These BactoBots(TM) are able to withstand swings in pH and temperature, they resist heavy metals, and are able to not only survive in the presence of other bacteria, but also thrive, acting like microscopic piranhas metabolizing anything organic they come in contact with. In order to prevent escape into the environment or theft of the technology, these BactoBots(TM) must be used in concert with Pilus Energy's GeRM keys.

Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB:TAUG) or ("Tauriga" or "the Company"), a diversified company focused on generating profitable revenues through license agreements and the development of a proprietary technology platform in the nanorobotics space, has today announced its strong commitment to the completion of its proposed acquisition with synthetic biology pioneer Pilus Energy LLC ("Pilus Energy"). Since November 25, 2013, when Tauriga announced the definitive agreement to acquire Pilus, the Company has experienced extreme volatility and downward pressure on its stock price. During this period the company has presented to and met with numerous institutional investors and experienced significant levels of interest from potential industry partners and customers throughout the world. The Company has been working diligently to establish a global presence through partnerships and international exclusive licenses, because its proprietary BactoBot technology can potentially address many global water related issues. While the recent share price volatility has been of concern to the company, the company still has 5 months to complete the requisite financing ("financing") and is encouraged by the interest level from the institutional investors. In addition the Company is hopeful that at least a portion of the financing will be non-dilutive, and management is working hard towards that end.
