and trademarks because it is directed at important features of our Rapid Drug Screen drug test kit and thus provides even more protection for our unique, single-step testing products," commented ABMC Chairman and CEO Stan Cipkowski.

The utility patent covers the test kit in which the testing card is inserted through a security-sealed slit in the lid of the sample cup. This distinguishes ABMC's test from other products on the market that require the test administrator to add reagents, use a pipette to transfer the urine sample or mix, tilt, or stir the mixture.

Management explained that its newly patented utility feature confirms the Rapid Drug Screen as the safest on-site drug test commercially available, since competitive products introduce the possibility for exposure of the test administrator to the urine specimen.

"With our new utility patent, we are in an even better position to address and deal with copycat products," added Cipkowski. "This strengthens our existing patent infringement and trademark dilution cases, and enables us to pursue firms that are infringing upon our utility patent. Ultimately, eliminating infringement will strengthen our industry presence and allow ABMC to capitalize upon its competitive testing advantages."

The Rapid Drug Screen single-step tests for substances of abuse generate results in five minutes and are unrivaled for ease of use. The most secure and flexible total testing system on the market, ABMC's on-site tests simultaneously screen for the presence or absence of up to nine illicit drugs.

DCH Technology, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board/DCHT -- CS 6/99) had its Form 10SB accepted by the SEC, making it a fully reporting company. DCHT has been in the news. Steve Lawrence in The Associated Press wrote 10/28/99:

California's anti-smog chief is predicting that clean-running motor vehicles powered by fuel cells will play a significant role in efforts to clean up California's skies. "I feel very optimistic," Air Resources Board chairman Alan Lloyd said Wednesday after speaking at a conference on fuel cell technology. Fuel cells, developed for use in space craft, produce electricity through a chemical reaction involving hydrogen and oxygen that provides power along with little or no pollution.

Some supporters see fuel-cell vehicles as a more driver-friendly alternative to gasoline-powered autos than battery-run electric cars, which have limited driving ranges between rechargings. Instead of taking hours to recharge, fuel-cell cars could fill up with hydrogen or a hydrogen-producing fuel at a service station. "I think fuel cells will play a significant part of the solution, but they are not going to be the complete solution. We also see advances in other technologies," Lloyd said, mentioning improvements in batteries.

There have been several recent signs that automakers are getting ready to market fuel-cell vehicles. Gov. Gray Davis announced last April that a consortium that includes Ford, DaimlerChrysler and three major oil companies would road-test up to 50 fuel-cell cars and 20 buses on California roads over the next few years. Volkswagen and Honda joined the group earlier this month. Ford and DaimlerChrysler said at the time the tests were announced that they planned to put fuel-cell-powered vehicles on the market by 2004.

Toyota Motor Corp. hopes to beat that date. The Japanese auto maker announced in June that it plans to mass-produce fuel-cell vehicles in 2003. And earlier this month, Nippon Mitsubishi Oil Corp. said it had agreed to conduct research and develop fuel-cell vehicles with the Japanese subsidiary of DaimlerChrysler. Lloyd said the auto companies "are not doing this on a whim. They see markets."

One key factor that may be encouraging the companies is a state regulation requiring that 10% of the new cars sold in California starting in 2003 have to emit little or no pollution. Glen Rambach, a research engineer at the Desert Research Institute in Reno, was even more optimistic about the potential of fuel cells, predicting a "decade of the fuel cell." "Sit tight, buckle up and hang on," he told conference participants.

"I think it's going to be one heck of a ride over the next 10 years." But another conference speaker, former Pennsylvania Congressman Robert Walker, said fuel-cell advocates have to convince the public, government policy-makers and potential investors that fuel cells are a ready technology. He suggested asking a celebrity to take a fuel-cell car on a 500-mile drive, taking reporters on a cross-country trip in a fuel-cell bus, lighting up part of the Las Vegas Strip with fuel cells, or convincing Disney World to include a fuel-cell-powered house in its attractions.

Such tactics will tell the public "something is happening that they should pay attention to," he said. "When the public pays attention to it, policy makers pay attention to it. When policy makers pay attention to it, Wall Street pays attention. The moment this becomes the next generation of high-tech investment I think it will take off like gangbusters," he said.
