Date:4/15/2008

WALTHAM, Mass., April 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Arbios Systems, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: ABOS) today announced that it has commenced the marketing authorization process in the European Union to pursue CE Marking the SEPET(TM) Liver Assist Device. The Company has engaged the British Standards Institute (BSI), one of the leading notified bodies in Europe, to assist the Company in its effort to obtain a CE Mark for SEPET, which is a sterile, disposable cartridge with proprietary membrane permeability characteristics for use in treating patients with chronic liver failure. CE Marking indicates that the product complies with the essential requirements of the relevant European health, safety and environmental protection legislation and allows sale of the product within the European Union (28 countries) and the European Free Trade Association (3 countries).

"We are pleased to announce this arrangement with BSI, and look forward to advancing our market approval and product acceptance strategy for SEPET in Europe," commented Shawn Cain, President and Chief Executive Officer of Arbios. "Importantly, based on guidance from BSI, we will seek approval of SEPET using data from our recently completed feasibility trial. If no additional clinical data are necessary, and if we meet all the requirements for CE Marking, we believe that our CE Mark filing for SEPET will be completed by the beginning of 2009. We are also seeking a European distribution, marketing, and sales partner to assist us in introducing SEPET into the European market," Mr. Cain added.
