HealthEdge Completes Advanced Bio-Technologies Investment

  TAMPA, FLORIDA– May 4, 2007 – HealthEdge Investment Partners, LLC (“HealthEdge”) announced today that it has completed its acquisition of Advanced Bio-Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“ABT”).

ABT is a privately held dermatological products company that markets a patented, self-drying, silicone-based range of products for scar prevention and treatment. ABT’s flagship product, Kelo-cote® Advanced Formula Scar Gel, is a proprietary silicone technology used to treat and prevent abnormal scarring such as keloid, burn, and hypertrophic scars. The product is currently sold in the U.S. market through sales representatives and partnerships with several U.S. wholesalers to U.S. physician offices, pharmacies, and internet retailers. Kelo-cote® is sold internationally through distributors in Europe, South Korea, Venezuela, Mexico, India, Brazil, and other countries around the world. Brian W. Anderson, a Managing Partner of HealthEdge, said, “We are excited to enter the dermatology space and believe we can help accelerate the growth of this unique product both domestically and internationally as well as acquire other product capabilities for the business. ABT has already established an international presence and foothold, especially in Europe, and there are significant opportunities elsewhere in which to expand. We intend to work closely with the ABT management team to grow the business organically and we will also use the company’s existing technology as a platform to develop new products.” ABT President Paul Guilbaud added, “This is a new stage in the exciting development of ABT. This transaction allows us to ramp up sales and marketing efforts in the U.S., build the necessary infrastructure for our world-wide sales expansion, and allow us to support our International distributors. And, with HealthEdge, we have definitely partnered with the right type of strategic capital providers.”
