Nephros, Inc. Presenting at International
Renal Conferences


NEW YORK, June 1, 2005 – Nephros, Inc. (AMEX: NEP), announced today that it will be presenting its line of proprietary renal products at two international renal conferences in June 2005. Nephros believes that these conferences provide valuable central forums where Nephros can continue to build product recognition and inform the renal industry about the marked benefits of its therapy products.

From June 4-7, Nephros will be displaying its products at the European Renal Association / European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA/EDTA) Congress in Istanbul, Turkey. As the largest renal industry conference in Europe, each year the ERA/EDTA Congress draws physicians, administrators, nurses and other renal industry participants from around the world. The 2004 ERA/EDTA Congress in Lisbon, Portugal drew over 5,000 delegates, with over 1,100 attendees registering at the Nephros display.

From June 9-11, Nephros will display at the British Renal Society Conference in Manchester, UK, a forum drawing physicians from across the United Kingdom, including many of the physicians with whom Nephros is currently working in this territory. Nephros also displayed at this conference last year in Harrogate, UK.

A calendar of additional renal industry events at which Nephros will be participating in 2005 is available at Nephros’s website, www.nephros.com.

About Nephros, Inc.

Nephros, Inc., headquartered in New York, is a medical device company developing and marketing products designed to improve the quality of life for the End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patient, while addressing the critical financial and clinical needs of the care provider. ESRD is a disease state characterized by the irreversible loss of kidney function. Nephros believes that its products remove a range of harmful substances more effectively, and more cost-effectively, than existing treatment methods; particularly with respect to substances known collectively as “middle molecules,” due to their molecular weight, that have been found to contribute to such conditions as carpal tunnel syndrome, dialysis related amyloidosis, degenerative bone disease, and ultimately, to mortality in the ESRD patient.
