(CSE:LNB) (OTCQB:LXGTF) (the “Company” or “Lexington”), a development-stage medical device company, is pleased to advise that its HeartSentry 1st generation product has successfully passed all requisite bench tests in preparation for upcoming clinical trials and the units have been formally released and delivered to Diablo Clinical Research. \n The HeartSentry product presents a new approach to non-invasive cardiovascular health diagnostics through the measurement and monitoring of a patient’s vascular endothelium, the vital innermost lining of the cardiovascular system. This 1st generation product is the result of over 15 years of research at Lawrence Berkeley National Labs, and under the auspices of Lexington Biosciences is at a late-stage of preparedness for human clinical trials to commence shortly in the San Francisco Bay Area. The initial production run units are all slated for the upcoming trials, and with the conclusion of bench testing this week they have been shipped to the investigative clinic. Months of bench tests validated software integrity in combination with a series of mechanical and electrical inspections aimed at ensuring safe operation within a statistically quantifiable operating environment designed to deliver measurably consistent results.     Lexington’s President Eric Willis comments, “The team has worked diligently over the past several months to ensure the product is ready for human trials. As of today, we have signed off on all operational aspects of the device, including the documentation for operation and data interpretation. The product has been transferred to the investigative team and we have completed the device and study training with the researchers. We look forward to enrolling the first patients very soon and are excited to have our product in the hands of clinical professionals who we are certain will do a very thorough job of examining HeartSentry’s efficacy.
