Pullman, Washington (PRWEB) November 05, 2014

ABR (now a VMRD division) announced today the availability of new testing services that can detect the presence of mycoplasma in animal origin products, master virus seeds, and other sample types. The new services satisfy various regulatory standards including US Pharmacopoeia (USP), European Pharmacopeia (EP), and 1993 FDA Points to Consider.

“This is a very exciting development and represents a major milestone towards our goal of being a one-stop-shop for the adventitious agent testing needs of our customers”, said Dr. Richard Jones, Vice President of ABR.

Mycoplasmas and the related acholeplasmas are one of the smallest (0.15 to 0.3 µM) and self-replicating bacteria and are frequent contaminants of animal origin products. Mycoplasma contamination may be introduced into cell cultures or biological products through master virus seeds, master cell stocks, starting material of animal origin such as serum and trypsin, during passage of cells and virus, and in product assembly.

“Mycoplasma contamination can change the metabolism of cells, resulting in physical and chemical changes in the cell and potential production of unreliable and unsafe biologicals,” said Jose Alcocer, Sr. Microbiologist. “It is essential that biological products be tested for mycoplasma contamination to assure consistency of production and final product safety.”

The potential to test raw materials and other sample types by multiple standards gives ABR the ability to satisfy the needed requirements that vary based on specific customer and product types as well as planned usage of the material they are providing. Besides these new services, ABR offers mycoplasma testing to satisfy USDA 9CFR regulations and also provides an extensive list of other testing services for viruses and bacteria. ABR is the services division of VMRD.

For more information, contact ABR at 509-334-2968 or visit services.vmrd.com.

About VMRD: VMRD was founded in 1981 by D. Scott Adams, DVM, PhD, and currently employs approximately 50 researchers, lab technicians and support personnel.

The event, which packed St. Andrews Country Club to capacity once again, treated attendees to an exclusive fashion show by Neiman Marcus Boca Raton, a pop up boutique and makeovers courtesy of Dior Beauty, and presentations from leading lymphoma expert Dr. Stephen D. Nimer, Director, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.

“Year after year, we are continually impressed by the support the South Florida community shows to LRF through these luncheons,” said Gladys Cook, founding co-chair of the luncheon. “This year’s event illustrated once again that we can make a real difference in advancing lymphoma research and providing important educational resources to those affected by this blood cancer by supporting the Lymphoma Research Foundation’s mission.”

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) February 18, 2015

DebtWave Credit Counseling, Inc. introduced their rebranded image to the public in January 2015. Their recently launched website features a redesigned logo and color scheme to accompany their new slogan–“Making Your Life Simple.” Their unofficial mascot, a piggy bank, can be found in their logo as well as in various short videos on their homepage (desktop version). DebtWave’s redesigned website is breaking away from heavy content and replacing it with a modern design that ultimately aims to enhance the user experience.

“Our vision for the site was to create something modern and completely different from the competition,” says Marketing Manager, Melina Delis. “Most of the other agencies have so much content on their website, and I don’t think people who are overwhelmed with credit card debt want to read paragraph after paragraph of information. Within a few seconds of visiting the website, we want to capture peoples’ attention and have them see us as a trustworthy brand. Then they can call one of our Certified Credit Counselors to find a solution to their unique, financial situation.”

Find out more about the DebtWave Certified Credit Counselors here: http://www.debtwave.com/services/

In addition to their rebranded image, DebtWave has begun work on developing an online portal called Payoff Pilot. Set to launch later on this year, Payoff Pilot will allow future clients to perform their own online credit counseling session and sign up for a Debt Management Program without having to speak with a credit counselor. This software will enable individuals to view their credit report and credit score, create a budget and view their potential savings, and choose from one of the various payment plans to pay off their credit card debt.

“We’re excited to provide future clients the ability to do everything online at their own leisure,” says Director of Counseling Services, Carlos Perez. “We all have such busy lives nowadays where spending 30-45 minutes on the phone with a counselor can be challenging for some people. Plus, some people are embarrassed to talk to a stranger about their credit card debt. Payoff Pilot will offer both privacy and convenience.”

Despite the cosmetic changes, DebtWave is still committed to providing credit counseling and debt management services nationwide. They remain a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that offers free credit counseling sessions, a Debt Management Program, student loan consolidation, and a financial education program. They can provide customers with lower interest rates, one monthly payment, and the ability to get out of debt in 3-5 years.

DebtWave Credit Counseling, Inc. is a nonprofit, nationwide credit counseling agency that was established in 2001 with the mission of delivering debt management and financial education to the public.

The Simplified Acquisition Program has proven to be the most efficient government-marketing program in 2014. US Federal Contractor Registration, the world’s largest third party registration firm developed the Simplified Acquisition Program in an effort to help small businesses win simplified acquisition contracts. Fabricare Draperies Inc enrolled in the Simplified Acquisition Program in December of 2013, and as a result won 63 federal contracts totaling $ 817,498. Peter Lanore of US Federal Contractor Registration suggested that the Simplified Acquisition Program would be the best government-marketing program for their business model based on their business goals. Fabricare Draperies Inc has managed to become extremely successful in the federal marketplace from a direct result of the Simplified Acquisition Program.

Below are some of the awarded government contracts won by Fabricare Draperies Inc as found on the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS):

The first phase in implementation of Simplified Acquisition Program is the creation of a federally formatted website viewable at http://www.fabricare1gov.com/. This site services as the central HUB for all purchasing officers to view for key criteria needed to award federal contracts such as: Past Performance, Capabilities Statement, Federal Registration Information (CAGE Code, D&B, GSA Schedule, SDVOSB, WOSB..etc), and the businesses contact information. The website also displays the Verified Vendor Seal which is only allowed to be administered by US Federal Contractor Registration. The Simplified Acquisition Program then provided Fabricare Draperies with monthly email bid notifications; these bid notifications were sent directly to the contact email on Fabricare Draperies Inc’s account with US Federal Contractor Registration. Each of the emails provided new solicitations that were available for bidding that matched their North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes and were relevant to the business goals of Fabricare Draperies Inc. The next step was building Fabricare Draperies Inc’s profile on the SBA small business search website. This profile allows purchasing officers to access the set asides that Fabricare Draperies Inc qualified for, allowing compliance with FAR 13 and the Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Fabricare Draperies Inc was then provided a custom business plan that included the names of purchasing officers that were using simplified acquisitions to procure the goods Fabricare Draperies Inc was selling. Lastly with the list of purchasing officers Fabricare Draperies Inc was able to land contracts not currently placed out for bid by reaching out to Federal contacts before their competition.

US Federal Contractor Registration is the only firm allowed to qualify and maintain the simplified acquisition program. For businesses interested in learning more please visit SimplifiedAcquisitionProgram.org.

Federal Purchasing officers looking for information on Fabricare Draperies Inc please call Shelly Abramson at (301) 770-2457 or visit their Federally formatted website at http://www.fabricare1gov.com/.

Peter Lanore can be reached at (727) 471-2160 to discuss Simplified Acquisition Program enrollment for both federally registered and unregistered businesses.
