About Micro Imaging Technology

Micro Imaging Technology, Inc., a development stage company, engages in the development of fluid monitoring systems for water monitoring, as well as food processing and clinical applications. The company has two major areas for exploitation, such as the detection and early warning of dangerous particulate materials, such as parasites and other organisms, including bacteria, spores, etc.; and the detection and early warning of dangerous soluble substances, such as mutagens, carcinogens, and metabolic poisons. The company’s customers for a water monitoring system would include local water utilities, both private and municipal; state water utilities and water quality and health agencies; federal government agencies, such as EPA, DoD, DoE, and CDC; wastewater treatment plants; ground water and well users; and homeowners. In addition to Cryptosporidium and Giardia protozoas, the company’s technology has demonstrated, in proof-of-principal testing, identification of the bacteria E. coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Listeria typhi, Salmonella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. The company intends to add to the system the ability to identify additional pathogens, including but not limited to, Klebsiella, Proteus, and Shigella. The company is developing a non-biologically based system utilizing both proprietary hardware and software to determine the specific specie of an unknown microbe present in a fluid with a high degree of statistical probability (MIT System). It would analyze a sample presented to it and compare its characteristics to a library of known microbe characteristics on file. Patents Micro Imaging Technology and Micro Identification Technologies are registered trademarks of the company. Research and Development During the year ended October 31, 2013, the company expended $411,015 primarily on its MIT System research program to develop a microbiological detection and monitoring system. History The company was founded in 1979. It was incorporated in 1979 in California. The company was formerly known as HOH Water Technology Corporation and changed its name to Electropure, Inc. in 1996. Further, the company changed its name to Micro Imaging Technology, Inc. in 2005.
