We note the new disclosure on page 49 and in the risk factors section regarding the recently completed FDA inspection, the company`s receipt of an FDA Form 483, the possibility that the company will receive an FDA warning letter, and the potential consequences if the company becomes the subject of an FDA enforcement action. Please include appropriate disclosure regarding these issues in the Summary of the prospectus. Please also expand your disclosure on page 49 to include the following: * An explanation as to why Medical Device Reports were not timely submitted to the FDA in connection with six of the seven complaints that the inspector reviewed claiming that your INRatio device took inaccurate readings. * Disclosure regarding the total number of complaints that you have received to date alleging that your INRatio device took inaccurate readings. * An explanation of the nature of the complaints that you have received alleging that your INRatio device took inaccurate readings, given the quality control tests incorporated into your test strips and your disclosure that the INRatio meter does not display potentially incorrect test results. * An explanation of the procedure employed to calibrate your test strips. * Clarification regarding the date in June 2005 on which you expect to submit a response to the FDA regarding the issues raised in the Form 483 and, to the extent known or determinable, a summary of your anticipated response.

Underwriting - Page 72 2. We note your revisions to the plan of distribution and your response to prior comment 10. However, because prospective investors may be allowed to place orders online, please confirm that, if true, the underwriters will also obtain a representation from each member of the syndicate or selling group that any member engaging in the electronic offer, sale or distribution of securities in connection with this offering will follow procedures for electronic distributions previously cleared with the staff. Exhibit 5.1 3. We note counsel`s assumption that the shares will be issued and sold "in accordance with the resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company." Please revise the corpus of the opinion to state, if true, that the issuance of the shares has been duly authorized by the board of directors of the company. Please also revise to clarify that "resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors" only refers to resolutions authorizing the issuance of the shares previously adopted by the board and any future resolutions of the board or a pricing committee relating to the pricing of the shares. * * * As appropriate, please amend your registration statement in response to these comments.
