As recently as two weeks ago, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius launched a global effort to “prevent, detect and respond to infectious disease threats where they start”. (Global Health Security Agenda). Infectious disease epidemics originate largely in developing countries. The United States is susceptible to infectious disease transmission by virtue of the increased mobility and interaction of global populations. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) serves as a potent reminder. The United States occupies a lead position as a “first responder” to humanitarian crises throughout the world, including infectious disease outbreaks. The ability to diagnose a patient quickly and accurately is critical to containing an outbreak. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 4 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Federal Public Health Mandate – Domestic Healthcare The incidence of opportunistic, secondary infection in primary care facilities is increasing at an alarming rate. The costs in patient morbidity and treatment are straining the national healthcare system. A report published in the Journal of Emerging Infectious Diseases, found a 90% increase in reports of MRSA infections among U.S. hospital outpatient admissions from 1999-2006. A 2009 Center for Disease Control study review examining the costs of healthcare associated infections in hospitals estimated the excess hospital cost of healthcare associated infections in the US to be between 28 and 45 billion dollars annually. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 5 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Federal Public Health Mandate – National Security In addition to existing and potential infectious disease outbreaks attributable to spontaneous environmental origin, it is incumbent upon the United States to maintain a robust, comprehensive prophylaxis and agile emergency response strategy to combat the possibility of a biological attack. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 6 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Federal Public Health Mandate – Improved Patient Care In each scenario “time to diagnosis” is critical. Rapid diagnosis facilitates: Identification and quarantine of infected patients Identification of the infectious agent/pathogen Administration of the appropriate treatment regimen Reduction in duration of symptoms and improved prognosis Reduction in patient length of stay Faster diagnosis, prompt and appropriate medical treatment and reduced duration of hospital stay improve patient quality of life, reduce health care expense and facilitate increased access to immediate care facilities. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 7 MOSAIC 545 PATHOGEN IDENTIFICATION 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 8 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Current “State of the Art” – Blood Culture for pathogen identification 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 9 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Time is Critical When a patient presents with an infection during emergency or intensive care, blood culture can be a race against time. The typical process of pathogen identification in blood takes at least 24 hours. Current methods include culture techniques using agar plates and culture mediums (c. early 1900s) prolonging the process of identification. Culture methods are dependent on producing additional infectious pathogen. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 10 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Introducing Mosaic 545™ Real-time positive pathogen identification (< 10 minutes) Sterile, self-contained cartridge Simple on-site use model Multiple samples run simultaneously No culturing of infectious pathogens MOSAIC 545™ utilizes highly conserved species specific oligomer hybridization of small RNA sequences. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 11 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Mosaic 545™ Components Sterile, self-contained pathogen identification cartridge Multi-slot cartridge reader Signal processing software Pathogen Identification Cartridge Cartridge Reader Signal Processing Software Pathogen Identification Cartridge Model: _______ Lot # _________ Specimen ID: 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 12 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Identification Cartridge Pathogen Identification Cartridge Model: _______ Lot # _________ Specimen ID: The Pathogen Identification cartridge is the heart of the Mosaic 545.

At this point, the specimen is intact, and no antibody binding has occurred. The Mosaic 545 monitors the impedance across each sensor continuously in real-time, detecting and identifying changes resulting from antibody-pathogen binding. Localized sensor fluorescence is measured, confirming binding interaction at the sensor. 2/26/2014 © 2014 Immunotrex Biologics 34 Mosaic 545™ Pathogen Diagnostic Technology Platform Bimodal Sensor Assembly Impedance Sensor Fluorescence Sensor mAb-coated RGO Targeted rRNA binding increases electrical impedance through mAb-coated reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sensor.
