Implant Sciences Expands Commercial Deployments in Africa. Uganda Hotels a target...

Implant Sciences Corporation (otcqb:IMSC) (pinksheets:IMSC), a high technology supplier of systems and sensors for homeland security and defense markets, today announced shipments of its Quantum Sniffer(TM) QS-H150 handheld explosives detectors to customers in Nigeria, Uganda, and the Republic of Mali.

These shipments increase Implant Sciences' penetration in the African continent with deployments in the banking, hotel, and aviation security markets. In one instance, the QS-H150 was selected for hotel security due to the system's superior performance in identifying explosive compounds in challenging outdoor environments.

"Africa is facing a growing threat from terrorism while the continent continues its economic development and growth. We are seeing growing interest in security products from commercial users in developing regions including Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and now Africa," stated Glenn D. Bolduc, President and CEO of Implant Sciences. "We are steadily expanding our presence in Africa through our channel and we expect to see further traction in this market."

The QS-H150 uses no radioactive materials and features a low-maintenance design that is self-calibrating and self-clearing, providing very high levels of operational availability.
