    WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 30, 2007--Interleukin
Genetics, Inc. (AMEX: ILI) reported today that it has entered into a
new research agreement with Access Business Group International LLC
(ABG), a subsidiary of Alticor Inc. The research agreement encompasses
the development of genetic tests to guide consumers' selection of
appropriate skin care products; the further development of tests for

development of other tests. Under the terms of the agreement,
Interleukin is eligible to receive up to $2.3 million in additional
