Quality Stocks Daily Newsletter (12/31/08)

Coates International Ltd. (COTE) Today, SmallCap Voice reported on Coates International Ltd. (COTE), Wall Street Corner did earlier, and today we highlight the Company as well here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

Coates International Ltd. is an enterprise who has recently completed development of their patented spherical rotary valve CSRV Industrial Internal Combustion Engine. They developed this over a period of more than six years and other CSRV applications over ten years. Mr. George J. Coates, President, and Chairman of the Board of Coates developed this technology. He has secured many U. S. patents and foreign patents for innovations related to the spherical rotary valve internal combustion engine. Coates International Ltd. trades on NASDAQ's OTCBB. They have their headquarters in Wall, New Jersey.

The Company's Coates Spherical Rotary Valve System (CSRV) changes the means of delivering the air and fuel mixture to the firing chamber of an internal combustion engine and of expelling the exhaust produced when the mixture ignites. The "Coates" system uses spherical valves, which rotate, in a cavity formed between a two-piece cylinder head. The valves include channels, which connect to the intake and exhaust passages. Their technology is currently adapted to applications such as industrial generators powered by engines incorporating the CSRV technology and designed to run on flare-off gas from oil wells, landfill gas, and raw natural gas. Coates is currently engaged in planning for production and rollout of these engines.

The Company sees the major advantages of the CSRV design as being lower hydrocarbon and oxides of nitrogen emission, elimination of oil from engine heads, and reduced lubrication and maintenance requirements. They see the potential for reduced manufacturing costs, and it being adaptable to multiple fuel types such as gasoline and natural gas. The Coates system's design also provides the flexibility to retrofit the CSRV system to internal combustion engines of all sizes. Coates is producing their model C86GE natural gas engine and the C86GG natural gas generator system, both based on CSRV technology. They have also completed several engine prototypes equipped with CSRV for automobiles and motorcycles.

This year, the Coates Spherical Rotary Valve (CSRV) Home Generator received configuration to operate on propane. It can power with any combustible engine fuel, including Hydrogen. The CSRV Electric Power Generator is a synchronous system that only produces the amount of electric power that is being used or required at any given time, from 1 Kw up to 35 Kws. It incorporates a CSRV In Line 4 Cylinder Power Unit. Coates believes that because of the CSRV Home Generator's ability to supply only the power required, and its adaptability to operate on ultra low emissions alternative fuels, and low consumption of fuels, that their new product will have significant demand in the marketplace.

Today, Coates announced that they began limited production of their CSRV Natural Gas (CNG/LNG) Industrial Electric Power Generators to begin filling orders. This is for Well To Wire Energy, Inc. of Canada . A number of CSRV power units could ship to Well To Wire Energy by the end of the first quarter of 2009. Company management believes that if they achieve their short-term goal with limited production of the CSRV Power Generators next quarter, it will represent a major milestone in their mission to ramp up production, generate positive working capital, and become profitable. Well To Wire Energy has paid non-refundable payments totaling approximately $3,313,000 to Coates to date.

Coates International Ltd. (COTE) closed the day's trading at $0.40, which was up $0.01 or 2.56 percent. Volume for the stock was 18,650 for a 3-month average volume of 62,654.70.

VeriChip Corporation (CHIP)

CEO Cast and Sizzle Stocks reported recently on VeriChip Corporation (CHIP), and today we highlight the Company here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

VeriChip Corporation markets their VeriMed™ Health Link System for identifying, quickly and accurately, people who arrive in an emergency room and are unable to communicate. This system uses the first human-implantable passive radio-frequency identification (RFID) microchip, cleared for medical use in October 2004 by the United States Food and Drug Administration. Founded in 2001, VeriChip Corporation trades on the NASDAQ. They have their corporate headquarters in Delray Beach , Florida .

VeriChip provides innovative and advanced security solutions that identify, locate, and protect people, their assets, and their environments.

Their systems are in more than 4,000 locations globally. These are in healthcare, security, industrial, and government markets. They market their products through their direct sales force and distributors. VeriChip customers include hospitals, long-term care facilities, and healthcare professionals and individual patients.

VeriChip Corporation and their development partner RECEPTORS LLC announced in November that they achieved a significant milestone toward the development of an in vivo glucose-sensing RFID microchip. This self-contained, implantable bio-sensing device will have the ability to measure glucose levels in the human body through an external scanner. This will eliminate the need for diabetics to prick their fingers multiple times per day.

Scott R. Silverman, Chairman of VeriChip, said, "We are not only focused on current opportunities for patient identification within our VeriMed Health Link business, but also on the future applications of RFID in healthcare. The glucose sensor is a promising example, combining a unique application of the technology and an extremely valuable market. While there is much more to do, development of the binding environment was a big step towards reaching that future."

Biopure Corporation (BPUR)

Today, HotOTC.com and Stock Stars reported on Biopure Corporation (BPUR), and we are highlighting the Company as well, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

Biopure Corporation develops, manufactures and markets pharmaceuticals called oxygen therapeutics. These pharmaceuticals receive administration intravenously to deliver oxygen to the body's tissues. Biopure Corporation trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market and they have their corporate headquarters in Cambridge , Massachusetts .

On November 21, 2008, the Company announced that they terminated most of their work force for financial reasons. They are now using their limited resources to develop Hemopure® and are supporting the U.S. Navy's government-funded efforts to develop a potential out-of-hospital trauma indication. Using the preclinical and clinical information they have involving anemia, Biopure is beginning development for use of Hemopure® in anemic cancer patients and end-of-life patients. The Company's Hemopure® [hemoglobin glutamer - 250 (bovine)], or HBOC-201, is approved for sale in South Africa. This product is for the treatment of surgical patients who are acutely anemic. A marketing authorization application for Hemopure® is pending in the United Kingdom . This is for a surgery indication.

Stabilized hemoglobin molecules in Hemopure® can hold the same amount of oxygen as hemoglobin molecules in red blood cells, as well as release oxygen more readily than red blood cells. Data from preclinical studies suggest that introducing Hemopure into the bloodstream may help red blood cells to offload more oxygen to the tissues than they normally would.

Biopure's veterinary product Oxyglobin® [hemoglobin glutamer - 200 (bovine)], or HBOC-301, is indicated for the treatment of anemia in dogs. Biopure has sold more than 200,000 units of Oxyglobin since its launch. It is the only oxygen therapeutic approved for marketing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Commission.

On December 17, Biopure Corporation announced that they submitted to the Food and Drug Administration an investigational new drug (IND) application to conduct a pilot phase 2 clinical trial of their Hemopure® [hemoglobin glutamer - 250 (bovine)]. Hemopure® would be studied for use in the treatment of life-threatening anemia secondary to induction chemotherapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia who refuse red blood cell transfusion.

Biopure Corporation (BPUR) closed Tuesday's session at $0.2181 up $0.0931 or 74.48 percent. Volume was 6,120,079 significantly higher than the 3-month average volume of 203,708.
