Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
ORGANIZATION | NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION Biomerica, Inc. and its subsidiaries (which includes wholly-owned subsidiaries, Biomerica de Mexico and BioEurope GmbH) is a biomedical technology company that develops, patents, manufactures and markets advanced diagnostic and therapeutic products used at the point-of-care (physicians’ offices and over-the-counter through drugstores and online) and in hospital/clinical laboratories for detection and/or treatment of medical conditions and diseases. Our diagnostic test kits are used to analyze blood, urine, nasal, or fecal material from patients in the diagnosis of various diseases, food intolerances and other medical complications, or to measure the level of specific hormones, antibodies, antigens, or other substances, which may exist in the human body in extremely small concentrations. The Company’s products are designed to enhance the health and well-being of people, while reducing total healthcare costs. Our primary focus is the research, development, commercialization and in certain cases regulatory approval, of patented, diagnostic-guided therapy (“DGT”) products to treat gastrointestinal diseases, such as irritable bowel syndrome (“IBS”), and other inflammatory diseases. These products are directed at chronic inflammatory illnesses that are widespread and common, and as such address very large markets. Our inFoods® IBS product uses a simple blood sample and is designed to identify patient-specific foods that, when removed from the diet, may alleviate IBS symptoms such as pain, bloating, diarrhea, and constipation. Instead of broad and difficult to manage dietary restrictions, the inFoods® IBS product works by identifying specific foods that may be causing an abnormally high immune response in the patient. A food identified as positive, which is causing the abnormal immune response in the patient, is simply removed from the diet to help alleviate IBS symptoms. Our existing medical diagnostic products are sold worldwide primarily in two markets: 1) clinical laboratories and 2) point-of-care (physicians’ offices and over-the-counter drugstores like Walmart and CVS Pharmacy). The diagnostic test kits are used to analyze blood, urine, nasal, or fecal specimens from patients in the diagnosis of various diseases, food intolerances, and other medical complications, by measuring or detecting the existence and/or level of specific bacteria, hormones, antibodies, antigens, or other substances, which may exist in a patient’s body, stools, or blood, often in extremely small concentrations. Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, in March 2020, we began selling these COVID-19 related diagnostic tests during fiscal 2021, and we experienced significant revenues from such sales during fiscal 2021 and 2022 with lesser sales in fiscal 2023. Due to falling demand, there were no sales of our COVID-19 related products in fiscal 2024. As such, our COVID-19 product sales caused significant swings in our revenues over the past 4 years. The other existing products that contributed to our 2024 revenues are primarily focused on gastrointestinal diseases, food intolerances, and certain esoteric tests. These diagnostic test products utilize immunoassay technology. Most of our products are Conformite Europeenne (“CE”) marked and/or sold for diagnostic use where they are registered by each country’s regulatory agency. In addition, some products are cleared for sale in the United States by the FDA.
