private corporation stocks in an rrsp or I
would be gone yesterday.

If you look around several banks have discount
brokerage houses that are very competitive.

Daylate, i'm with qtrade also, its pretty good, all the
major banks have good online trading accounts also .
i'm in the process of setting one up with CIBC. With
qtrade if you want to buy otc stocks ( over the counter
u.s. penny stocks ) you have to phone the order in,
also some extra fees for trades, it adds up over time. (
qtrade is BC based, different rules in that province )
We're the only modern country in the world that
doesn't have a single national regulatory commission.

Cottonpicken, you don't think cramer offers good
investment and strategic advice? I like listening to
him,it's too bad he only talks about US stocks. Always
interested in hearing another opinion though.
