Derma Sciences Announces Numerous Clinical Presentations on MEDIHONEY(TM) Wound & Burn Dressings at Upcoming WUWHS Conference
Date:6/2/2008

Positive clinical outcomes showcased in poster presentations and satellite

symposium

PRINCETON, N.J., June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Derma Sciences, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: DSCI), a provider of advanced wound care products, announced today that eleven clinical posters detailing the clinical usage of its newly released MEDIHONEY(TM) Wound & Burn Dressings with Active Leptospermum Honey will be presented at the upcoming 3rd World Union of Wound Healing Societies (WUWHS) conference. This conference, being held in Toronto on June 5-9, takes place every four years and brings together the global thought leaders on advancements in wound care. Additionally, the company has announced that a one-hour satellite symposium will discuss the benefits of Active Leptospermum Honey and its role in advanced wound care.

Chairman and CEO Ed Quilty said, "The clinical outcomes evidence generated thus far for MEDIHONEY since the product's launch late last year has been exceptional. It is now becoming clear that the dressings are beginning to serve an important role as clinicians' first choice for wounds that have not progressed with standard care, making up roughly 50% of all chronic wounds. The eleven posters being presented at the WUWHS showcase the variety of wound types being treated successfully with MEDIHONEY. This evidence, combined with the satellite symposium, should have great impact on the conference attendees, and will contribute to the ramp up of global sales of the product."

The abstracts include the following:

1. "Active Leptospermum Honey Impregnated Calcium Alginate Dressing

Treatment Options for Medically Compromised Patients", Elizabeth Bodie

Gross, RN, NP, WCC.

2. "Wound Healing Experiences using a Honey Based Product", Mary Brennan,

RN, MBA, CWON, Long Island Jewish Medical Center.

3. "Active Leptospermum Honey Impregnated Calcium Alginate Wound
