Exhibit 99.1
Avalon GloboCare and Qi Diagnostics Enter into Memorandum of Understanding for Proposed Co-Development of Real-Time Cannabis Breathalyzer for Detecting Potential Impaired Driving
FREEHOLD, N.J., October 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Avalon GloboCare Corp. (“Avalon” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ALBT), a developer of innovative precision diagnostics and laboratory services, today announced that it entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with Qi Diagnostics Limited (“Qi Diagnostics”), a nanosensor-based diagnostic technologies company, to explore a proposed strategic collaboration to co-develop a VOC (volatile organic compound) nanosensor-based point-of-care cannabis breathalyzer. The MOU provides Avalon with an exclusivity period of 120 days (the “Exclusivity Period”), during which Avalon intends to negotiate with Qi Diagnostics and enter into a definitive agreement regarding the proposed strategic collaboration.
If Avalon and Qi Diagnostics enter into a definitive agreement within the Exclusivity Period, then the proposed collaboration would focus on the initial prototype-enabling stage, which would involve critical research, data collection, software development, and drafting of the prototype design of a breathalyzer that is capable of detecting cannabis. Avalon believes that its regulatory expertise would be beneficial to such collaboration, including but not limited to its experience with regulatory pathways, clinical trials, and approval process in the United States.
“The proposed collaboration with Qi Diagnostics would be a milestone in our commitment to developing innovative diagnostic solutions,” stated David Jin, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Avalon GloboCare. “We intend to enter into a definitive agreement with Qi Diagnostics during the Exclusivity Period, and then put our effort into the development of a VOC nanosensor-based cannabis breathalyzer that is capable of addressing the need for point-of-care testing in law enforcement and workplace safety.”
The proposed collaboration with Qi Diagnostics is subject to negotiations during the Exclusivity Period, during which we intend to enter into a definitive agreement for the development of the breathalyzer. However, there can be no assurance that the terms of such definitive agreement will be acceptable to Avalon or Qi Diagnostics. Accordingly, Avalon and Qi Diagnostics may not enter into such definitive agreement during the Exclusivity Period or at all.
