Date:1/14/2008

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Kibow Biotech, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has been granted an International Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) patent from Australia, China and India. The approved patent, "Prebiotic and Probiotic Compositions and their Method of use for Gut-based Therapy," protects the composition and method behind the Company's oral probiotic product formulation (Kibow Biotics(R)) which may significantly reduce concentrations of several nitrogenous waste metabolites that accumulate in renal deficiency. The serial numbers for this patent are: 20022342641 (Australia), ZL 02810078.6 (China) and 1029/MUMNP/2003, 205478 (India). Kibow Biotech has an identical PCT patent pending in Canada, the European Union, Japan, and South Korea.

In addition, the term "Enteric Dialysis(TM)" has been recognized as a registered service trademark by the patent and trademark authority of the Government of India. "Enteric Dialysis(TM)" designates the technology behind the Company's proprietary probiotic product formulation which has the ability to eliminate uremic nitrogenous waste metabolites via the gut route.

Kibow Biotech has another PCT application, "Compositions and Methods for Augmenting Kidney Function," under national review in all of the aforementioned countries except Australia where this patent has also been approved (#2002255717).

Dr. Natarajan Ranganathan, VP (R&D) and interim CEO, stated, "In addition to our PCT patents, Kibow has already obtained three US patents, with four more additional patents under examination process. The rapidly expanding intellectual property portfolio for our unique 'Enteric Dialysis(TM)' platform technology has added immense potential to our company products for kidney failure applications worldwide."
