Study confirms the system can be effectively administered by operators with no specialist background

NEW YORK, Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc. (Nasdaq: INBS) ("INBS" or the "Company"), a medical technology company delivering intelligent, rapid, non-invasive testing solutions, today announced the completion of its Usability Study for the Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System, supporting its FDA 510(k) submission for U.S. market clearance for detection of the opiate codeine.

The study was conducted in partnership with CenExel Clinical Research, Inc., following FDA guidance and ICH GCP (International Council for Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice) standards. The study was designed to evaluate how effectively operators could be trained to administer the Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System and how intuitively it could be used in a workplace setting. Fifteen operators participated in the study, with no requirement for specialist laboratory knowledge or prior experience with the system.

"An employer does not want to have to engage external specialist operators to administer a drug test. The simpler and more reliable the process, the stronger our position in the market," said Peter Passaris, Vice President of Product Development at Intelligent Bio Solutions. "This study was an opportunity to put that to the test in a structured, formal setting, and the outcome reinforces that our system can be picked up and used accurately by operators with no specialist background."

The Usability Study forms part of the Company's broader FDA 510(k) submission program, which also includes a Cut-off Study, Method Comparison Study, Interference Study, precision testing, and penetration testing. The Company remains on track to submit its 510(k) package in calendar H2 2026, as it progresses toward planned entry into the multi-billion-dollar U.S. drug screening market.
