PRESS RELEASE
PEGASUS
ACQUIRES WORLDWIDE MARKETING RIGHTS TO EFFECTIVE
BIOLOGICAL-CONCEPT MOLD REMOVAL SYSTEM
Laboratory Tests Successfully
Completed Pegasus Pharmaceuticals (PINKSHEETS: PGUZ)
today announced that it has acquired the worldwide marketing
rights to an innovative new biological product called
the Mold Remove System, which has recently completed
a series of rigorous independent laboratory tests during
2006.
The control and elimination of mold has become a multi-billion-dollar
market worldwide. Molds consist of such fungi as Aspergillus
sp., Cladosporium sp., Fusarium sp., Penicillum sp. and
others. One of the most frequently cited fungi is Stachybotrys
Chartarum, commonly known as black mold. Often referred
to as mildew, molds are a subset of fungi that produce
fluffy or powdery growth on surfaces such as cloth, carpets,
leather, wood, sheetrock, insulation and even food. They
may grow at high levels indoors in homes or buildings
under ideal conditions which include moisture, proper
nutrients, temperature and certain levels of light. Toxic
black mold can cause severe health problems including
allergic reactions, headaches, skin disease, fungal infections,
sinus problems, asthma and a litany of other human diseases
that are now being connected to molds.
Pegasus' new product, the Mold Remove System (MRS),
is based on a new biological concept which controls the
mold spores and prevents their growth. It is a multi-component
mold control system which removes black mold infestation,
cleans and disinfects surfaces and has long-lasting effects
on the prevention of future mold growth. MRS consists
of a unique combination of non-toxic, biodegradable ingredients.
Other mold prevention products on the market involve
chemically aggressive, hazardous and harmful compounds
which are only temporarily effective. Pegasus' Mold Remove
System is a new generation biological system which is
not harmful to humans. It may be utilized safely in any
home, school, hospital or commercial environment without
any specific precautions.
The Company's MRS product performed extremely well in
a series of rigorous independent laboratory tests, the
most recent being performed by ECA Inc., a preeminent
testing laboratory based in San Diego, California. ECA
tested the product on two pieces of drywall material.
Both were treated with black mold consisting of Stachybotrys
Chartarum, Aspergillus sp. and Penicillum sp. Both surfaces
were kept in high humidity conditions of 80-90% at +4
degrees Centigrade. After initial growth of black mold,
one of the surfaces was treated with MRS. Both treated
and untreated surfaces were observed for a period of
sixty days. The untreated surface exhibited typical mold
growth, which spread to approximately 80% of the surface.
The Mold Remove System was effective in black mold cleaning,
as well as its growth. After sixty days of the experiment,
no mold growth was observed on the treated drywall surface.
The product demonstrated 100% efficiency against growth
of the black mold fungi. MRS has effectively shown that
not only does it clean and disinfect surfaces, but that
it kills all fungi cells and black mold spores while
preventing future spore growth.
Pegasus is now implementing an integrated marketing
campaign in North America and Europe for the introduction
of its Mold Remove System featuring its safe, easy-to-use
application, its ability to prevent future mold growth
and the fact that it is environmentally friendly.
