EMGE-Stem Cell Play


I think the significance of this Press Release has been overlooked, and hope the company has more plans to explain its story:
Emergent Health Corp. (EMGE) Announces Patent Approval For Adult Stem
Cell Product

King of Prussia, PA--March 09, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --Emergent Health Corp. (OTC:EMGE.PK - News), a diversified holding corporation focused on the biotechnology sector, announces the Company has received approval from the US Patent and Trademark office for their adult stem cell nutrition product Neuvitale™ Life Support.

An Emergent spokesperson commented, “The Company is pleased to announce a license to market a formulation with ability to increase adult stem cells naturally from a person’s own bone marrow has been allowed by the US Patent and Trademark office. Now that this patent has been allowed, Emergent will seek further corporate and joint venture opportunities with firms capable of assisting entry into this untapped estimated Multi-Billion dollar market currently dominated by drugs with high costs.”

By 2004 the world market for Colony Stimulating Factor products, Neulasta® and Neupogen® marketed by Amgen was valued at $3.6 billion, a growth of 11% over 2003. That market has grown at an average annual growth rate of 16% over the previous 5 years. This is cited only as a market size barometer.

In addition to this product, the Company is actively exploring additional investment projects involved in the adult, umbilical cord, and embryonic stem cell sector to add to its growing portfolio of biotechnology ventures.

The Company is also pleased to announce that Emergent Health Corp has been added as a new component to the Ludlow Biotech Stock Index. A full research outline on the Company can be found at http://www.ludlowcapital.com/reports/bio/emge.html
