• In excess of $300,000 of bids submitted for design/construct/install of service equipment and systems to expand the use of CupriDyne Clean in client operations; and

Clyra Medical

• While we face delay in our first application for pre-market clearance filed with the FDA under Section 510(k), we have concluded design on a second product and are finalizing its 510(k) application;
• While we remain confident that we will ultimately receive premarket clearance for our products, we can make no assurance or prediction as to success of Clyra’s efforts, and must wait patiently for the process with the FDA to conclude.

Advanced Oxidation System (AOS):

• $235,000 Canadian grant awarded from the Canadian Government to fund the first on-site AOS pilot project, in the poultry industry, planned for 2018, the purpose of which is to lay the foundation for commercialization of the AOS; and

Dennis P. Calvert, President of BioLargo, commented, “We are highly focused on executing our plan to grow sales and infrastructure for Odor-No-More, excited to see our engineering division bidding on significant projects, remain patient with the FDA at Clyra, and are looking forward to our pilot project for the AOS in Canada."
