TALENT TESTING SERVICE (TTS) IMPLEMENTS A “SIGN AND SCAN” FEATURE IMPROVING TRACKING INBOUND SAMPLE SHIPMENTS VISIBILITY

Talent Testing Service (TTS) has implemented a “Sign and Scan” feature for all Talents who visit their Associated Draw Facilities (ADF) across the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada. With a simple scan of the QR code, using a smart phone camera or applicable QR Code app, the Talent automatically advises TTS that they have been to the specific ADF, that their samples have been collected, and automatically advises FedEx for a pickup.

This QR Code is found next to the signature line on page 3 of the paperwork sent to the ADF. Once the ADF has completed the paperwork, all the Talent has to do is Sign and Scan!

“A common issue has always been the “blind spot” problem: TTS not knowing when a talent visited an ADF facility up to the point where the sample has been picked up by the Courier service. By simply scanning the QR code, TTS will have a better insight into tracking of the inbound shipment of samples originating at its Associated Drawing Facilities (ADF)”, said Sixto Pacheco, President and CEO of Talent Testing Service. “The addition of this tracking feature to our toolbox will help the TTS team in identifying and resolving shipping problems at an earlier stage”, Pacheco continued.

TTS ANNOUNCES EXPANSION INTO EUROPE

Talent Testing Service (TTS) has been at the forefront in providing best-in-class testing services since 2005 in order to achieve one primary mission – the safety of the Adult Performers. Since the AVN Awards held in January of 2019, TTS representatives have been traveling to Europe meeting with counterparts, colleagues and various industry leaders in order to achieve several goals. These include:

• Providing clearance status through the TTS online portal system
• Pairing current testing protocols and clearance algorithms
• Offering performers the most accurate and best possible testing services available at a fair and competitive price
• Providing the adult community with opportune and effective flow of information when health emergencies occur

“We are proud to say that these meetings have been very successful. The HIV-1 PCR test has been implemented and is being performed every 14 days” said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. “We are slowly and cautiously, through a phased approach, pairing the systems. Our ultimate goal is to have all talent feel comfortable that when tested, they receive the best in class testing services and more importantly – the talents health is protected”.

TTS expects that once the full implementation is completed, the TTS clearances will apply to all talent served on both sides of the Atlantic. Full implementation is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2019.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE (TTS) AND THE MEDICAL HISTORY QUESTIONNAIRE (MHQ)

In early February, TTS listened to the concerns of the industry and added the 4th generation HIV Ag/Ab assay to the Gold Standard Panel as a standard test. The inclusion of this test into the GS Panel prompted a host of internal changes at TTS. These changes included, but were not limited to, re-addressing testing algorithms, new clearance / non-clearance limitations and a revamping of the Medical Health Questionnaire (MHQ).

"As a facility that caters to the specific needs of the Adult Industry, our MHQ helps us determine what specific health problems our program participants may be exposed and are at increased risk to" said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "For close to 15 years, TTS has always complied with, federal, state and local laws and regulations, including but not limited to HIPAA regulations. We have never sold, rented, leased or given away any information regarding any of our patients, Talents and/or Donor/Participants (D/Ps) - and never will." Pacheco continued.

Pacheco added that "We will again revise the MHQ and starting on Monday April1st, Talents can re-do their MHQ and select "Decline to Answer" for those questions they feel uncomfortable answering or deem inappropriate".

TTS ENHANCES THE GOLD STANDARD PANEL TO ADDRESS INDUSTRY CONCERNS

As a primary stakeholder in the protection of the health of Adult Performers in the Industry, Talent Testing Service (TTS) has been at the forefront in providing best-in-class testing services since 2005. We have been able to provide these services primarily due to the fact of being highly involved in the developmental process of the ever evolving science of infectious disease testing with our diagnostic and molecular testing partners.

At this moment our data disputes the recent statements circulating, in the Adult Industry, regarding "Undetectable=Untransmittable" since this cannot be proven at a 100% accuracy. We would rephrase this as "Undetectable = Extremely Low Probability of Transmission". Due to this extremely low probability of transmission, however minute, it is still a risk and we should all err on the side of caution.

Our Quality Assurance (QA) program mandates that we randomly verify through different peer programs the accuracy and specificity of the assays to make sure they are working as expected. In addition to this, our QA program also takes into consideration external factors that may affect the veracity and integrity of the testing program we have in place. As a whole, the QA program is an ever evolving process striving to achieve one goal - the safety of Adult Performers.

After listening to the Industry's concerns, "Talent Testing Services will not only continue to participate in the peer program described above, but the Gold Standard Panel (GSP) will be enhanced to include the Genetic Systems HIV-1/HIV-2 Plus O EIA. This is an FDA cleared test to detect antibodies against HIV-1, HIV-2 and Group O. This test is being added to the GSP at no additional cost," said Mr. Sixto Pacheco, President and CEO of Talent Testing Service.

"These changes come after consultations with Talents, Agents and Production companies throughout the industry" said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "TTS prides itself on being at the forefront of industry leading testing protocols. The new GSP test is in line with our commitment to continuously improve the available safeguards directed at the health of the Talent and the industry as a whole" Pacheco continued.
At this moment we recommend that the Free Speech Coalition direct their Licensed Healthcare Providers to implement the same immediately.

FAKE TTS RESULTS IN THE INDUSTRY - AND HOW TO SPOT A FAKE TTS RESULT

Yesterday, an alert Producer in the Los Angeles area spotted a fake Talent Testing Service Inc. (TTS) paper result. According to Sixto Pacheco, President of TTS, this is the second time this year that someone tries to con the industry with a fake Talent Testing result. In both instances the person was caught and banned from the TTS testing system.

TTS would like to remind Talents, Agents and Producers that we have two key validation features in printed and web based Talent test result. that everyone can use:

QR CODES: Implemented on December 2011

We implemented QR Code Technology to protect the validity of all printed and web based results. All results now have a QRCode 2 Square below the results section of the report that when used in conjunction with any smart phone QR Code scanning software (such as ScanLife by Scanbuy, Inc. or Scan by QR Code City, LLC) it will show if the results are authentic and valid.

Once the barcode has been scanned, the browser will direct you to the TTS Mobile page that shows the Talent Id#, Date of Birth (DOB), Test Expiration Date (based on a 30-day testing cycle), and the actual test results. This technology will permit any user viewing an actual paper result to verify its authenticity on-demand.

AUTHENTICATION CODES:

If you don't have access to software to read the QR Code, we provide an Authentication Code in each test performed. The Authentication Code for each test is found on the far right of each test result.

To use the code, simply visit www.talenttestingservice.com, where you will find a big tab labeled Test Authentication. Clicking on it will show you a new page where you enter the authentication code and a security code and results will be displayed and validated.

TTS has always been ahead of the curve in implementing leading edge technology and innovation. In addition to the QR Code and mobile access features, Producers/Agents as well as Talents are provided with a personal online dashboard with access to historical and most up-to-date testing information. Talents can also set up automatic reminders for next test dates.

TTS BEGINS BETA TESTING OF ITS TTS HEALTHWATCH (TTSHW) PROGRAM

Talent Testing Service, Inc. (TTS) has launched live beta testing of its TTS HealthWatch (TTShw) program.

At a Glance

TTS HealthWatch (TTShw), is a database of events with performers compiled by producers, agents and talents themselves indicating who performed with whom. By entering this information in the database, a generational testing tree can be produced within seconds thus permitting a rapid response during an industry moratorium when callbacks are initiated. The system is open to current participating and non-participating TTS customers….the system is for the benefit of all industry stakeholders.

Triple Tier Check System

TTShw has been built to have a system of checks and balances. Production information received from producers, agents and talents will permit the generational tree created to be more robust avoiding any splintering in the identification and testing of possible infected cases.

Beta Testing Sites and Implementation Process

Currently TTShw is being tested at select production companies. Once this initial testing is completed and feedback has been obtained and implemented, the process will then move on to agents and talents. Obtaining feedback from these three stakeholders during this process is as important as the system itself. It is expected that by the end of the first quarter of 2014, the system will be up and operational at a national level. Additional production companies that would also like to participate in the beta testing phase should contact TTS via info@talenttestingservice.com.

"2013 was the year of moratoriums for the adult industry." said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "We believe that the industry as a whole can manage these shutdowns swiftly and efficiently with the use of the TTShw program. At this time we have begun beta testing at select Production Companies obtaining initial feedback in order to enhance its features before implementing it at a national level." Pacheco continued.

TTS ANNOUNCES THE INTRODUCTION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE GOLD STANDARD PANEL, IMPROVED TEST RESULTS DELIVERY TIMES AND CAUTIONS ON THE CLEARANCE OF TALENTS IN THE FSC/APHSS/PASS SYSTEM

GSP Testing Panel

On September 1st, 2013 Talent Testing Service, Inc. (TTS) will be introduce a new comprehensive testing protocol called the "Gold Standard Panel" (GSP). This GSP will replace both the Basic and Full Panels currently offered by consolidating the latest testing methodologies into one comprehensive product and furthermore strengthen Primary and Secondary testing algorithms for the detection of STD's in the adult industry.

The GSP will be comprised of the following EIGHT tests:

1. HIV-1 NAT
2. HBsAg
3. Anti-HCV
4. Chlamydia
5. Gonorrhea
6. Trichomonas Vaginalis AND
7. Two Syphilis tests:
o RPR
o TREP-SURE EIA - Treponema pallidum Antibody, IgG by ELISA

Please note that all molecular tests are performed based on single test / single talent testing protocols. Pooling of material is not a standard practice at TTS.

Improved Test Results Delivery Times

TTS will also be providing its clients test results TWICE a day: at 1:00pm EST/10:00am PST and 6:00pm EST/3:00pm PST, Monday through Friday. If you test at our LA office on Monday by 5:00pm PST, your results will be ready by 10:00am PST the next day.

"These changes come after consultations with Talents, Agents and Production companies throughout the industry." said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "TTS prides itself at being at the forefront of industry leading testing protocols. The GSP and additional results availability times are in line with our commitment to continuously improve the available safeguards directed at the health of the Talent and the industry as a whole" Pacheco continued.

Clearance Issues on FSC/APHSS/PASS System

TTS believes there is a testing loophole in the FSC/APHSS/PASS Clearance database. "As we have previously stated to FSC/APHSS/PASS, we have strongly recommended that the facility issuing a Non-Clearance to a talent into system must also be responsible for issuing the follow up clearance." Pacheco said. "At this time, some talents that are not cleared by TTS, due to more rigorous testing protocols in place, shop around for a less stringent panel in order to obtain a follow-up clearance." Pacheco continued. "This simple change in policy will have an enormous positive impact on the clearance system".

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. (TTS) ANNOUNCES “TTS HEALTH SCREENING MONTH"

With the safeguard of the Talents and the Industry in mind, Talent Testing Service, Inc. (TTS) will start screening for Hepatitis B (HBV) and Hepatitis C (HCV) on ALL Basic Panel Tests effective June 7th, 2013. The Full Panel Test price will change to $120.00 and applies for all samples collected at our Talent Testing facilities in Northridge, CA, Miami, FL and all of our 300 Draw Stations around the country. The Health Screening will end on July 7th, 2013.

"Today we are implementing what we call TTS Industry Screening Month." said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "We hope that everyone, from established Talents to new comers to the industry, take advantage of this additional screening at no extra cost. This month long event will also reset the industry health statistics giving us a clean slate for the second half of the year." Pacheco continued.

According to the CDC and American Cancer Society, viral hepatitis is a leading infectious cause of death in the U.S. The majority of liver cancers in the world are attributable to chronic infections of HBV and/or HCV. Primary prevention of HBV infection includes vaccination. HCV infection is potentially preventable through public health measures, including screenings.

As with the addition of Syphilis testing on the Basic Panel test, the Health Screening initiative supports TTS's ongoing commitment to offer the most advanced and complete infectious testing for the adult industry.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. RESPONDS TO RECENT NEWS OF GONORRHEA (GC) H041 STRAIN

Talent Testing Services, Inc. (TTS) announced today that its current testing methodologies for Gonorrhea (GC) detect the new strain referenced to as "H041".

"Our testing methodologies in place have been developed and cleared to detect these emerging strains." said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "The APTIMA Combo 2 assay for GC and CT targets the ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Antibiotic resistance in GC occurs due to mutations in genes other than those that express rRNA. Because we target the rRNA for detection of GC, which is not affected by the mutations, the APTIMA Combo 2 assay will detect the drug resistant strains of GC." Pacheco continued.

TTS is at the forefront of testing methodologies due to its strategic partnerships with diagnostic manufacturers. These partnerships permit TTS to work proactively to introduce and maintain the most advanced testing methodologies and provide these to the adult industry.

The forward thinking company has long offered testing for HIV RNA by PCR Methodology, which detects the presence of the virus earlier than all other tests. Testing for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Syphilis and others is also available.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. TO CONTINUE TESTING WITH TREPSURE™ AS PART OF ITS BASIC PANEL

Talent Testing Services, Inc. (TTS) announced today that its testing policy for syphilis, under its current basic panel, will continue to include the TrepSure™ EIA test. This test will be used in conjunction with RPR and will continue to be an integral part of its basic clinical panel including the molecular tests for HIV, Chlamydia and Gonorrhea.

"The TrepSure™ EIA test offers an additional protection of our talent population as an initial indicator for syphilis. Used in conjunction with the RPR test plus patient history, TrepSure™ indicates past infections and is an effective indicator of acute syphilis infection." said Sixto Pacheco, President & CEO of TTS. "Talent Testing Service will continue to develop comprehensive test programs that not only protect the health of the talent but also address our industry's concerns." Pacheco continued.

TTS will continue to provide cleared status information to the APHSS database based on the existing clearance algorithm currently in place.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. (TTS) SYPHILIS TESTING RECOMMENDATION TO INDUSTRY

Miami, FL August 31, 2012 - Talent Testing Services, Inc. (TTS) has been monitoring the developments regarding the recent Syphilis outbreak in the industry. As part of our ongoing approach to offer the best and most sensitive assays in the industry, our policy has always been to provide "Whole Blood Donor" grade approved screening assays and testing algorithms. These assays and testing algorithms are the once used to protect our Nation's blood supply.

The RPR test is the standard in the industry to detect Syphilis. As part of the testing algorithm, if a reactive result arises, a follow-up confirmatory treponema test is performed in order to confirm the result. It is also recommended that if a case arises where recent exposure with a carrier has been identified (first generation), the RPR in conjunction with the confirmatory treponema test and preemptive treatment should be the prudent course of action. This Syphilis screening algorithm is what is recommended by the Center for Disease Control (CDC).

The health and well being of the Talent, as well as the continued success of the Adult industry will always be at the forefront of what we provide.

TALENT TESTING SERVICES, INC. ENHANCES ITS MEDICAL COUNCIL AND OUTREACH PROGRAM

Miami, FL August 28, 2012 - Talent Testing Services, Inc. (TTS) in response to the recent syphilis outbreak, the growing industry concern over STDs, and the misinformation that has come along with it, TTS has named Dr. David Smith, M.D., M.A.S., an infectious disease specialist, to head its Internal Medical Council and Outreach Program. Dr. Smith's qualifications make him the top candidate to head this initiative of Talent Testing Service, Inc.

The TTS Medical Council and Outreach Program will help answer questions from Talents, Agents and Production companies regarding syphilis treatment, HIV, HBV, HCV and any others related to sexually transmitted diseases. "Given the recent syphilis outbreak we have seen a lot of misinformation being exchanged back and forth in the industry. This helps no one." said Sixto Pacheco, President of TTS. "The TTS Medical Council and Outreach Program, now headed by Dr. Smith, will have as its prime directive to educate, inform and proactively address the health issues of the Talent community and industry," continued Mr. Pacheco.

Talents, Agents and Production companies can email questions, in full confidentiality to questions@talenttestingservice.com and these will be answered in a timely manner.

TTS STATEMENT TO RECENT EVENTS

Miami, FL August 23, 2012 - Talent Testing Services, Inc. (TTS) categorically denies that there has been any inappropriate behavior on the part of its personnel to accommodate Mr. Marcus's request to alter the Basic Talent Panel test results. Our proprietary software has different levels of security embedded into its code to protect the integrity of the test result report. If a Talent chooses a Basic Talent Panel, or a Full Talent Panel, ALL test in the panel selected have to be performed before the system provides a "Cleared" or "Not Cleared" status.

If the Talent is reactive/positive to any of the markers in the panel, the system will automatically disable the results and provide a "Not Cleared" status. This means that the results can not be either emailed, printed or shown on the screen.

With regards to the manipulation of the printed test results, TTS since 2011, has included QR Codes and Authentication Codes, in its printed results, to avoid anyone fabricating a report. The only flaw in the system is that it has to be used for it to work.

Since 2007 Talent Testing Services has been ahead of the curve implementing leading edge technologies and testing methods to safeguard the health of Talents and the industry. We look forward to the industry's continued support.

TALENT TESTING SERVICES VALIDATION FEATURES AND ENHANCED RESULTS REPORTING

Miami, FL August 21, 2012 - Talent Testing Services, Inc. (TTS) would like to remind Talents, Agents and Producers the many validation features found in a printed and web based Talent test result.

QR CODES: Implemented on December 2011
We implemented QR Code Technology to protect the validity of all printed and web based results. All results now have a QRCode 2 Square below the results section of the report that when used in conjunction with any smart phone QR Code scanning software (such as ScanLife by Scanbuy, Inc. or Scan by QR Code City, LLC) it will show if the results are authentic and valid.

Once the barcode has been scanned, the browser will direct you to the TTS Mobile page that shows the Talent Id#, Date of Birth (DOB), Test Expiration Date (based on a 30-day testing cycle), and the actual test results. This technology will permit any user viewing an actual paper result to verify its authenticity on-demand.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. POSITION ON MANWIN/FSC/APHSS

Talent Testing Service, Inc. (TTS) worked diligently to comply with three basic requirements in order to appease the Manwin/FSC/APHSS model of presenting a unified reporting system. These three items were:

1. Change our web portal to demonstrate a "Cleared/Not Cleared" status of results instead of showing the actual test results.
2. Automated transfer of Talent Status to the APHSS Database
3. Cooperate in helping to build protocols in case of a positive case.

Once these three items were completed, Manwin/FSC/APHSS was to issue a press release indicating that it would accept TTS test status to be viewed in the TTS web portal by its producers and agents. After completing the first two items, TTS was asked to provide its protocols for handling positive cases to Manwin/FSC/APHSS. We indicated that this was not part of our agreement, that we would assist and help to create these needed protocols (as agreed), but we would not have ours copied for use at Manwin/FSC/APHSS. We consider these protocols to be proprietary and confidential. At this time Manwin/FSC/APHSS demanded to see these procedures for which we declined.

"It has become evident that our initial position of not participating in the Manwin/FSC/APHSS mechanism for testing / reporting is the correct one." said Sixto Pacheco, President and CEO of TTS. "We have always believed that industry testing laboratories should be completely unbiased and unattached from any other industry affiliated organizations in order to avoid any misconception about the validity of the testing being performed. Furthermore, the manual entry of a talents "Status" into the Manwin/FSC/APHSS database by any participating facility is an unsafe practice." added Mr. Pacheco.

TTS will continue to provide the level of service our stakeholders are accustomed to by providing the latest testing methodologies coupled with our technology based platform without sacrificing our Quality and Privacy Policies and Protocols in place.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. (TTS) WELCOMES ADOPTION OF APTIMA TESTING BY ITS COUNTERPARTS

Talent Testing Service, Inc. (TTS) welcomes the move by Manwin and APHSS in adopting new testing standards that require their performers and third party producers visit clinics/laboratories that only use the FDA approved HIV-1 Aptima RNA Qualitative Assay.

"Talent Testing Service has been offering the HIV-1 Aptima RNA Qualitative Assay approved since 2006 as part of our company philosophy to provide the most accurate and reliable testing to the industry." said Sixto Pacheco, President and CEO of TTS. "The implementation of this methodology by TTS was a welcomed addition to our product offering which continues to evolve as new technologies emerge" added Mr. Pacheco.

Earlier this month TTS decided that it would integrate as part of its Basic Panel the RPR test which is used to test for syphilis. The addition of this test did not affect the cost structure being offered to the talents.

To facilitate our clients the accessibility to its testing program, TTS has over 300 drawing sites across the United States staffed with courteous licensed professionals, offering Talents unparalleled convenience, safety and service. We provide same day test results for clients who visit our Miami office before 12pm, and 24 hour test results for clients who visit the other 300 facilities.

TALENT TESTING SERVICE, INC. (TTS) ADDS SYPHILIS TESTING TO ITS BASIC PANEL AT NO ADDITIONAL COST

In its effort to provide the most comprehensive and accurate testing in the Adult Industry, Talent Testing
Service, Inc. (TTS) will now offer Syphilis testing as part of the TTS Basic Panel option. The Syphilis
test will complement the HIV-1 RNA and Chlamydia / Gonorrhea testing already offered in the TTS Basic
Panel. The cost of the TTS Basic Panel will remain the same.

The methodology used will be the RPR (rapid plasma regain) screening test for Syphilis. This test
looks for antibodies that are present in the blood of people who have the disease. Syphilis is a sexually
transmitted infection (STI) that is usually spread during sexual contact, including kissing and/or oral sex.
This test is approved by the FDA and is currently used to screen the US Blood Supply.

The addition of this test supports TTS's ongoing commitment to offer the most advanced and complete
infectious testing for the adult industry. Since 2006, TTS has offered testing for HIV RNA via the FDA
approved Aptima PCR Methodology which detects the presence of the HIV virus earlier than all other
tests.

TTS STATEMENT OF POSITION ON HIV TESTING METHODOLOGY

HIV-1 RNA Testing - Miami, FL - April 9, 2012

Determining the best HIV testing methodology is a critically important issue especially for our industry. For the past 12 years, Talent Testing Service, Inc. (TTS) has been at the forefront of this discussion. We have researched technological advancements, reviewed the opinions of policy makers and stakeholders and kept up-to-date on FDA discussions regarding testing methods.

We have been directly involved in the research development of these new and emerging infectious disease testing methodologies. This research strives to help develop the most sensitive assays in order to detect the HIV virus (amongst other infectious markers) at its' most primal state. Our laboratory is a high complexity molecular laboratory holding a federal CLIA Certificate as well as being COLA accredited.

TTS' test methodology for HIV-1 RNA is marketed under the name "Aptima HIV-1 RNA Qualitative Assay". This FDA Approved assay is intended for the detection of HIV-1 in human plasma and serum as a diagnostic tool in detecting HIV-1 infection, including acute or primary infection. Although not stated in its trademarked name, this qualitative assay employs reverse transcriptase (RT) when transforming RNA to DNA and then back to RNA (Please see attached APTIMA HIV-1 RNA Qualitatitve Assay Insert - Principles of the Procedure).

Another well known assay in the market is the "Abbott RealTime HIV-1" assay. This is another reverse-transcription (RT) assay intended for the Quantification of the HIV-1 virus in previously identified HIV-1 infected individuals. It is intended for use in conjunction with clinical presentations and other laboratory markers for disease prognosis and for use as an aid in assessing viral response to anti-retroviral treatment as measured by changes in plasma HIV-1 RNA levels (See Attached insert). This test is very useful in already HIV-1 diagnosed individuals as a treatment tool for physicians. However, TTS' concerned with this methodology is that it is a Quantitative tool and is less sensitive at detecting HIV-1 RNA than the Qualitative APTIMA assay. Consequently, if the Abbott RT HIV-1 assay is used as a screening assay to detect HIV-1, this use is considered an "off label use" as it has not been approved by the FDA to be used for this purpose. There are many other assays that are considered to be "home brew" or "in-house" assays. These assays are also referred to as LDA's (Laboratory Developed Assays). Although these alternatives may meet our testing needs, they have not gone through the extremely rigorous scrutiny required to meet the quality standards of the FDA.

TTS currently holds the technology to perform both assays mentioned above and employs the APTIMA technology for diagnosing HIV and the Abbott m2000sp/rt for patient management. It is our understanding that the use of a Qualitative FDA approved methodology is more sensitive than a Quanitative assay since their intended use is different. Another determining factor for the use of the APTIMA HIV-1 technology is that it is the market leading assay employed in the screening and safeguarding of the nation's blood supply.

TTS has always had an open door policy with its stakeholders - our talents, agents, producers, regulatory officials and others involved in the industry. As such, we invite anyone to come to our testing facility and tour the same. In addition to this, TTS will always strive to continue its R&D efforts to protect the industry in regards to its diagnostics needs. Notwithstanding, if a governing body or any stakeholder requests that a different technology be employed to protect our industry we will look forward to evaluating those options.

TTS is proud to be working with all of you on these issues. Through time and conversation, we will continue to be successful in meeting our interest and the interests of all of our stakeholders.
