• Petroteq resumed oil production in Utah following a facility upgrade aimed at maximizing production capacity
• The company’s clean oil extraction technology is much more environmentally friendly and capable of bringing down production costs per barrel in comparison to similar technologies
• The company announced that it will be holding a conference call in December 2019 to provide an update on its operating results and financial status

As the world is moving toward more environmentally-friendly processes, technological advancements like those introduced by Petroteq Energy Inc. (TSX.V: PQE) (OTC: PQEFF) are becoming increasingly important for the oil field.

Petroteq’s Clean Oil Recovery Technology (CORT) makes it possible to extract oil from ground surface oil sands without the production of waste or greenhouse emissions. The technology also doesn’t require the use of water or high temperatures. The only product returned back to nature upon the completion of the extraction is clean sand.

The company’s ability to employ this technology is enhanced by a recently completed upgrade at its Utah Asphalt Ridge facility. As a result of the program, Petroteq improved its resource sands separation process.

Through the upgrades, Petroteq plans to consistently increase production and potentially enhance cash flow in what is currently a much more favorable pricing environment, Peteotreq CEO David Sealock said.

Petroteq initiated its facility upgrades to overcome challenges posed by the coarseness of the Utah sands. The facility upgrade will help the company process a higher volume of sand ore per day with a quality that better matches the needs of the local refineries.

In October, the company resumed operations and, according to Petroteq Executive Chairman Alex Blyumkin (http://ibn.fm/g33VZ), “Petroteq and our strategic partners are very excited about the potential future of this technology as the first in Utah and the USA to commercially produce surface oil sands reserves.” All of the upgrade work has evolved Petroteq’s environmentally friendly technology from a batch to a semi-continuous production process, Blyumkin added.

In December, the company will review its operating results following the resumption of operations. Petroteq has scheduled a conference call for the end of the year to release an update about its operations and financial situation. Additional details will be provided as the date of the conference call approaches.

Petroteq is a Canadian-registered company engaged in the development and implementation of proprietary technologies for environmentally safe extraction of heavy oils from oil sands, shallow oil deposits and oil shale deposits.

• CIIX subsidiary CBD Biotech Inc. has expanded into seven powerful Asian markets
• The Southeast Asia e-commerce market is projected to reach $230 billion by 2025
• Via Shopee, the company has access to over seven million active buyers across multiple countries

ChineseInvestors.com Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX), a provider of financial information and services to a global Chinese speaking community, announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, CBD Biotech Inc., has expanded into six new countries and a new region of China (http://ibn.fm/CbhnZ) – seven significant markets. While CIIX is still focused on its original mission of providing financial information in the Chinese language character sets, its subsidiary is making a name for itself in the emerging global CBD market.

CBD Biotech has created a product line designed for the international Chinese market. The announcement of the subsidiary’s expansion follows on the heels of six new hemp-infused skincare products that were designed and launched to increase brand loyalty and awareness (http://ibn.fm/MNwe0). As additional product launches are already being planned, CBD Biotech appears to be assertively riding the wave of the burgeoning cannabis market.

“We expect to continue this momentum with the anticipated launch of three additional skincare products before the end of 2019,” CBD Biotech Chief Financial Officer Alex Hamilton stated in a news release. “As a first mover in the CBD skincare industry in China, we are encouraged by U.S. market trends in the last year, which we believe strengthens the overall acceptance of CBD, including the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill which authorizes the sale of many CBD products, including skin-care and cosmetic products, and the recently announced acquisition of Lord Jones (private) by Cronos Group (NASDAQ: CRON) for $300 million. We believe we are moving in the right direction, in the right markets.”

CBD Biotech does seem to be moving into the right spaces at the right time, and credits its recent expansion to its newest sales channel, Shopee. A popular Singaporean e-commerce platform, Shopee boasts four million registered businesses, 200 million app downloads, 30 million social media fans and over seven million active buyers. It is currently the largest e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and is tapping into a quickly growing e-commerce market, one that is expected to reach $230 billion by 2025 (http://ibn.fm/650ti).

“This dynamic and very popular platform in Southeast Asia has allowed CBD Biotech to execute on our plans for expansion throughout Asia,” stated Hamilton. “Thanks to Shopee, we are now in seven major markets: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines and Taiwan, China.”

The expansion through Shopee is a vital part of the company’s strategic plan to build a loyal customer base while also expanding geographically. CBD Biotech is committed to meeting the same high standards that CIIX has held since its inception. As CBD Biotech CEO Summer Yun noted the company’s goal, he hopes that “when one thinks of CBD skincare/cosmetics, CBD Biotech is the first name that comes to mind.”

• Major U.S. telecommunications carriers are increasing spending on 5G infrastructure
• Spectrum Global recently announced a key contract win with a Tier-1 infrastructure aggregator
• SGSI boasts a global track record of more than 150,000 projects in its 34-year history

With the sign-off of an agreement to provide 5G support services to a U.S.-based, Tier-1 telecommunications infrastructure aggregator, Spectrum Global Solutions Inc. (OTCQB: SGSI) continues its mission to build and service end-to-end communications networks at home and abroad. 5G rollout is proceeding at a rapid pace, and expenditure on infrastructural projects is climbing. Spectrum is well positioned to capitalize on this rising TELCO CAPEX.

Cellular phone technology has come a long way since the 1G (first-generation) analog systems of the 1980s that transmitted voice communications and little else. The shift to digital in the early 1990s, with 2G systems, allowed texting, and, just before the turn of the millennium, 3G made the web accessible from mobile devices. Circa 2008, 4G LTE (long-term evolution) came along, which drove everything 10 times faster. 5G is faster still.

Today’s fastest 4G modems max out at 2 Gb/sec, while 5G’s maximum speed is 20 Gb/sec. Moreover, 5G’s high speed is coupled with near zero latency: about one millisecond (0.001 sec). Latency is the time lapse between sending and receiving information when devices communicate. By comparison, human reaction time is 150-300 milliseconds.

Among the many possibilities, 5G’s real-time potential appears to be well suited to self-driving cars. Imagine a future where hundreds of real-time connected cars travel down a highway, each knowing exactly where every other car is without any human input. No accidents, in other words. This halcyon scenario isn’t possible quite yet because the necessary infrastructure isn’t in place. But change is in the air.

5G uses high-frequency millimeter waves as opposed to the lower-frequency waves employed by present cellular technologies. But unlike their larger-wave cousins, millimeter waves can’t travel farther than a few hundred meters and can’t travel through walls or bad weather. As a result, major carriers are building an entirely new infrastructure of transmitters, located every few hundred meters, to facilitate 5G. Driven by increased spending from Sprint and T-Mobile, CAPEX by the four largest U.S. carriers – AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon – rose to $55.71 billion in 2018, up from $53.72 billion in 2017, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence (http://ibn.fm/jy0X7). This will undoubtedly increase as AT&T and Verizon expand their 5G programs, with engineering service companies such as Spectrum benefiting from the largesse.

In addition, the company recently announced a key two-year, nationwide, engineering-services contract with a Tier-1 infrastructure aggregator in support of 5G network deployment efforts. The contract is for outside-plant engineering services surrounding an optical fiber-fed, 200-plus site, metropolitan-area 5G infrastructure deployment (http://ibn.fm/pEnNW).

“We are pleased to announce another Tier-1 contract win supporting the rollout of a 5G network in a major metropolitan area in the United States,” SGSI President Keith Hayter stated in a news release. “We continue to see ramping demand for our services to power the 5G connectivity revolution, the infrastructure spending for which we expect to continue unabated for the next several years.”

The engineering services company has a global track record of successfully executing more than 150,000 projects since commencing operations 34 years ago. The future looks bright for 5G because, unlike previous technological generations, the technology is about more than mobile phones. Its real-time latency capabilities may be just what the IoT needs to get going.

• Targeting the $160 billion U.S. hotel industry
• Targeting the $100 billion U.S. vacation rental industry
• Proprietary InsurTech Platform

InsuraGuest Inc. is a SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) company utilizing its proprietary flagship InsurTech software platform to provide specialized insurance products to end users in the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) markets. The company’s first focus is on the B2B hotels and vacation rentals sectors, where its API integrates with the clients’ property management systems to offer guests a specialized guest protection policy. The platform and policy combination “InsurTech” product helps transfer the exposure to liability away from the client/property while guests benefit from potential accident and loss coverage during their stay.

InsuraGuest’s platform is currently capable of integrating with approximately 70 different hotel and vacation rental property management systems, giving it access to roughly 40,000 properties worldwide.

The company continues to pursue expansion opportunities and recently signed a Letter of Intent with a master general agent in the United Kingdom and Europe to distribute its platform and products to hotel and vacation rental markets in those regions, as well as plans to expand to Asia in 2020.

Protecting Guests, Enhancing Customer Experience

InsuraGuest is the first line of defense for both the property and the guest.

InsuraGuest is purchased by the hotel or vacation rental “property,” which offers the policy to each registered guest and its occupants for an additional fee. The specialized policy affords coverage for theft of personal property while in the hotel, as well as accidental medical expense and accidental death and dismemberment, up to the policy limits of $2,500 to $50,000.

Market Opportunity

The U.S. hotel industry generated more than $218 billion in annual revenues in 2018, an increase of $10 billion from the previous year, according to STR’s 2019 HOST Almanac. The European market is more than double the size of the U.S. market. According to Oxford Economics, there were 6.4 billion nights stayed in the world, with 2.6 billion hotel nights in Asia, 2.8 billion nights stayed in Europe, and 1.1 billion nights in the United States. Additionally, $100 billion was spent on vacation rentals in the United State alone, where there are approximately 4.5 million second homes are being managed by a third-party rental company.

With distribution in Europe and the United States, InsuraGuest’s demographics combined will total 3.9 billion nights stayed, and will more than double its vacation rental opportunities.

Within this burgeoning, high-demand industry is risk of liability to guest injury. For example, gym injuries are among the top five most common hotel accidents. Without proper hedges in place, the property may be liable in a personal injury claim or lawsuit.

Though the potential for accidents, slip and falls and mishaps can be widespread, it can be covered under the InsuraGuest Specialized Guest Protection Policy to provide guests a worry-free and enjoyable stay that potentially increases loyalty for the property.

Business Highlights

• Targeting hotels and vacation rentals, a multi-billion-dollar industry
• Providing the first line of defense in case of accident, loss or death
• Expanding distribution reach with footing in European hotel and vacation rental markets
• Expansion into Asia by 2020

• The company partnered with an inventor to obtain reissue patent US RE38,137, titled ‘Programmable Multiple Company Credit Card System’, issued in 2003 with 35 claims
• The original patent application for the novel technology was filed in September 1995, with patent protection first granted in U.S. Patent 5,859,419, issued in January 1999
• The company has filed a lawsuit against Apple, accusing the tech giant of unauthorized manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale and/or import of products that embody the inventions of US RE38,137

New York City-based intellectual property (IP) asset management company Quest Patent Research Corp. (OTCQB: QPRC) is fully committed to supporting individual inventors and small companies protect and monetize their innovations by partnering with them in prosecuting patents, identifying monetization opportunities and protecting them from patent infringement or IP theft. Operating through majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, Quest Patent Research’s commitment is clearly illustrated by a recent case involving a universal financial data system technology currently in its portfolio and which Quest maintains has been infringed by Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).

In 2000, the company partnered with the named inventor of U.S. patent 5,859,419, Silicon Valley engineer Sol H. Wynn, currently Sol M. Li – a hardware and firmware engineer with more than 30 years of experience in design and architecture, training junior engineers and technicians, digital electronic theory and its applications. He holds five U.S. Patents to directed to several of his technological innovations as well as international patents in China, Taiwan and India. With the help of Quest, a reissue application was filed in 2001 and an additional 22 claims were granted in 2003.

According to the specification of the patent, the invention disclosed in the patent “relates generally to financial data systems. More particularly, the invention relates to methods and apparatus for a universal financial data system, part of which advantageously serves as a highly portable cash substitute that is also capable of electronically compiling, storing and retrieving data related to multitudes of financial accounts and transactions in real time as the transactions occur.”

Lawsuit Against Apple

On April 12, 2019, Quest NetTech filed a lawsuit against Apple Inc. alleging willful and deliberate infringement of US RE38,137.

As per the complaint filed with the court, the accused devices include “electronic devices such as, but not limited to the iPhone 6 (hereinafter the “Accused Devices”). The Accused Devices, together with Apple’s software components such as, but not limited to, Apple Pay, iOS 8, iOS 9, and/or iOS 10 are configured to interact with Apple’s servers which provide the Apple Pay service, among other services provided by Apple and utilized by Apple’s customers when operating the Accused Devices. The complaint also states that “NetTech has not licensed or otherwise authorized Apple to make, use, offer for sale, sell, or import any Accused Devices and/or products that embody the inventions of the RE38,137 Patent.” The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas; Case No. 2:19-cv-00118-JRG.

According to Quest Patent Research, this action further demonstrates the company’s commitment to helping owners monetize compelling IP, as well as its recognition of forward-thinking technology, given that the products accused in the lawsuit significantly post-date the patented invention.

• As the United States has emerged from the most recent economic recession during the past decade, travel and tourism-related industries have bloomed to historic levels of activity
• InsuraGuest has developed a proprietary InsurTech software platform that delivers a specialized insurance policy to hotels and vacation rental properties, which covers the guest during their stay.
• The insurance provides coverage for guest in the form of theft recovery, accidental medical expenses and accidental death and dismemberment
• InsuraGuest recently announced an LOI that extends its InsurTech platform and insurance products from the United States to Europe and the United Kingdom
• Europe’s hospitality stay market is more than double the market size in the United States, indicating room for great potential in serving hotel and vacation rental guests with the InsurTech insurance platform

Salt Lake City-based SaaS provider InsuraGuest recently announced a landmark LOI for the company that opens the doors to the United Kingdom’s and Europe’s hotel and vacation rental markets for its proprietary InsurTech insurance platform.

The platform’s API already works with about 70 different computerized hotel and vacation rental property management systems. The InsuraGuest InsurTech software delivers specialized guest protection policies, helping member properties transfer their exposure to liability (http://ibn.fm/pmm8Z).

The coverage, unlike travelers insurance, is a specialized policy that provides a first line of defense for both the hotel or vacation rental property and the travelers during their stays, with a potential of up to 40,000 different properties, and is purchased by the hotel property and then included with each guest’s folio charges for the stay. The policy provides coverage for theft of personal property, accidental medical expenses, and accidental death and dismemberment.

“We are excited to be expanding our distribution into Europe. The European market is more than twice the size of the U.S.,” InsuraGuest Chairman and CEO Douglas Anderson stated in a news release about the LOI (http://ibn.fm/tTbaa). “Last year there were 2.8 billion hotel nights stayed in Europe compared to 1.1 billion in the US. Additionally, $100 billion was spent on vacation rentals.”

A decade after the United States’ travel industry stepped from the shadows of a significant economic recession and shook hands with numerous emerging markets around the globe, the travel, vacation rental, and hotel industries are experiencing historic levels of consumer demand. Technological innovations like InsuraGuest have fueled the demand, energizing worldwide wanderlust by enabling ride-hailing services, alt-finance fluidity, shared selfie “wish you were here” moments and an array of accommodations options relatively easy to engage from half a world away.

In the United States alone, hotel gross bookings grew from $116 billion to $185 billion between 2009 and 2017, according to Deloitte (http://ibn.fm/nirXt). Last year, the travel and hospitality industries’ revenues were expected to top $500 billion, according to the company. While the industry insights firm anticipates the growth trend may slow in the near future, travel market segments are still expected to remain healthy.

“With distribution in Europe and the US, our demographics combined will total 3.9 billion nights stayed,” Anderson stated.

Online claim management is easy and timely, and it is available 24-hour a day through the company’s dashboard.

• New privacy laws in California place SRAX ahead of the competition
• Privacy has always been a consumer right for SRAX
• Building a reliable, opted-in consumer dataset has long-term, recurring revenue potential for SRAX

SRAX Inc. (NASDAQ: SRAX), a digital marketing and consumer data management technology company, has developed a consumer-managed data marketplace where people can own and earn from their data. As new privacy laws come into play in California, Los Angeles-based SRAX is already ahead of the competition.

BIGtoken, built by SRAX, offers a secure and transparent environment for consumers to own and earn from their data. Long before California law makers were writing legislation that valued the privacy of individuals over the agenda of big players (i.e. Facebook, Google, Amazon), SRAX was putting the consumer in the driver’s seat. Founded in 2010, the company has sought from the beginning to provide highly valued, consumer-powered data that reveals brands’ core consumers. By providing the consumer with essential key control, the company has unlocked the true value of data.

While other companies are adjusting budgets to cover the cost of compliancy to a new California law by January 1, 2020, BIGtoken has already sidestepped the legal data issue because it requests users’ permission for data sharing when those users initially sign up for the platform. BIGtoken puts control in the hands of the consumer by providing the right to privacy, awareness and choice from the get-go (http://ibn.fm/KG5zt). Once users sign up, they are able to determine and make decisions on how much of their information is shared and to whom. For SRAX, privacy has always been a right.

Doing the right thing from day one has placed SRAX a step ahead in the industry. Competitors in digital marketing and consumer data management will be spending up to $55 billion to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) (http://ibn.fm/LtGNZ). The bill gives California residents the right to be informed about how companies gather and use their data, an ideal that is an integral component of BIGtoken’s core mission. BIGtoken has been building consumers’ trust, resulting in an increase of consumer opted-in data made available to brands, making that data far more valuable than information collected through data mining.

SRAX is building reliable, opted-in consumer data set that will have a long-term recurring revenue stream. As consumers become more aware of the value of their data, they naturally expect to be compensated for it. The larger social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Snapchat are experiencing consumer backlash as questions are being asked and more privacy laws are going into effect.

The CCPA appears to be only the beginning as consumers become more aware of their data rights and demand more of those entrusted with it. Privacy laws at both the state and federal level will continue to change and impact the way marketers reach consumers. As consumers become more empowered and informed, SRAX will continue to meet their high expectations.

• Located in the Netherlands, Truverra Europe is already established in select European markets, providing an early foothold for Supreme Cannabis
• Supreme Cannabis’ investment vehicle, Supreme Heights, provides European upstarts with access to capital, proven expertise and tools

The Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) (FRA: 53S1), a company dedicated to growing the world’s best cannabis and becoming a leader in the global industry, is creating inroads into Europe’s cannabis industry through its various subsidiaries. The company is taking an aggressive approach to secure its position in Europe’s rapidly increasing cannabis market, a market worth an estimated $318 million in 2018, which is expected to grow more than 400 percent through 2023 (http://ibn.fm/oMWSS). SPRWF subsidiary, Truverra and investment vehicle, Supreme Heights are primed and ready to take advantage of Europe’s rapidly growing cannabis market.

The recently acquired Truverra Inc., a global medicinal CBD brand, provides Supreme Cannabis with additional expansion opportunity in Europe. Truverra’s wholly owned European subsidiary, Truverra Europe, is located in the Netherlands and is already established in select European markets (http://ibn.fm/1VuEV). Truverra uses clean, pure CBD oil drawn from 100 percent organic, European hemp strains. The oil is then combined with natural ingredients to create the exceptional Truverra-branded products that consumers in the United Kingdom have come to expect.

Supreme Cannabis’ London-based investment platform, Supreme Heights (http://ibn.fm/IKsLp), is also penetrating the cannabis market in Europe. The launch of Supreme Heights provided promising European upstarts in the CBD market access to SPRWF’s leadership, comprehension of regulations, premium-product commercialization, marketing, and much more. Patrick Morton, co-founder of Cannabis Invest UK, was made CEO of Supreme Heights, providing the investment platform with his already established, expansive network of local and global cannabis and CBD companies and giving the new platform the jumpstart it needs in collecting potential investments.

In addition, Supreme’s dynamic brand activity has drawn investor attention. The company was recently the subject of an article by CFN Media Group detailing SPRWF’s savvy penetration of the European cannabis market. The article noted that Supreme Cannabis is building its cannabis portfolio at a “blistering pace” and described Europe’s “larger opportunity” for cannabis companies with its population of 513 million people (as compared to only 37 million in Canada). The article added that only five countries of the 28 country members of the European Union ban cannabis.

The CFN analysis (http://ibn.fm/ZMAxt) finds that “nothing speaks more clearly to the ability to scale than Supreme this month providing revenue guidance for the next year in the range of $150 million to $180 million.” The article adds that “the robust growth is owed to management’s ability to make prescient moves to stay in front of regulation changes in addition to operational excellence.” The launch of Supreme Heights provided the company with a gateway to investment in the European cannabis market.

• Earth Science Tech focuses on researching and developing inventive hemp extracts
• The company has three unique, wholly owned subsidiaries
• ETST recently reported a significant increase in revenue and gross profit

A science-based biotech company, Earth Science Tech Inc. (OTCQB: ETST) operates in the hemp-derived cannabinoids, nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, medical-devices, and research and development (R&D) fields. The company focuses on researching and developing unique hemp extracts and making those extracts accessible globally. The company offers the highest purity and quality, full-spectrum, high-grade hemp CBD (cannabidiol) oil on the market.

Recently, Earth Science Tech reported a 36 percent revenue gain as well as a 90 percent increase in gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 (http://ibn.fm/ff5C8). Full-spectrum cannabinoids are propelling the company’s consistent sales. Of note for investors is that Earth Science Tech earlier reported product sales totaled $770,635 for fiscal year ending March 31, 2019. This represents a 66.4 percent increase as compared to the $463,108 recorded for the same period in 2018. At the same time, the company maintained an impressive gross profit total of $295,013 and a gross margin of 38.2 percent in 2019.

The company’s significant revenue success is due in no small part to its diverse array of subsidiaries. Headquartered in Doral, Florida, Earth Science Tech has three wholly owned subsidiaries: Earth Science Pharmaceutical Inc., Cannabis Therapeutics Inc., and Canadian subsidiary Canna Inno Laboratories Inc.

Earth Science Pharmaceutical concentrates on becoming an international leader in the development of low-cost, non-invasive diagnostic tools, medical devices, testing processes, and vaccines for STIs (sexually transmitted infections and/or diseases). The company is dedicated to developing pioneering medical devices and vaccines that will improve health worldwide, particularly for women. ETST’s first medical device is MSN-2, a home kit designed for the detection of STIs from a self-obtained gynecological specimen.

Earth Science Tech’s Cannabis Therapeutics subsidiary is an emerging biotech company invested in research and development to explore and harness the medicinal power of cannabidiol. Cannabis Therapeutics is positioned to become a world leader in cannabinoid R&D for a wide-ranging line of cannabinoid-based pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and other product solutions. The company’s initial projects are focused on developing treatments for breast and ovarian cancers.

The Canna Inno Laboratories subsidiary, a strategic Montreal-based company, is giving Earth Science Tech a foothold in Quebec. Canna Inno allows ETST access to Government of Canada funding, the first of which has recently been approved. This subsidiary will also enable the advancement of further product via grants offered to pharmaceutical innovators (http://ibn.fm/6xpLp).

Earth Science Tech’s high-grade, CBD-rich hemp oil is formulated using a broad array of innovative technologies. The process includes a super-critical extraction process (CO2), isolation and micron filtration. Super-critical extraction is a gentle approach and is the key method in the extraction of the company’s CBD (http://ibn.fm/MC36b).

• The program focuses on the pursuit of reduced risk oral nicotine products that make use of Lexaria’s patented DehydraTECH drug delivery platform
• DehydraTECH has been studied extensively and both human/animal trials confirm its ability to enhance active ingredient absorption in digestible products
• The current research could contribute to the development of oral nicotine products that would usher in a new era of reduced-risk nicotine use

Global innovator in drug delivery platforms Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) provided an extensive update on advances in its research and development program with Altria Ventures Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Altria Group, Inc (NYSE: MO). The collaboration focuses on the pursuit of reduced risk oral nicotine consumer products using the Lexaria-patented DehydraTECH technology.

Most of the work within the first phase of the collaborative project has either been completed or is significantly underway. Only one aspect of the project remains to commence imminently, according to a company press release issued on October 8, 2019 (http://ibn.fm/Czxkv).

The successful completion of the first phase of the program will be the first step in developing viable products with Lexaria’s DehydraTECH drug delivery platform. Under the terms and conditions of the agreement, Lexaria’s majority owned subsidiary Lexaria Nicotine LLC will see royalties being paid from any sold oral nicotine products, in the event of Altria deciding to use the technology in the U.S. or overseas.

Due to the advances in the program, the two partners have been thoroughly studying the process of oral nicotine administration. Lexaria Bioscience and Lexaria Nicotine CEO Chris Bunka said, “Lexaria strongly believes that, given the choice, many of the world’s one billion smokers would elect to experience their nicotine in a manner that does not rely on either smoking or vaping, and Lexaria can help enable these alternatives.”

Lexaria’s philosophy is that the oral administration of nicotine can provide a reduced-risk access to the substance, providing better health outcomes than standard combustible cigarettes.

The DehydraTECH technology is a vital component for product development. Human and animal clinical studies have demonstrated DehydraTECH’s ability to enhance bio-absorption and bioavailability of active compounds in oral administration products.

The technology has a wide scope of additional applications. DehydraTECH can improve taste, remove odor and bring down the time to onset in the case of delivering active ingredients within generally recognized as safe (GRAS) food ingredients. Because of its superior performance characteristics, the technology is also being used by the CBD industry. Research suggested that CBD absorption into human intestinal cells increased by 499 percent through the utilization of the DehydraTECH technology.

Similar results were observed in previous animal studies, suggesting a massive increase in absorption (811 percent) when comparison was made with a control group.

Lexaria has also completed several phases of collaborative study with the National Research Council in Canada (http://ibn.fm/UC2eZ). Several work programs were designed to evaluate and characterized the DehydraTECH technology utilizing nuclear magnetic resonance and other advanced methods of study such as DLS and Zeta Potential analysis.

Lexaria Bioscience is a global innovator in drug delivery platforms. It operates a licensed in-house research laboratory and the company also holds an impressive portfolio of 16 patents granted and over 60 patents pending.
