Streetinvesting.com is the leading online financial newsletter community with thousands of investors from around the world. Our goal is to bring our theories and techniques to investors seeking a different and unique approach to investment ideas. We have a research team that has been built upon the premise of finding companies that we feel may interest investors looking for that unique and tactical edge.

Please visit www.Streetinvesting.com for the full report, additional research and related articles on the company mentioned herein.

Wall Street, still under the enchantment of takeover activities, hailed the bulls' optimism throughout the sessions of last week, but keeps a vigilant standpoint for this Monday as more second quarter earnings are due to be released. Even as the Dow Jones Industrial closed onto the 14,000 cap, stocks oscillated to the different economic reading of the day signaling that investors were excited with some big merger news and rumors and yet quite anxious of future inflation reports. The financial headlines have been flooded by a multi-billion dollar buzz throwing Vodafone and Verizon in the limelight and creating an adrenaline drive among investors. Protein Polymer Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: PPTI) closed at $ 0.18 with a trading volume of 199,766 last Friday.

Our dyed-in-the-wool research squad has been scrutinizing the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board putting much effort in studying some of the potential companies making the news. Protein Polymer Technologies Inc. caught our attention and we decided to put them forward in an attempt to evaluate their progression in the third quarter.

On Monday July 16th, 2007, Protein Polymer Technologies Inc., a biotechnology device company that is a pioneer in protein design and synthesis, made a press release, announcing that they have entered into an agreement with a multinational biotechnology device company. According to the agreement, PPTI will provide genetically engineered protein polymer biomaterials for use in the prevention of post-surgical adhesions. 'This agreement further demonstrates our core competency; developing novel protein polymer biomaterials for challenging medical applications such as the prevention of surgical adhesions,' said William N. Plamondon, Chief Executive Officer of PPTI. 'Additionally, it furthers the progression of our plan to establish relationships with partners that will ultimately market the products. This relationship adds to the six others we have in product development which includes our license agreements with Spine Wave Inc. and Genencor International Inc.'

Post-operative adhesions, unintended attachments between distinct tissues and organs in the body, occur after most surgical procedures. Most notable are the complications that arise from adhesions after abdominal and gynecological surgery. Studies have shown that between 55% and 100% of patients developed adhesions within six months of surgery. In severe cases, adhesions can cause pain, obstructions and infertility. More than 300,000 Americans are hospitalized each year at a cost of $1.3 billion to undergo surgery to remove adhesions. PPTI believes its protein polymer materials can improve the outcome of abdominal and gynecological surgery by substantially reducing adhesions.

PPTI is also in discussions with several U.S. and international biotechnology and medical device companies, which are evaluating PPTI's surgical sealant and drug delivery product applications. These products are intended to aid in the closure of surgical incisions and tissue trauma reducing, for example, the incidence of post-operative bleeding and the delivery locally of therapeutic agents. 'We have been successful here because of the competencies we've developed in manufacturing products, supporting clinical trials, and engineering application and delivery systems that support the biomaterials platform that we own,' said Joe Cappello, Chief Technology Officer of PPTI.

Protein Polymer Technologies Inc. is a biotechnology company that discovers and develops innovative therapeutic devices to improve medical and surgical outcomes. The Company focuses on developing technology and products to be used for soft tissue augmentation, tissue adhesives and sealants, wound healing support and drug delivery devices. Protein Polymer Technologies' proprietary protein-based biomaterials are uniquely tailored to optimize clinical performance and contain no human or animal components that could potentially transmit or cause disease. The company is headquartered in San Diego, California.

With numerous essential economic data, including inflation and housing sector, due to come out throughout the course of this week, analysts predict a stimulating market sentiment that could push the bulls further into conquered territories or bring the bears back. Streetinvesting.com will stay focused on our goal to provide future news and developments on Protein Polymer Technologies Inc., as we believe some interesting events or announcements will come forth.
