On February 9, 2006, MEDTOX Scientific, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Issuer”), filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”), pursuant to section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) ^[1] and Rule 12d2-2(d) thereunder,^[2] to withdraw its common stock, $.15 per value (“Security”), from listing and registration on the American Stock Exchange LLC (“Amex”)

On February 7, 2006, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Issuer unanimously approved a resolution with the Security from Amex and to list the Security on the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”). The Issuer stated it believes Nasdaq will not only provide more recognition for the Issuer in the investment community, but increase liquidity and enhance value for shareholders. The Issuer stated that it anticipates the Security to trade on Nasdaq on February 16, 2006.

The Issuer stated in its application that it has met the requirements of Amex Rule 18 by complying with all applicable laws in effect in the State of Delaware, in which it is incorporated, and provided written notice of withdrawal to Amex.

The Issuer's application relates solely to withdrawal of the Security from listing on Amex and from registration under section 12(b) of the Act,^[3] and shall not affect its obligation to be registered under section 12(g) of the Act.^[4]
