Luminar Media Group Inc., Provides Update on Next Generation Technology, Jenex to Test TherOZap™ Against the West Nile Virus and Zika Virus


Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Luminar Media Group, Inc., (Luminar, OTCMKTS: LRGR), reports that development of the working prototype for TherOZap™ is progressing well and expected to be completed in 4 to 6 weeks. On December 8, 2016, the Company and The Jenex Corporation announced that TherOZap™ device utilizing proprietary features would be tested against the Zika and West Nile Virus.  Jenex is now in the final stages of design work which includes technical advances such as the selection of optimal components and form factor. Chris Cook, CEO and Chairman of Luminar Media Group, Inc., (Luminar, OTCMKTS: LRGR), and global licensee for TherOZap™ outside of Canada comments: “The possibility that this technology may provide an opportunity to mitigate the global risks associated with mosquito borne diseases, such as Zika, is exciting.  We are optimistic that testing of TherOZap™ technology will indicate a positive effect at reducing the harm associated with the Zika virus.” The Company would like to caution that the TherOZap™ device may not be effective at all against the Zika and West Nile Virus.

The company expects to initiate testing of a prototype by a world renowned scientific research lab against the Zika and the West Nile virus towards the end of the first quarter of 2017.  Testing would be comprised of in-vitro tests to determine if TherOZap™ is effective in inactivating both the Zika and West Nile virus and potentially other mosquito borne diseases.  In addition, the lab testing will determine any anti-viral, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory benefits of the technology. The TherOZap™ device will be completely portable handheld device. Images of the device will be provided on the Company’s website upon completion of the working prototypes. 

Rob Fia, Jenex CEO commented:

“We are pleased with the progress of development of the TherOZap™ device and the exciting new features we’ve added to the device.  Jenex is truly a leader and early mover in this space.”

Jenex received a Class II medical device status from the FDA for its platform technology that is indicated for the relief of the pain, itch, and inflammation from over 20,000 different insect stings and bites, (including bees, wasps, hornets, mosquitoes, black flies and jellyfish). Jenex received approval for the above claims from FDA (United States) in 1997.

Jenex continues to further develop, and explore other applications, for its platform technology. If you would like to stay informed on the development of TherOZap™ please visit www.therozap.com
