Press Release Summary = Inflammation marker CRP is now available at LeeBio.com

Press Release Body = ST. LOUIS - Lee Biosolutions has announced the production and
availability of Human C-Reactive Protein (CRP) for purchase at LeeBio.com (refer to
Category No. 140-11).

C-Reactive Protein is a protein found in the blood that operates as a marker for
inflammation, meaning its presence indicates an increased state of inflammation in
the body. Inflammation is a normal response to a number of physical states including
fever, injury and infection. Inflammation is also believed to play a role in the
initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease.

According to Lee Biosolutions President Burton Lee, the company pays close attention
to the clinical research community to stay ahead of their demands for products like
CRP.

"Lee Biosolutions has developed a reputation for high quality biomarker production."
Lee said. "Cardiac markers like myeloperoxidase, cardiac troponin and C-Reactive
Protein have become very popular among researchers in recent years as they study the
diagnosis and treatment of cardiac diseases and conditions."

CRP studies have shown that baseline Human C-Reactive Protein concentrations are not
subject to time-of-day variation and, therefore, help explain why CRP concentrations
are a better predictor of vascular risk than interleukin-6. Determination of CRP
for cardiovascular risk prediction may be performed without concern for diumal
variation.

According to the National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry reports on Human CRP,
increased concentrations of inflammatory biomarkers such as Human C-Reactive Protein
CRP, serum Amvloid A, myeloperoxidase and interleukin-6 are detectable in ACS (acute
coronary syndrome) patients.

Lee Biosolutions is a leader in the biomaterials industry, providing the quality
biomaterial products to clinical labs and researchers around the world, developing
tomorrow's cures. The company has provided the materials used in a number of high
profile biomarker studies. For more information or to place an order, contact Lee
Biosolutions at 314-968-1091, or visit the company's newly redesigned website,
