NOTE 1- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

History and Nature of Business

Vystar Corporation (“Vystar”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is the creator and exclusive owner of the innovative technology to produce Vytex® Natural Rubber Latex ("NRL"). This technology reduces antigenic protein in natural rubber latex products to virtually undetectable levels in both liquid NRL and finished latex products. Vystar intends to introduce Vytex NRL, its new “ultra low protein” natural rubber latex, throughout the worldwide marketplace that uses NRL or latex substitutes as a component of manufactured products. Natural rubber latex or latex substitutes are used in an extensive range of products including balloons, textiles, footwear and clothing (threads), adhesives, foams, furniture, carpet, paints, coatings, protective equipment, sporting equipment, and, especially health care products such as condoms, surgical and exam gloves. The Company produces Vytex through toll manufacturing and licensing agreements and has started introducing Vytex NRL into the supply channels with targeted marketing campaigns directed to the end users. During 2008, the Company signed an agreement with Revertex (Malaysia) for the production of Vytex NRL. Revertex is a non-exclusive, toll manufacturer for Vystar. In March 2010, the Company signed a licensing agreement for the production of Vytex NRL with GrupoAgroindustrialOccidente's "Pica de Hule Natural," located in Guatemala.

Vystar LLC, the predecessor to the Company, was formed February 2, 2000, as a Georgia limited liability company. The Company’s operations under the LLC entity were focused substantially on the research, development and testing of the Vytex NRL process, as well as attaining intellectual property rights. In 2003, the Company reorganized as Vystar Corporation, a Georgia corporation, at which time all assets and liabilities of the limited liability company became assets and liabilities of Vystar Corporation, including all intellectual property rights, patents and trademarks.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements may be condensed or omitted. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of Vystar management, these financial statements contain all adjustments (which comprise only normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Certain financial instruments potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. These financial instruments consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. Cash held in operating accounts in many cases exceeds the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insurance limits. While we monitor cash balances in our operating accounts on a regular basis and adjust the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail. To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to our cash; however, we can provide no assurances that access to our cash will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The valuation of inventory requires the Company to estimate net realizable value. Inventory is written down for estimated obsolescence to the lesser of cost or market value.

Loss Per Share

Because the Company reported a net loss for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, common stock equivalents, including stock options and warrants, were anti-dilutive; therefore, the amounts reported for basic and dilutive loss per share were the same. Excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share were options to purchase 3,883,333 shares and 3,485,000 shares of common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Warrants to purchase 2,110,000 shares and 2,523,409 shares of common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were also excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue when the following four criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) shipment or delivery has occurred; (3) the price is fixed or determinable and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized at the time product is shipped and title passes to the customer.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other financial instruments (such as accrued expenses and other current liabilities) included in the accompanying balance sheets approximates their fair value principally due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date that these financial statements were issued. We are not aware of any significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on our financial statements.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow since its inception. Further, at September 30, 2010, the accumulated deficit amounted to approximately $13,388,689.

Vystar was in the development stage for most of 2009, transitioning to the operational stage in the final quarter of 2009. At September 30, 2010, the Company had cash totaling $385,298. Management plans to finance future operations through the use of cash on hand, increased revenues and raising additional capital through a private placement or other equity or debt offering and stock warrant exercises from existing shareholders. As the Company’s product continues to gain market acceptance, the Company expects sales in the fourth quarter of 2010 and 2011 to continually increase. The Company also has been engaged in raising additional capital through a private placement and stock warrant exercises from existing shareholders. Year-to-date through September 30, 2010, the Company has raised capital of $560,000 and $428,500 through the private placement and stock warrant exercises, respectively, with an additional $18,125 raised from stock warrant exercises after September 30, 2010 through the date that these financial statements were issued. The Company has engaged two investment advisory firms and plans to raise at least $2,000,000 from a private placement of equity or debt during 2010. If no additional funding is completed, we estimate that we will have sufficient cash to operate through the end of 2010. In view of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to secure additional financing necessary until the Company is able to generate adequate funds from operations. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally from the sale of equity securities. While the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining the necessary capital to support its operations, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or other financing under commercially reasonable terms and conditions, or at all. Furthermore, if the Company issues equity or debt securities to raise additional funds, existing shareholders may experience dilution and the new equity or debt securities it issues may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of existing shareholders. In addition, if the Company raises additional funds through collaboration, licensing or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to products or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable. If the Company does not achieve its revenue projections and cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, the Company will not be able to continue as a going concern and execute the Company’s business plan, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressure or unanticipated customer requirements. Any of these events would adversely affect the Company’s ability to achieve the Company’s sales goals, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of assets or the amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 4 – PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

Patents represent legal and other fees associated with the registration of patents. The Company has two patents and two provisional patent submissions with the United States Patent and Trade Office (USPTO), as well as an international PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) patent.

The Company has incurred legal and other fees associated with its application to the USPTO for trademark protection for “Vystar”, “Vytex”, and “Created by Nature. Recreated by Science.” during 2010 and 2009.

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES

There is no income tax benefit recorded for the losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 since management has determined that the realization of the net deferred tax asset is not assured and has created a valuation allowance for the entire amount of the net deferred tax asset.

NOTE 6 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

In April 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors and shareholders authorized the number of preferred shares to be increased from 10,000,000 shares to 15,000,000 shares and the number of common shares from 25,000,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares.

Common Stock and Warrants

On November 2, 2009, the Company began an offering to sell up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock through a private placement memorandum. Under the terms of the private placement memorandum, the Company is offering up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share. For each two (2) shares of common stock purchased, the investor will receive a warrant to purchase a share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share exercisable for one year from issuance and an additional warrant to purchase a share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.25 per share exercisable for two years from issuance. The Company has the right to increase the offering up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock and 2,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock. In May 2010, the Company modified the private placement memorandum by changing the price of the common stock to $1.25 per share. The exercise price of the warrants also was modified to $1.00 per share if exercised by December 31, 2010. If the warrants are not exercised by December 31, 2010, then the price per share reverts back to the $1.50 per share or $3.25 per share, respectively. A total of an additional 129,000 shares of common stock and 129,000 warrants were issued to investors who participated in this private placement in 2009 prior to the modification of terms.

Additionally, the Company had recorded $84,427 in amortization of deferred compensation expense during the six month period ended June 30, 2010, related to 2009 common stock and warrants issuances for services.

NOTE 7 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Generally accepted accounting principles require share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values at the date of grant, net of estimated forfeitures.

Options

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant-date fair value of awards granted during 2009 and 2010. The following assumptions were used:

Expected Dividend Yield – because the Company does not currently pay dividends, the expected dividend yield is zero;

Expected Volatility in Stock Price – because trading in the Company’s stock began late in 2009, there was insufficient data to project the Company’s future volatility and instead the expected volatility of similar public entities (including companies engaged in the manufacture and/or distribution of medical, surgical and healthcare supplies) was considered with expected volatility ranging from 23.26% - 39.17%;

Risk-free Interest Rate – reflects the average rate on a United States Treasury bond with maturity equal to the expected term of the option, ranging from 1.32 – 3.00%; and

Expected Life of Awards – because the Company has had minimal experience with the exercise of options or warrants for use in determining the expected life for each award, the simplified method was used to calculate an expected life based on the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the stock award.

The Company recorded $86,868 and $65,440 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $252,944 and $124,418 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to employee and board member stock options. As of September 30, 2010, $912,304 of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested share-based awards remains to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.4 years.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2010 (unaudited)

During 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a stock option plan (the “Plan”) and authorized up to 4,000,000 shares to be issued under the Plan. In April 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase in the number of shares to be issued under the Plan to 10,000,000 shares, which was also approved by the Company’s shareholders, and to include the independent Board members in the plan in lieu of continuing the previous practice of granting warrants each quarter to independent board members for services. At September 30, 2010, there were 4,012,500 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan. The Plan permits stock options granted to employees to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Incentive Stock Options”), although to date no Incentive Stock Options have been granted. All options granted under the Plan that are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options are deemed to be non-qualified options. Stock options are typically granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, typically vest over periods up to 4 years and are typically exercisable up to 10 years. In the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company issued a total of 600,000 non-qualified stock options to certain employees that will only vest upon achievement of certain financial targets during 2010-2012. No expense has yet been recorded through September 30, 2010 for these options as 2010 targets are not expected to be met.

The weighted-average assumptions used in the option pricing model for stock option grants were as follows for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

	2010			2009
Expected Dividend Yield		-			-
Expected Volatility in Stock Price		39.23	%		38.15	%

Warrants

Warrants are issued to third parties as payment for services and in conjunction with the issuance of common stock. The fair value of each common stock warrant issued for services is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for warrants granted during the nine months ended September 30 2010 and 2009:

	2010			2009

All of the warrants vested immediately. The fair value of the warrants was calculated as of the date of the grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model and assumptions as detailed above. The total amount of the fair value was $14,210 and was recorded as stock based compensation expense when vesting occurred.

NOTE 8 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Climax Global Energy

During 2005 and 2006, the Company advanced cash and made payments on behalf of Climax Global Energy, Inc. (“Climax”), a development stage company controlled by the Company’s former CEO, resulting in a note. On August 15, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Climax which specified the repayment terms of the note receivable. The significant terms were established as follows: (A) the note is non-interest bearing, (B) a $25,000 payment to be made on or before September 30, 2008, (C) equal monthly payments of $5,000 will commence in October 2008, and (D) the note shall be due and payable in full no later than January 31, 2010. In 2009 all payments due under the agreement had been received by the Company and the note was paid in full in the first quarter of 2010.

Officers and Directors

On March 31, 2009, the Company’s four independent directors each received warrants, valued at approximately $12,000, to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.63. The warrants are exercisable in whole or in part at or before March 31, 2019 and vested immediately.

As previously discussed in Note 7, during April 2009 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the inclusion of the independent Board members in the Company’s stock option plan in lieu of continuing the previous practice of granting warrants each quarter to independent board members. Each Board member was granted options to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.63. Vesting occurs at the end of each complete calendar quarter served as an independent board member of the Company at a rate of 20,000 shares each. The options are exercisable in whole or in part before September 30, 2019.

The options granted to one of the Board members were forfeited in September 2009 due to resignation from the Board. That member returned to the Board in September 2009 and was granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.63. The terms are as discussed in the above paragraph and the options are exercisable in whole or in part before September 30, 2019.

Other

At December 31, 2009, the Company had accrued severance of $81,250 payable to the Company’s former CFO, Glenn Smotherman. Mr. Smotherman has agreed to payment of this liability beginning at the earlier of payment in full of the Climax receivable or the Company’s achievement of specific sales goals. The payments on this liability began in January 2010 and will be satisfied in 24 equal monthly payments. The current and long-term portions of this liability at September 30, 2010 were $40,626 and $10,153, respectively.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

Vystar LLC, the predecessor to the Company, was formed February 2, 2000, as a Georgia limited liability company by Travis W. Honeycutt. The Company’s operations under the LLC entity were focused substantially on the research, development and testing of the Vytex® Natural Rubber Latex ("NRL") process, as well as attaining intellectual property rights. In 2003, the Company reorganized as Vystar Corporation, a Georgia corporation, at which time all assets and liabilities of the limited liability company became assets and liabilities of Vystar Corporation, including all intellectual property rights, patents and trademarks.

We are the creator and exclusive owner of the innovative technology to produce Vytex NRL. This technology reduces antigenic protein in natural rubber latex products to virtually undetectable levels in both liquid NRL and finished latex products. We have started to introduce Vytex NRL, our new “ultra low protein” natural rubber latex, throughout the worldwide marketplace that uses NRL or latex substitutes as a component of manufactured products. Natural rubber latex is used in an extensive range of products including balloons, textiles, footwear and clothing (threads), adhesives, foams, furniture, carpet, paints, coatings, protective equipment, sporting equipment, and especially health care products such as condoms, surgical and exam gloves. We produce Vytex through toll manufacturing and licensing agreements and have started introducing Vytex NRL into the supply channels with aggressive, targeted marketing campaigns directed to the end users.

We are no longer a development stage company, having transitioned to the operating stage during the last quarter of 2009. Our primary focus now is increasing market-acceptance for Vytex NRL and, accordingly, increasing sales. With this change in our status, we expect that our financial condition and results of operations will undergo substantial change from what we experienced as a development stage company. In addition to recording both revenue and expense from product sales, we expect to incur increased costs for sales and marketing expenses. Accordingly, the financial condition and results of operations reflected in our historical financial statements are not expected to be indicative of our future financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As such, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. By their nature, these estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Our management reviews its estimates on an on-going basis. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and our understanding of what we believe to be reasonable that might occur in the future considering available information. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and material effects on our operating results and financial position may result. Furthermore, for a discussion of our most critical accounting policies, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010 with the Three Months Ended September 30, 2009

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $217,580 and $5,673, respectively. During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, we offered introductory pricing to customers to partially offset the costs they incurred in preparation and startup costs associated with introducing Vytex into their manufacturing processes which generated the negative gross margin in the quarter. We expect that positive gross margins will occur in the fourth quarter of 2010 and forward.

	$	831,011	$	576,065	$	254,946			44.3	%

Our operating expenses were $831,011 and $576,065 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for an increase of $254,946 or 44.3%. In the three months ended September 30, 2010, $86,868 was recorded for stock-based compensation as well as an additional $338,576 for amortization of deferred compensation. The deferred compensation expense represents the amortized fair value of stock and warrants issued for services to non-employees. This compares with $65,440 for stock-based compensation in 2009 for the same period and $40,750 for amortization of deferred compensation in that period. The deferred compensation expense for 2009 represents the amortized fair value of warrants issued for services to non-employees. The stock-based compensation charges to operations in 2010 and 2009 were primarily for stock options granted under our stock option plan to executive officers and were made so that their interests would be aligned with those of shareholders, providing incentive to improve Company performance on a long-term basis. Grants of warrants were also made to third parties for various services rendered to preserve operating capital. Amortization of deferred compensation is recorded in general and administrative expenses. Stock-based compensation expense is included in sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the amount of stock-based compensation included in sales and marketing was $15,794 and in general and administrative was $71,074. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, the amount of stock-based compensation included in sales and marketing was $15,331 and in general and administrative was $49,686.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, sales and marketing expenses were $183,593 and $156,440, respectively. The increase of $27,153 is primarily due to in 2010 having one additional full-time sales professional and increases in travel and other related sales activities. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and support costs for sales and marketing personnel, professional services, promotional, marketing and related activities.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, general and administrative expenses were $627,801 and $352,412, respectively. The increase of $275,389 is primarily composed of increased costs of being a public company and relate primarily to investor and public relations, and insurance cost increases, as well as the increase in amortization of deferred compensation for stock and warrants issued for services and increase in stock-based compensation expense. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and support costs for management and administrative staff, and for other general and administrative costs, including professional fees related to accounting, finance, and legal services as well as other operating expenses.

Included in our operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $19,617 for research and development expenses compared to $67,213 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 for a decrease of $47,596. The decrease is primarily due to the completion of many research and development projects in 2009 with more focus in 2010 on sales and marketing and less on research and development activities. Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation for employees and contractors engaged in internal research and product development activities, laboratory operations, and related expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2010, consisted of $618 of interest income on cash deposits net of interest expense of $572. This compares to $1,770 of interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 net of $992 interest expense. Additionally, recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2009 is the release of a provision for a related party note receivable of $90,205.

Net Loss

Net loss was $903,736 and $484,984 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, an increase of $418,752 in the net loss.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 with the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009

Revenues

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $654,291 and $17,581, respectively. During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, we offered introductory pricing to customers to partially offset the costs they incurred in preparation and startup costs associated with introducing Vytex into their manufacturing processes which generated the negative gross margin in the quarter. In August 2010, the Company filed a Form 8-K which included certain estimated financial results for the second half of 2010. As noted in that presentation, one requirement to achieving the estimates was the completion of a financing event of at least $2 million. Through November 12, 2010, the Company has not completed such financing and as a result, will not meet those projections for 2010. Achieving the projections for 2011 will be dependent on, among other factors, completion of an adequate financing event before the end of 2010.

Our operating expenses were $2,326,953 and $1,687,291 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for an increase of $639,662 or 37.9%. In the nine months ended September 30, 2010, $252,944 was recorded for stock-based compensation as well as an additional $637,140 for amortization of deferred compensation. The deferred compensation expense represents the amortized fair value of stock and warrants issued for services to non-employees. This compares with $171,816 for stock-based compensation in 2009 for the same period and $59,134 for amortization of deferred compensation in that period. The deferred compensation expense for 2009 represents the amortized fair value of warrants issued for services to non-employees. The stock-based compensation charges to operations in 2010 and 2009 were primarily for stock options granted under our Stock Option Plan to executive officers and were made so that their interests would be aligned with those of shareholders, providing incentive to improve Company performance on a long-term basis. Grants of stock purchase warrants were also made to third parties for various services rendered. Amortization of deferred compensation is recorded in general and administrative expenses. Stock-based compensation expense is included in sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the amount of stock-based compensation included in sales and marketing was $46,970 and in general and administrative was $205,974. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the amount of stock-based compensation included in sales and marketing was $39,937, and in general and administrative was $131,879.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, sales and marketing expenses were $568,678 and $470,923, respectively. The increase of $97,755 is primarily due to in 2010 having one additional full-time sales professional, increases in travel and other related sales activities, including consulting services and promotional and advertising expenditures. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and support costs for sales and marketing personnel, professional services, promotional, marketing and related activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, general and administrative expenses were $1,709,130 and $1,021,062, respectively. The increase of $688,068 is primarily composed of increased costs of being a public company and relate primarily to investor and public relations, and insurance cost increases, as well as the increase in amortization of deferred compensation for stock and warrants issued for services and increase in stock-based compensation expense. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and support costs for management and administrative staff, and for other general and administrative costs, including professional fees related to accounting, finance, and legal services as well as other operating expenses.

Included in our operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $49,145 for research and development expenses compared to $195,306 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 for a decrease of $146,161. The decrease is primarily due to the completion of many research and development projects in 2009 with more focus in 2010 on sales and marketing and less on research and development activities. Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation for employees and contractors engaged in internal research and product development activities, laboratory operations, and related expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, consisted of $2,664 of interest income on cash deposits net of interest expense of $1,531. This compares to $12,006 of interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 net of $1,712 interest expense and the $120,205 reversal of a provision for a related party note receivable.

Net Loss

Net loss was $2,516,567 and $1,554,164 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, an increase of $962,403 in the net loss.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2010, we had current assets of $987,548, including $385,298 in cash, and $656,314 of current liabilities, or working capital of $331,234. We use working capital to finance our ongoing operations and since those operations do not currently cover all of our operating costs, managing working capital is essential to our company’s future success.

Management plans to finance future operations through the use of cash on hand, increased revenues and raising additional capital through a private placement or other equity or debt offering and stock warrant exercises from existing shareholders. As the Company’s product continues to gain market acceptance, the Company expects sales in the fourth quarter of 2010 and 2011 to continually increase. The Company also has been engaged in raising additional capital through a private placement and stock warrant exercises from existing shareholders. Year-to-date through September 30, 2010, the Company has raised capital of $560,000 and $428,500 through the private placement and stock warrant exercises, respectively, with an additional $18,125 raised from stock warrant exercises after September 30, 2010 through the date that these financial statements were issued. The Company has engaged two investment advisory firms and plans to raise at least $2,000,000 from a private placement of equity or debt during 2010. If no additional funding is completed, we estimate that we will have sufficient cash to operate through the end of 2010. In view of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to secure additional financing necessary until the Company is able to generate adequate funds from operations. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally from the sale of equity securities. While the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining the necessary capital to support its operations, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or other financing under commercially reasonable terms and conditions, or at all. Furthermore, if the Company issues equity or debt securities to raise additional funds, existing shareholders may experience dilution and the new equity or debt securities it issues may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of existing shareholders. In addition, if the Company raises additional funds through collaboration, licensing or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to products or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable. If the Company does not achieve its revenue projections and cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, the Company will not be able to continue as a going concern and execute the Company’s business plan, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressure or unanticipated customer requirements. Any of these events would adversely affect the Company’s ability to achieve the Company’s sales goals, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of assets or the amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Sources and Uses of Cash

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, net cash used by operations was $1,503,693 and $1,605,004, respectively. The negative cash flow for nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily the result of the $2,516,567 net loss. This was reduced by several non-cash charges, primarily the stock-based compensation charges of $252,944, stock and warrants issued for services of $54,808, and $637,140 for amortization of deferred compensation. The negative cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 resulted primarily from the net loss of $1,554,164 reduced by non-cash charges related to stock-based compensation expense of $221,200 and amortization of deferred compensation of $59,134.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $120,344 compared to net cash provided by investing activities for the same period of 2009 of $783,136. Cash provided in 2010 was related to the proceeds from a related party note receivable offset partially by legal and other costs associated with our patents and trademarks. In 2009, we received the proceeds from a maturing certificate of deposit of $750,000 and $45,000 in proceeds from a related party note receivable, offset slightly by costs of $11,864 associated with our patents and trademarks.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was $988,500 and $586,200, respectively, representing proceeds from the sale of common stock and common stock purchase warrants and the exercise of common stock purchase warrants.

Our future expenditures and capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including: the rate at which we can introduce and sell NRL to manufacturers; the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights; and market acceptance of our products and competing technological developments. We expect that we will incur in excess of $2.5 million of operating expenditures over the next 12 months including almost $1 million in personnel costs. As we expand our activities and operations, our cash requirements are expected to increase at a rate consistent with revenue growth after we have achieved sustained revenue generation.

We expect that our cash used in operations will continue to increase as a result of the following planned activities:

The addition of staff to our workforce as needs arise;

Increased spending for the expansion of our research and development efforts, including clinical trials, regulatory submissions, assistance with manufacturing trials and product enhancements;

Increased spending in marketing as our products are introduced into the marketplace;

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that may be reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; product development, introduction and acceptance; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not required.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(A)

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2010. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q has been appropriately recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to the reasonable assurance level.

(B)

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(C)

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

We have confidence in our internal controls and procedures. Nevertheless, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure procedures and controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors or intentional fraud. An internal control system, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of such internal controls are met. Further, the design of an internal control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all internal control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all our control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
