LONDON (AFX) - Provexis PLC said it has entered into a long-term collaboration agreement with Unilever PLC to jointly develop a new concentrated format of its patented Fruitflow heart-health technology for application in Unilever's food product portfolio.

Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.

The partners plan to enter into a global licence arrangement for the technology.

Fruitflow is a patented natural extract from tomato which Provexis said has been shown in human trials to reduce the propensity for aberrant blood clotting that is typically associated with cardiovascular disease and which can lead to heart attack or stroke.

In 2005 the market for heart benefit foods was worth 4 bln usd globally, Provexis added.

Considering the growth potential this share has a target of about 8-10p in the medium tern and is a good buy at current levels

As usual, pls do ur own research.

I'm starting to accumulate these.....bit by bit...

I'm convinced that we are about to see a serious climb here between now and christmas....

Here we go....sharp rises now.....deal coming...?....big contract ?.....

Super increase...41.27% up in one day.....fab.....perhaps more on monday.....could be close to a very, very big deal for fruitflow....

Well, whatever it turns out to be it has to be an improvement on the nothing that we have had for so long!!

Had a fantastic trade today, decided to top up by 60k shares, didn't notice my computer sticking a predictive number 60 in and as a result bought just that! :o) Bugger!!!!!

Managed a last gasp 55k in the end. (Sigh) Scotch in hand now, been a good week all round so shouldn't complain!

60000 shares or sixty grands worth....?

i like the new name for sirco,should help sales. it dose what it say's on the bottle..

Shares RF! I may be mad but I'm not stupid! Although...erm....oh well! ;o)

At a guess....another rise on monday....some news in the pipeline soon perhaps....

I and mrs balerboy have it every morning..............the drink silly's, must say the mrs's blood presure has remarkably lowered for no other reason that we can think of.,.

you've stopped demanding sex in the supermarket carpark - simples!

Is that before or after drinking Sirco?!

and at last i'm actually showing a very small profit here ...... strange there is no news at all after high volumes and a couple of big (all relative) rises in the last couple of days .... perhaps there is no news and it's just the lemmings getting overexcited

Another 1p and I'm in profit too, keep climbing PXS./.

News this week imo. To coinside with launch of fruitflow at the madrid fair. Little bit like when plane manufacturers annouce deals for planes at air shows. gla

wait for news = no news then

MMs say, "Gotcha yet again!"

Took profit yesterday, just holding free shares now. Keeping an eye on these though as there is certainly a big market for Sirco/Friutflow; whether or not it can be exploited to the full is another matter!

being hearing that for a very long time now, and it's about time the company came up with some contracts or similar
