DOYLESTOWN, PA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 05/21/07 -- QuantRx® Biomedical Corporation (OTCBB: QTXB), an emerging leader in the research and development of medical diagnostic platforms and products, today announced that it has entered into an agreement with ALT BioScience, LLC to develop a portfolio of healthcare products related to oral health for distribution in the consumer and medical marketplaces.

The first QuantRx-developed product is a consumer quick-check test for detection of bad breath, to be marketed by ALT BioScience, and is based on ALT BioScience's oral health platform technology. Product introduction into the market is anticipated in late 2007.

Leslie J. Herzog, President and Chief Executive Officer of ALT BioScience, stated, "There is a need today for better oral health care due to emerging data that suggest that periodontal disease is linked to pre-term births and systemic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. These connections are driving awareness that a healthy mouth may lead to a more healthy body. As a result, we believe saliva tests ranging from halitosis to moderate to severe periodontal disease could possibly drive consumer awareness from a hygiene and health benefit while providing medical and dental professionals innovation for better overall patient management in high-risk patients."

Ms. Herzog added, "We are pleased to partner with QuantRx due to its unmatched ability to develop advanced technologies into point-of-care products ranging from consumer to medical diagnostics."

Cynthia E. Horton, QuantRx Vice President-Diagnostics, said, "This oral care product is the first of several that QuantRx is developing for ALT BioScience, and we view it as the beginning of an extended productive business relationship. This project again demonstrates the industry's confidence in QuantRx lateral flow technology and its ability to partner with other companies to accelerate development of lateral flow products for rapid launch into the marketplace."
