Kane Biotech Inc. (TSX VENTURE: KNE), a biotechnology company engaged in the development of products that prevent and disperse microbial biofilms (the "Company"), today announces a non-brokered private placement offering (the "Offering") for gross proceeds of up to $500,000 consisting of up to 3,846,154 units ("Units") at a price of $0.13 per Unit.

About Kane Biotech Inc.

Kane Biotech is a biotechnology company engaged in the development of products to prevent and disperse biofilms. Biofilms develop when bacteria, and other microorganisms, form a protective matrix that acts as a shield against attack. When in a biofilm, bacteria become highly resistant to antibiotics, biocides, disinfectants, high temperatures and host immune responses. This resiliency contributes to human health problems such as recurrent urinary tract infections, medical device associated infections and tooth decay.

Kane Biotech uses a patent protected technology based on molecular mechanisms of biofilm formation and methods for finding compounds that inhibit or disrupt biofilms. The Company has evidence that this technology has potential to significantly improve the ability to prevent and/or destroy biofilms in several medical and industrial applications.

Certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian provincial securities legislation (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, our objectives, goals, targets, strategies, intentions, plans, beliefs, estimates and outlook, including, without limitation, our anticipated future operating results, and can, in some cases, be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "will," "may" and other similar expressions.

Kane Biotech Granted Third United States Patent for Oral Care Technology - Zibb.com

Kane Biotech Inc. (TSX VENTURE: KNE), a biotechnology company engaged in the development of products that prevent and disperse microbial biofilms, is pleased to announce the issuance of Patent No. 7,597,895 entitled "Signal peptides, nucleic acid molecules and methods for treatment of caries" by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. This is the third patent to issue protecting Kane Biotech's CSP (Competence Stimulating Peptide) technology.

This patent claims a composition such as toothpaste, mouthwash, a food additive or chewing gum containing Kane's CSP analogue peptide called E2 and an additional analogue and/or a monoclonal antibody, antibiotic or antioxidant. The two previously issued US patents (6,923,962 & 7,556,807) claim isolated as well as synthetic CSP, and a method of preventing and treating dental plaque associated conditions such as dental cavities and periodontal disease using analogues of CSP in oral care formulations. Dr. Dennis Cvitkovitch (Dental Research Institute, University of Toronto), discoverer of CSP in Streptococcus mutans, demonstrated the ability of CSP analogue peptides to inhibit dental cavities-associated streptococcal biofilm (plaque) formation.

"We have demonstrated a significant synergistic inhibitory effect of combining E2 with selected antimicrobials on dental cavities-associated Streptococci, including S. mutans. This shows that an oral care product containing E2 analogue with either an antibody or antibiotic will be more effective than using the analogue alone in preventing dental cavities", stated Dr. Sri Madhyastha, Vice President, Research and Chief Scientific Officer of Kane Biotech.
