US Nuclear Corp. (OTC PINK: UCLE), a leading manufacturer of advanced radiation detection instrumentation, recently announced the financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.

"Overall, we had an extremely productive and busy second quarter," commented Robert I. Goldstein, President, CEO, and Chairman of US Nuclear Corp. "While sales revenue was less than the same period the previous year, we captured important sales opportunities to add to our backlog, while working on finishing production of several substantial quantity orders, which are scheduled to ship in Q3 and Q4. Our cost of sales and operating expenses were higher this period due to the increase in cost of parts required and R&D expenses, but we made excellent progress and will see the results in Q3 and Q4."

US Nuclear Corp. is also focusing on adding chemical sensors to their DroneRAD product line, with a number of sales already made. Robert remarked, "The successful integration of chemical sensors to our DroneRAD product line, in addition to our radiation sensors, allows us to greatly broaden our market for DroneRAD applications to reach more potential customers with our phenomenal technology."
