ALAMEDA, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 20, 2009 -- Proton Laboratories Inc. (Other OTC:PLBI.PK - News)
At a conference in San Diego, California, Jim Wheeler, President & CEO of Proton labs discussed the recent outbreak of salmonella across the United States, and how if the peanuts had been washed with Proton's electrolyzed water this would not have happened. Proton Laboratories is a biotechnology company that develops GREEN solutions utilizing electrolyzed water for both residential and commercial applications.

Jim Wheeler, President and CEO of Proton, said, "Minnesota health officials issued a product alert for peanut butter on Friday after finding a jar that was contaminated with a strain of salmonella linked to an outbreak across the United States. The outbreak of salmonella food poisoning has sickened at least 399 people and put 70 or more into hospitals since September." Jim also said, "Proton has invested heavily in the area of health and wellness and it is a shame that people are still sick and dying of something that is so easily eliminated."
