Strategic Diagnostics Inc.  a leading provider of antibody products and analytical test kits for the food safety and water quality markets, has launched the SDI eStore, an eCommerce initiative accessible through banner links on the company's web site at www.sdix.com.

The SDI eStore provides for "Express" and "Full Featured" shopping. U.S.-based customers now have faster product navigation and searching, links to information downloads and easy checkout of their eCart selections. The Express store is a limited offering of popular product selections and only allows transactions via credit card, while the Full Featured option is for SDI registered customers and provides a broader product menu with eCart checkout charged against a credit card or the customer's SDI open account. Customers have the ability to check the status of their order fulfillment online with links provided in automatically generated email messages.

The eStore System is available around the clock for order entry with the added ability during regular business hours to interact with SDI sales consultants via an Instant Messenger link from the "Contact Us" area of the store.

Commenting on the rollout, Matthew H. Knight, the Company's President and CEO, stated, "We believe that the eStore will help us realize two important goals for the Company: One, we want to significantly enhance the access that people have to information about our testing technologies. The eStore dramatically enhances the access to product and technical information across our entire portfolio. Two, we want to continue to do everything possible to improve our service. The electronic platform of an eStore is a great way to continually and cost-effectively deliver new services to our customers."
