File No. 0-7405

Dear Mr. Vaughn:

We have received your correspondence dated January 14, 2011.  We have addressed your comments by reproducing below each comment and providing our response immediately thereafter.

Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010

General

1.
Please tell us whether and when you have held annual meetings of your shareholders.  If you have not held annual meetings, please explain how this is consistent with Article II section 1 of your by-law and the law of your jurisdiction of incorporation.

Response:  We have not held annual meetings of our shareholders despite the requirement to have annual shareholder meetings in our By-laws and under the New Jersey Business Corporation Act.  As with many smaller reporting companies, we are focused on marshalling our limited financial resources to achieving our business plan. The cost of holding an annual meeting of shareholders would be significant and not the best use of our resources in our view and, we believe, the view of our shareholders.  We are in touch with our shareholders on a daily basis and have not received any requests for an annual meeting of shareholders. We realize that if we had such a request and did not hold an annual meeting of shareholders that we can be compelled to do so by those shareholders who wanted a meeting through filing a claim with the New Jersey courts.  While we have not held an annual shareholders meeting it is our intention to do so a prudent use of our cash allows which we expect will be in 2012.
 


Product Development and Partnerships, page 5

2.  
It appears the agreements filed as exhibits 10.10 and 10.11 may have terminated.  Please clarify the status of these agreements and your relationship with Infotonics. For example, tell us, with a view toward disclosure in future filings, what you mean by the term "equity partner," what specific functions that entity performs for you and the amounts you have paid to it during the periods presented.

 
Response:  The agreements cited as exhibits 10.10 and 10.11 have terminated and will be removed from the exhibit list.  These agreements were between our predecessor, Mediscience Technology Corp., and Infotonics, prior to Mediscience's acquisition of SensiVida Medical Systems. The agreement dated June 27, 2007 (Exhibit 10.10) terminated on December 31, 2007. The agreement dated March 3, 2008 (Exhibit 10.11) terminated on December 31, 2008 and was not renewed. The Company has license rights to two pending patents filed under these agreements.  There is no further work ongoing with Infotonics in the area covered by these agreements, i.e. tissue autofluorescence.

 
We used the term “equity partner” since Infotonics held 14.7% of the equity in SensiVida Medical Systems and was, therefore, one of the three principal shareholders in SensiVida Medical Systems prior to its acquisition by our predecessor, Mediscience Technology Corp. Infotonics received approximately 49,000 shares of our common stock after the acquisiton of SensiVida Medical Systems by Mediscience.

During the fiscal period ending February 28, 2010, covered by our Form 10-K, Infotonics' role has been primarily that of a vendor/service provider, fabricating microneedles for our allergy test product. During this period we paid Infotonics approximately $29,000 for fabricating microneedles.

3.
In addition to disclosing the obligations of WI, Inc., Dhurjati Electronics and MDC Associates under your arrangements with them, please also tell us and revise future filings to disclose what specific tasks those entities have actually performed pursuant to those obligations.  Please also file your agreements with them as exhibits.

 
Response:  We have amended our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 to disclose the obligations of Wi, Inc., Dhurjati Electronics and MDC Associates under our arrangements with them and the specific tasks these entities are performing for us.  We also have filed the agreements that we have with these entities as exhibits to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.

Business Development and Marketing, page 6

4.
Please tell us the basis for the last sentence on this page, given the status of your operations and product development, your number of employees and financial position and the lack of regulatory approval to market and sell any product.
 
 


 
 
Response: The basis of this statement is a thorough business case that takes into account time and cost required for product development of the allergy test cartridge and system module, FDA clinical trials, establishing a contract sales force, creating inventory and rolling out the sales process. Timelines for each one of these steps, including respective cycle times of execution, are in place. The expected time to revenue assuming reasonable commercialization and technical risks has been estimated to be approximately 18 months. A rate of product adoption based on our primary business research and market segmentation has been assumed for each year, initially starting at our first market segment, the allergist specialist, followed by an allergy screening product commercialized a year later at retail clinics. Based on allergy system adoption per year, sales productivity, yearly test volume usage per doctor, allergy test reimbursement rates (about $7/allergen), average number of allergens tested per patient (40-50), expected unit manufacturing cost, and increased profitability desired by allergists obtained by our primary business research work, revenue versus year was calculated. An additional revenue stream coming from our second market segment (retail clinics) is assumed to commence one year after introduction of the allergist product. Revenue estimates for this segment assume adoption by one major retail clinic and gradual placement of test units into their chain. We have discussed our allergy test with industry experts and participants in the retail clinics to evaluate the value proposition of our product for these customers. Adoption projections are consistent with their feedback, expected primary care physician referrals to retail clinics, and market size for an allergy screen product. The 2016 revenue figure corresponds to approximately 14% of the today's $1.9B allergy test market (we have updated data since we filed the Form 10-K for fiscal year ending February 28, 2010) including an incremental component attributed to screening tests provided at retail clinics. Covering all assumptions and analyses included in these projections is outside the scope of this disclosure and details. Other details involving sales and marketing strategy are confidential.

Starting in March and ending in July 2010, we were able to raise approximately $1.5M in our Series A convertible preferred stock financing. During this time, the time schedule for commercialization and clinical trial work summarized above was on track. Due to loss of funding starting in July 2010 to date, unavoidable delays in product commercialization have occurred, delaying product launch to July 2012. These delays and their effect on revenue projections have been assessed and will be reported in our next 10-K filing.

Intellectual Property, page 11

5.
Please explain why you have not filed the license agreements governing your material patents as exhibits, such as those licensed from the Infotonics Technology Center.  Disclose the material terms of these licenses including, without limitation, their duration.

 
Response: We have amended our Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2010 to include these license agreements governing our material patents as exhibits and disclosed the material terms of these licenses, including their duration.
 


 
6.
Please tell us, with a view toward disclosure in future filings, how this section addresses the "worldwide licensing rights for patents from Yale University" mentioned on page 40.  Please also tell us where the document governing that agreement is filed as an exhibit.

 
Response:  The licensing rights were acquired by two agreements with Yale University on May 4, 1993 and November 30, 1993. Since we have in the past year focused our attention on the allergy and glucose monitoring industries, it is unlikely that we will pursue the use of these rights and all reference to these rights will be deleted in future filings.

Scientific Staff and Medical Advisors, page 13

7.
Please tell us, with a view toward disclosure in future filings, why you have not provided the disclosure required by Item 401 of Regulation S-K for each "key" person listed on page 14.

 
Response:  The key persons identified on page 14 of our Form 10-K for the period ended February 28, 2010 were consultants and not significant employees so we did not believe any disclosure of their backgrounds, etc. under Item 401 was required.  Subsequent to the filing of our Form 10-K for the period ended February 28, 2010 we filed a Form 8-K on August 27, 2010 announcing our employment of John Spoonhower and Margy Lydon and providing both a description of their backgrounds in accordance with  Item 401 and disclosure of their employment agreements.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities, page 21

8.
It appears you issued securities in reliance on the exemption from registration provided for in Regulation D, including the securities issued in connection with your acquisition of SensiVida Medical.  Please tell us when you intend to file the Form D required by that regulation.

 
Response: We have relied on Regulation S and Section 4(2) for the recent sales of our securities, including the sale of our Series A preferred convertible stock.

General and Administrative Expenses, page 21

9.
With a view toward disclosure, please tell us why your disclosure on page 40 indicates that you are disputing the amount you owe to Dr. Alfano, given that your disclosure on page 36 indicates otherwise.

Response: As indicated on page 36, amounts accrued have been recorded as pursuant to the terms of Dr. Alfano's prior consulting agreement but Dr. Alfano has signed an agreement to forebear collection on his consulting agreement in exchange for the unlimited right to convert what is owed to him into our Company's common stock at $2.50 per share.  Dr. Alfano has apparently ignored this agreement and filed a complaint seeking cash compensation under his consulting agreement.  We have not filed an answer to his complaint at this stage of the litigation and instead have filed a motion to dismiss his complaint.
 


Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 22

10.
Please file as exhibits the instruments governing the preferred stock and warrants referenced in this section.

 
Response:  We have filed as exhibits the instruments governing the preferred stock and warrants referenced in this section.

Note 10 – Acquisition of SensiVida Medical Systems, Inc., page 44

11.
We note that on March 3, 2009 you completed the acquisition of SensiVida Medical Systems in exchange for 3.3 million shares of your common stock.  Please explain to us why you are considered the acquiring entity under paragraphs 805-10-55-12 through 55-15 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

 
Response: We are considered the acquiring entity under paragraphs 805-10-55-12 because the relative overwhelming majority of voting rights in the business combination was retained by the original acquiring owners.

12.
Further to the above, we note that in connection with the acquisition, you have allocated $2.8 million to 'technology with patents pending approval.'  Please explain to us in greater detail how you determined the value of the technology.  Describe the significant underlying technology and the status of its development.  Explain how the technology meets the criteria of Topic 805-20-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.  Further explain how your valuation of the assets complies with Topic 805-20-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

 
Response: On March 3, 2009, we acquired all the assets and liabilities of SensiVida Medical Systems, Inc.  We tendered 3,333,333 shares of our common stock with an approximate value of $2,751,000.  The approximate share price of our common stock was $0.825, the weighted average price of our common stock 10 days before and after the consummation of the transaction.  As per Codification 805-20-25, the acquirer’s application of the recognition principle as part of applying the acquisition method, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed must be part of what the acquirer and the acquiree exchanged in the business combination transaction.  We completed our valuation of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values as follows:

Approximate Value of Shares Tendered
        $ 2,751,332  
Approximate Value of Liabilities
   Assumed -   Note Payable
  $ 49,828          
Officer Loan
    5,524          
Accrued Expense
    2,437       57,789  
Total Payment & Obligations Assumed
            2,809,121  
Less, Cash (Only Remaining Asset-
   Other Than Patents Pending)
            (558 )
Net Value of Technology of Patents
   Pending Approval (After Appraisal)
          $ 2,808,563  
 


 
In accordance with Codification 805-20-30, “[t]he acquirer shall measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their acquisition - date fair values”.  Accordingly, we engaged the services of an independent valuation firm to estimate the fair value of SensiVida Medical Systems, Inc.  The discounted cash flow method was used to value the business or technology since the technology was the only asset of consequence, and we based this method on our company's ability to generate future cash flows.  Management provided the financial projections. Discount rates were obtained by the valuation firm for companies in appropriate stage and technical fields. Based on the valuation report, the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed ranged from $591,000 to $7,740,000. Upon assuming a number of probability-weighted scenarios and further adjustments for industry costs of sales and operations, an enterprise value of $3.9M was calculated by the valuation firm. Quoting from the report:

“Based on the assumptions and limiting conditions as described in this report, as well as the facts and circumstances as of the valuation date, I conclude that the fair market value of 100% of the common equity of SensiVida Medical Systems, Inc. is $3,800,000 on a marketable, controlling interest as of March 3, 2009.”

Due to the wide range in valuation amount and uncertainty of realizing the probabilities employed in the valuation, we used the fair value of the common stock issued, $2,751,000, since it approximates the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The underlying technology is in the area of minimally-invasive diagnostics brought in through the acquisition of SensiVida Medical Systems. It is described in Part 1, Item 1. “Business section” and “Our Products” subsection of the Form 10-K. The intellectual property relating to the $2.8M allocation is described in the “Intellectual Property” Section of our Form 10-K: “We have secured a worldwide exclusive license to 8 minimally-invasive in vivo diagnostics patent applications, including a number of PCT and European filings (see Patent list). In addition to allergy testing and glucose monitoring using microlancet technologies, coagulation monitoring for patients on blood thinners (e.g. Coumadin), cholesterol and other blood chemistry. There can be no assurance, however, that any pending patent applications will issue as patents, or if patents do issue, that the claims will be sufficiently broad to protect what the Company believes to be its proprietary rights.”

The corresponding patent portfolio for our minimally-invasive diagnostic technology is listed in the “Our Patents” section of the Form 10-K:
 
 

 
“Minimally Invasive Allergy Testing Systems and Methods”, PCT/US2006/026774, US Non-provisional app. 11/995,366 (notice of allowance received from USPTO)
 
“Minimally Invasive Allergy Testing System with Coated Allergens”, PCT/US2007/061604
 
“Allergy Testing Cartridge with Coated Allergens”, PCT/US2007/061601
 
“Compact Minimally Invasive Biomedical Monitor”, US Non-provisional app. 11/754,987, PCT/US08/65024
 
“Blood Monitoring Systems and Methods”, US Non-provisional app. 11/279,290, European application EP 06 749 731.3
 
“MEMS Interstitial Prothrombin Time Test”, US Non-Provisional app. 12/189,509
 
Patents filed by and assigned to SensiVida Medical Technologies:
 
“Improved Compact Minimally Invasive Biomedical Monitor Using Image Processing”, US Provisional 61/276116
 
“Remote Automated Skin Testing System”, US Provisional filed 5/3/2010
 
Status of the product development work may be summarized by these key points:
 
·  
Working prototypes of the allergy test product in place
 
·  
Designation of the SensiVida allergy test as a “non-significant” risk product
 
·  
Proof-of-concept clinical tests performed under the WIRB
   
·  
Side-by-side comparative clinical studies show SensiVida's test:
 
1.  
significantly reduces reaction extent (by 9x)
 
2.  
significantly reduces patient skin surface required for test (by 25x)
 
3.  
reduces test-to-test variability (by 3x or more)
 
4.  
reduces total test time and time to document results (2-3x)
 
over the standard “gold standard” Skin Prick Test”
 
·  
Partnerships with regulatory and advanced product development companies
 
·  
Extensive survey of payers/HMO's representing 100M “covered lives” resulted in full consensus that SensiVida's allergy would be reimbursed using existing CPT code for Skin Prick Test at the same cost per test ($7).
 
·  
Notice of allowance received from USPTO for SensiVida's seminal (primary) patent covering its allergy test

      2,110,286  
   Total Peter Katevatis
  $ 2,157,187  

As disclosed in the 10-K page 36 fifth paragraph, on March 23, 2009 Mr. Katevatis exercised his option to convert all outstanding salary and fees accrued through November 3, 2008 along with the termination of his employment agreement and anti-dilution rights in exchange for 1,172,510, shares of our common stock, thereby reducing accrued liabilities by $2,157,187 (his accrued salary and professional fees).
 


 
Item 15, Exhibits…, page 53

20.
It appears you have amended your certificate of incorporation since the December 9, 2004 date mentioned here.  Please file a complete and updated copy of the certificate of incorporation as required by Item 601(b)(3)(i) of Regulation S-K.

 
Response:  We have filed a complete and updated copy of our certificate of incorporation as an exhibit to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 as required by Item 601(b)(3)(i) of Regulation S-K.

21.  
Please file the consulting agreement dated July 3, 2009 with John Condemi as an exhibit.

 
Response:  Mr. Condemi's consulting agreement dated July 3, 2009 was filed as exhibit 10.1 to our Form 8-K filed July 6, 2009.  Accordingly, we have referenced this exhibit in our amendment to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 and indicated that it was previously filed as an exhibit to our Form 8-K file July 6, 2009.




Exhibit Index, page 55

22.
In future filings, for each exhibit you incorporate by reference please provide the disclosure required by Item 10(d) of Regulation S-K including, without limitation, identification of each specific document and filing where the exhibit is located.

 
Response: In future filings for each exhibit incorporated by reference we will provide the disclosure required by Item 10(d) of Regulation S-K.

Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 31, 2010

23.
We note the disclosure on page 11 that you amended your certificate of incorporation on March 1, 2010, which was prior to the date on which you filed a definitive information statement related to those amendments.  Given this, please tell us how you complied with Exchange Act Rule 14c-2.  Also, provide us your analysis of whether you were required to file a Form 8-K pursuant to Item 5.07 reporting the action that was taken by consent of shareholders.  Refer to Instruction 2 to Item 5.07 of Form 8-K.

 
Response:  The reference on page 11 to the March 1, 2010 filing date was incorrect.  The amendment to our certificate of incorporation to authorize the Series A convertible preferred stock was filed after the Schedule 14C became effective.  Accordingly, we do not believe that a duplicative 8-K filing was required in addition to the Schedule 14C.

24.
It appears you had already offered and sold Series A convertible preferred stock when you filed your definitive information statement.  Please tell us how you evaluated the extent of disclosure required in that document regarding the offering you were conducting and how that document addressed such required disclosure.

 
Response:  The sale of the Series A convertible preferred stock prior to the filing of the definitive Schedule 14C was made to an existing shareholder of a large amount of our common stock and was the result of a negotiation between the former President of our company, Peter Katevatis, and the shareholder.  Mr. Katevatis believed, incorrectly, that the Company had authorized Series A convertible preferred stock.  The shareholder was apprised of the error and has executed the subscription document executed by all the Series A convertible preferred stockholders following the definitive Schedule 14C becoming effective.

Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures, page 16
