Equine Athletes Use Theralase Cold Laser Therapy…..and Win! http://ping.fm/tbV6u

Two Equine Athletes Use Theralase Cold Laser Therapy…..and Win!

Up The Credit won the 28th edition of the $1.5-million Pepsi North America Cup in the world’s richest pacing event for three-year-old pacing colts and geldings last weekend.
As well, on Saturday, Blue Porsche vanquished a group of serious peers in the $347,000 Goodtimes Stakes to remain perfect in 2011 after three starts. He’s won eight of 12 outings and earned more than $600,000.
Carl Jamieson said "I use the Theralase laser on every one of my horses, including Up The Credit.  It's great for knees, hocks, tendons and especially sesmoiditis.  I use it on surgeries and wounds.  I've never seen complete healing so clean and fast. It's tremendous!"

Theralase and George Brown College Join in Government-Funded Research to Combat Food Contamination - TV Coverage

Theralase Technologies Inc. (TSXV:TLT) has partnered with George Brown College’s Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts to conduct applied research in the use of patented photodynamic compounds (PDCs) activated by its proprietary laser technology to destroy microbial pathogens associated with food contamination. See the news story on CTV at http://watch.ctv.ca/news/health/lifetime-with-pauline-chan/#clip489318
The results of the study are expected in September 2011 and will be followed by further lab testing and a pilot project at a commercial food processing facility.

Theralase and George Brown College Join in Government-Funded Research to Combat Food Contamination

Toronto - June 14, 2011 - Theralase Technologies Inc. (TSXV:TLT) announced today that it is partnering with George Brown College’s Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts to conduct applied research in the use of patented photodynamic compounds (PDCs) activated by its proprietary laser technology to destroy microbial pathogens associated with food contamination.

This food safety approach, believed to be the first of its kind, is supported by the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).  PDCs are light sensitive molecules that have the ability to attach themselves to specific cell types, in this case food pathogens such as bacteria, and are able to destroy these cells upon light activation.

Theralase Technologies Inc, founded in Toronto in 1995, designs, develops and manufactures patented, superpulsed laser technology utilized in biostimulation and biodestruction applications.

“In the wake of many outbreaks of consumer food contaminations associated with microbial pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes (Listeria) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) and their various strains, Theralase initiated the study to determine the feasibility of using our patented PDCs for sanitation in the food service, food manufacturing and medical industries,” said Roger Dumoulin - White, President & CEO of Theralase Inc.  “Given their history and pedigree in culinary arts and additional focus on food applied research, the George Brown College Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts is a perfect partner for applied research in new and innovative sanitation protocols and techniques using the company’s patented lasers and photodynamic compounds.”

The 14-week food safety feasibility study will determine the specific areas in food processing facilities where pathogen contamination is not being adequately addressed by current processes and procedures. The contamination danger is a fundamental and ongoing concern of the food industry.

”Food  safety is an increasingly important public health issue as food recalls are a costly exercise that can easily tarnish a company’s reputation of quality. At George Brown we are always looking for relevant initiatives to conduct applied research that can provide our students with real time, real life learning opportunities as well as mutually benefiting our industry partners by providing effective solutions.” said Winnie Chiu, Director, Food Innovation & Research, and Principal Investigator, George Brown College.

The results of the study are expected in September 2011 and will be followed by further lab testing and a pilot project at a commercial food processing facility.
