FREDERICK, MD- - BioElectronics Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BIEL), the maker of inexpensive, disposable drug-free anti-inflammatory devices, today announced the United States Patent and Trademark Office has issued a significant new patent to the Company. The patent protects BioElectronics Corp's systems and techniques for applying an electromagnetic field to bodily tissue including a self-contained and portable electromagnetic field generating device disposed over a surface of bodily tissue.

PEMF technology has been proven safe and effective in hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific studies. Up until now, however, PEMF devices have been very expensive large devices and usually based in clinical settings such as clinics or hospitals. Through the use of advanced micro-circuitry the engineers at BioElectronics have shrunk this technology into a wafer-thin device that can be worn directly on the skin to relieve pain, swelling and speed healing.

"This is a very important and significant event for BioElectronics. As consumers and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration become increasingly aware of the potential dangers of drugs such as acetaminophen, consumers are increasingly searching for alternatives," commented Andrew Whelan, CEO of BioElectronics. "PEMF therapy is a proven safe and effective alternative for many musculoskeletal disorders and there is a growing body of research showing its effectiveness in speeding surgical recovery and in reducing, or completely eliminating, the amount of pain medication required. This patent ensures our ability to be the sole provider of this technology in a wearable and portable form factor and significantly increases the value of our Company."
