"We are committed to taking the fastest possible route to commercializing our technologies," said Dr. Eugene Seymour, MD, MPH, CEO of the Company, adding, "We will need a cGMP facility capable of manufacturing our unique and novel nanomedicines as we prepare for human clinical trials. We are engaging with one of the world's best talent pools at G&E PLSG in order to minimize development leadtime."

The G&E PLSG will either locate an existing facility for conversion or arrange to finance and build a new facility for NanoViricides, Inc. The space is expected to comprise approximately 100,000 sq-ft. of manufacturing, laboratory, and corporate offices.

"Our strong preclinical successes against influenza, H5N1 bird flu, and rabies, clearly indicate that we should prepare for manufacturing," said Anil R. Diwan, Ph.D., President of the Company, adding, "Our new laboratory facilities in Woodbridge will be capable of supplying the various nanoviricides for all of our collaborations while the larger scale manufacturing facility is being developed."
