DENVER and PARIS, July 19, 2010 - Corgenix Medical Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: CONX), a worldwide

today announced a broad strategic alliance. Terms of the agreement include:

    - Strategic Investment - ELITech will initially purchase 8,333,334 shares
      of Corgenix common shares at US$0.15 per share. ELITech is also
      committing to invest another US$750,000 in Corgenix common stock at
      the same price over the subsequent 12 months upon the successful
      completion by Corgenix of the two events specified below; warrants
      also issued at US$0.15 could potentially result in an additional
      US$1 million investment.
    - International Distribution - ELITech will become the master distributor
      for Corgenix outside of North America, significantly expanding global
      market coverage for Corgenix.
    - Product Development - Corgenix and ELITech will co-develop new tests by
      combining Corgenix products and technologies with several of the
      ELITech proprietary instrument systems.

"We are extremely pleased that the ELITech Group has chosen to establish
this relationship with Corgenix," said Douglass Simpson, Corgenix President
and Chief Executive Officer. "Investment in our company at a significant
premium to the current market price is evidence of ELITech's very strong
belief in Corgenix."

"This new collaboration confirms the vision and perspective of the
ELITech Group, which is driven by strategic partnerships with key players in
the in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) industry," said Pierre Debiais, the ELITech
Group's President. "The new relationship with Corgenix supports the Group's
commitment to the IVD market, demonstrates our strong desire to develop and
introduce new products, and significantly broadens our global position in
diagnostics."

"Adding Corgenix and the company's strength in immunology is a natural
expansion to ELITech's clinical chemistry and serology lines," continued
Pierre Debiais. "The partnership furthers ELITech's existing position in
unique microbiology products ranging from specific culture media and rapid
tests to multiplexing serology systems and infectious diseases molecular
diagnostics."

Philippe Veran, the ELITech Group's Financial Advisor, said the
transactions with Corgenix to continue ELITech's business expansion have been
made possible through the support of ELITech Group's core investors: NAXICAP

Further details of the transactions are included in an 8-K filing with
