Dear Katie,
First of all, please know that my associates at NanoBio join me in
desiring the very best for your daughters' progress. In regard your
inquiry, our technology employs high-energy, oil-in-water emulsions to
kill the targeted organism. In appearance and feel, a nanoemulsion is a
thin white liquid, very similar to skim milk. The unique aspect of
products derived from the company's NanoStat technology is that, unlike
currently available therapies, NanoBio's treatments are antibiotic free
and selectively toxic to microbes while non-irritating to skin and
mucous membranes:

As you may be aware, we are in the initial laboratory stages with the
development of our product for CF. We have yet to confirm that what we
see in the laboratory will be appropriate for use in man. Next steps in
the long development pathway and prior to initiation of a Phase I
clinical trial will be determined by results from additional laboratory
studies and FDA approval.
We have expectations that products that are in development by NanoBio as
well as several other organizations should make meaningful contributions
to the quality of life for CF patients. Treatment options have expanded
significantly over the last 30 years that I have been involved in the
medical industry and undoubtedly, progress will continue.
I will be happy to address other questions that you may have in the
future. In addition, more information on NanoBio and our drug
development programs are described on the NanoBio web site:

John Coffey
