AuGRID Is Awarded Provisionary Patent on Nano Particle Formulation - Agriculture Will Benefit from Nanotechnology



HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 6, 2004--AuGRID Corporation (OTCBB:AGRD) have announced it has received from the United States Patents Office, a preliminary acceptance notice on its provisional patent filed last May. The Company is now preparing and amending the final draft of the full patent filing under each of its applications. The Patent consist of several combinations of particle design, based on the fundamental interaction and transport of particles through various environments using sophisticated techniques to unravel the transport and biological processes taking place at the nano level.


AuGRID plans to provide a solution base and close interaction with farmers to control the soil depletion in agricultural states in the US and abroad. Depletion of soil fertility -- along with weed, pest, and disease problems -- is a major biophysical cause of low per capita food production. The potential of genetically improved crops cannot be realized when soils are depleted of plant nutrients. AuGRID's basic principal is based on reversing this condition.

AuGRID, which has several products ready for launch, has initiated the process to bring these products to market under patent protection. As a first step, the marketing team will target the multi-billion dollar home gardening industry specifically industry giants, Home Depot (NYSE:HD), Lowe's (NYSE:LOW) and Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT). Step two will be to facilitate this technology to the network of nurseries associated with the delivery chain of pot plants to the retail environment including most of the previously mentioned candidates. The products will be marketed under the brand name, HydraDyne Systems.

An additional benefit of the HydraDyne formula is a potential water retention system to increase the limited productivity of coarse soils by increasing the water holding capacity and efficiency of water use by plants.

AuGRID Corporation and its subsidiaries, Alysium Corporation and Optipure, LLC, are technology-based organizations, specializing in the manufacturing, distribution and development of electronic and display devices, thermocouples, silicon carbide tools and specialty industrial products.
