Could ETQ's share price be soon to benefit from their developments with the new UVGI Nightingale Mobile Air Filtration Product.

New UVGI air filtration product

In November 2002, the ETQ announced its new Nightingale UVGI air filtration product, to be produced by a new joint-venture company, UVGI Systems Limited, owned 55% by the Group and 45% by Suvair Limited. This rapid response mobile air filtration unit is capable of killing the MRSA super bug and other airborne pathogens.

The UVGI unit has widespread application where there is need to keep
air free of dangerous live bacteria, viruses, and fungal spores, including
hospitals, schools, cruise liners, aircraft, food processing, and military
applications.

The UVGI unit uses a high intensity Ultra Violet Germicidal Irradiation ('UVGI')
filter, which has been designed to control harmful and dangerous airborne
pathogens, such as Anthrax, Tuberculosis, and Staphylococcus aureus, the
causative agent in MRSA. The filtration system is combined with use of high
intensity Ultra Violet light, which inactivates micro organisms by disrupting
their DNA structure.

Tests of a prototype at the Defence Science Technology Laboratory ('Dstl') at
Porton Down, the centre for excellence for the Ministry of Defence, showed that
the UVGI unit captured and/or destroyed more than 99.9% of Bacillus subtilis
spores, a simulant for Anthrax bacteria.

Since November, second generation units have been developed, which will go on
applications testing at an NHS Trust Hospital in December 2003, following
building completion of its new haematology unit. It is also anticipated the
UVGI unit will shortly go on laboratory testing in the United States with
contractors nominated by the Department of Homeland Security.

Concern seems to be hotting up on the T.V. news that the MRSA super bug is still killing and disabling people visiting or as patients in NH Trust hospitals. It would be surprising if NH Trust hospital do not notice and Buy this product before they get to many expensive law suits for compensation claims.

Definitely a stock that could soon be heading north. Worth buying in but DYOR

LONDON (AFX) - Hopes of a deal with the NHS provided the spur to Energy
Technique.
The company is behind the Nightingale air filtration unit that kills the
MRSA hospital superbug, and will address a health commission looking into the
superbug crisis.
Nightingale has been shown to be 99.8 pct effective by the Health Protection
Agency at Porton Down, Wiltshire.
Energy Technique, whose shares were 1.00 higher at 6.87 pence by 8.26 am,
said it is still in talks to sell Nightingale units into the National Health
Service.

Charts + Indicators, all looking good :



Level 2 currently very strong and the best it can get at 3 v 1.

sue helen everything you said is going to happen has happend, award yourself a mbbe for services to this bb

Thanks guys....

Couple of tick ups with the price at 6.75-7.50 pence now. Good buying continues with about 2.6 million in buys and 600,000 in sells reported. There should be lots of mentions in the weekend press leading to buying continuing into Monday.

Sue hows the level 2, Not sure how long they can keep the offer at 7.25p .Buys flooding in. Have 3 trades running at present. Rolled over at 7.2p- 7.25p on T25

Very heavy buying continuing. 2 * Market Maker buys have come through at 7.25 pence. WINS who are one of the market makers have another large buy order to fill. WINS were the ones who filled the 500,000 T (single protected purchase) buy at 7.12 pence earlier.

Level 2 at 1 v 1, 6.75-7.25 pence, further gains are likely on Monday.

Friday's Leaders & Laggards
MoneyAM

Energy Technique were ahead 1.25p (21.2%) on hopes that ongoing talks about an NHS deal for its superbug-beating Nightingale filtration system would be fruitful.

Sue cannot see what choice the NHS have. Here is a product that can help in the fight against MRSA .When Hospitals in the US are all ready starting to take up the product. If the NHS fail to support Nightingale and MRSA continues to kill, they ( NHS ) will find themselves with a PR nightmare, when the general public discover what is going on.

what is the price expectancy on this for 2004

just how many cases of superbug have been contracted from air , not many I would think , most cases from dirty hands , dirty everything else , HCEG has got more going for it.

Agree Mad doc also hold HCEG. Good threads on MW website.But a combination of both approaches will imho eradicate MRSA.At present though ETQ has the momentum behind it and is a 1/6th of the value of HCEG.

True MRSA is a contact bug, but the case for having an isolation ward for infected patients is a must and that environment should be kept as sanitised as is poss. Times are moving forward and I'm sure a few years from now people will think it their right to have clean air, especially inside a hospital and in the workplace. A machine such as this that kills 99% of all airbourne germs dead (just as domestos does the loo) has wider implications / benifits for any purchaser. An outbreak of SARS for example could be controlled more easily with proper facilities like isolation wards.

Yoyo , I agree with your argument but the other 1% can still get you !

Press mention : will appear in tomorrow's Daily Mail Newspaper.

maddoc, yes an interesting statistic:- 1:1 people die!

http://www.moneyam.com/InvestorsRoom/ShowPostList?fID=1&tID=3592

Approximately 178,000 shares buy has gone through at a premium to the indicative offer price at a price of 7.375 pence. Interesting.

The 178,000 odd buy orginally went through at 8.13 this morning and reported 1 hour later. Trades over 150,000 shares are delayed in reporting by 1 hour.

With L2 at 1 v 2, a shake may be coming on the bid. One just has to remind themselves of all the heavy buying from roughly the open on Friday at 7.00-7.50 pence. And the 180K odd buy today at a premium price of 7.375 pence.

As always the market makers like playing with the bid price, keep an eye on the offer price.
