seeing as mrsa bug is going to be news today here is more detail on acolyte biomedica , a company angle has a 10% stake in .

For Immediate Release 23 March 2004
ANGLE plc
LAUNCH OF MRSA ULTRA-RAPID TESTING PLATFORM BY VENTURE
COMPANY, ACOLYTE BIOMEDICA
ANGLE plc (ANGLE) is pleased to announce that Acolyte Biomedica Ltd, the
company it founded in 1999, expects to launch its MRSA 'superbug' ultra-rapid test
into hospitals in the UK in Q1 2005.
MRSA is the first test to be developed from Acolytes BacLite testing platform.
BacLite reduces the time for identifying both the type of bacteria and, more
importantly, the antibiotic sensitivity of the bacteria from the current 3-4 day standard
to just 2-5 hours. This time advantage will mean clinicians will be able to treat, much
more effectively, serious bacterial infections and prevent potentially fatal
complications, such as sepsis and septic shock, from developing.
The technology was initially developed by Dstl at Porton Down for the detection of
biological weapons in the field. The commercial potential for the technology was
identified by ANGLE consultants, which subsequently led ANGLE to establish
Acolyte in 1999 to exclusively commercialise technology for the rapid diagnosis of
bacterial infection, with simultaneous identification of antibiotic sensitivity. Recently,
Acolyte Biomedica was praised by the Chancellor, Gordon Brown, as a leading
example of biotechnology companies the UK urgently needs.
A recent study by researchers from St Georges Hospital in London and the Health
Protection Agency found MRSA infection rates have increased 19-fold between 1990
and 2001. The study focused on MRSA rates in children up to 15 years of age: in
1991 four cases of MRSA were reported but in 2001, the numbers had increased to
77. Infants under the age of one accounted for 53% of all cases. Not only is MRSA
infection potentially a serious illness in its own right but also there are fears that it
could render other antibiotics used to treat childhood conditions such as impetigo,
useless. Infection with multi-resistant bacteria like MRSA can be more difficult to
treat and can lead to longer stays in hospital with higher levels of morbidity and
mortality.
The launch of BacLite into hospitals in the UK will provide leading edge care to
thousands of patients throughout the country. It is currently estimated that each year,
approximately 5 million tests are carried out in the UK alone to determine the
presence of MRSA in patients, while 3 times this number are performed in the USA.
In this respect, Acolyte further anticipates beginning the process, with a partner, to
obtain FDA 510(k) clearance to market the product in the USA in 2005. The current
- 2 -
market for diagnostic clinical microbiology which could be accessed by Acolyte is
estimated to exceed 1.3 billion, worldwide.
The test itself is based on ultra-high sensitivity technology that permits the
measurement of live bacteria present in specimens at extremely low numbers. By
eliminating the need for several days of culturing to expand bacterial numbers, the
technology could potentially save thousands of lives as well as reduce the high costs
to public health systems of MRSA infections specifically, and sepsis and septic shock
generally.
Andrew Newland, CEO of ANGLE commented:
"The ultimate launch of BacLite into UK hospitals and the moves to enter the US
market represent significant milestones for Acolyte Biomedica and underline the
high value of the technology and the clinical importance of such a testing system.
We at ANGLE are extremely proud to have played such a pivotal role in
establishing Acolyte and, in so doing, bringing this vital new diagnostic technology
to market."

LONDON (AFX) - Angle PLC said its venture company Provexis has successfully completed final phase trials of a nutraceutical which will be 'revolutionary' in controlling cardiovascular health.

Angle's venture company, Provexis, has received positive results for final human trials of an orange juice drink which contains a patented natural fruit extract called CardioFlow. CardioFlow has been developed by Provexis to benefit the circulation and reduce the risk of blood clots typically associated with heart attacks, stroke and deep vein thrombosis.

Provexis was founded by Angle in 2000 using its established Progeny process as a joint venture with the Rowett Institute. Angle retains a 32 pct holding in Provexis.

Angle said the final trial on the product, which started last October and concluded this week, showed that CardioFlow significantly altered the profile of blood platelets, making them less likely to initiate a thrombus.

The group expects the CardioFlow product to be integrated into a new branded beverage which will be on sale in the UK, with an approved health claim in early 2005.

You've been keeping this one to yourself! There seems to be lots positive that is going on. Any analyst forecasts?

Eric

hello eric. i had to sell agl to raise funds to buy more seo , but i still think this is a slow burn long termer. its also getting some serious attention in the press lately. i have seen a few small articles on agl and a half page featyre in the mail (i think) last week. as you say , lots of positives going on and certain investments almost ready to become products , eg cardioflow, which i like because of its obvious markets, airlines, health clubs, etc. i dont know where you would find any analysts forecasts so i cannot answer your question. as i no longer hold agl i dont follow the company as closely as i would if i was still a holder. wish i had had some funds when they bottomed.

bosley

Thanks for the help. Always a problem what to sell when you want to build up a stake in a company like SEO. I've partly solved the problem by turnind to CFDs which increases the exposire for your money. I've invested in a Hemscott report on AGL which gives a concensus EPS of 9.48p in 2005 and 18.2p in 2006. The latter would be a pe of about 8. Charts look positive so I think its worth a play.

Eric

eric, how long did it take to open a cfd account? who did you open one with and why?

this sounds very much like dgm and ibg. im not a holder any more , but still like the company.

ANGLE plc, the venture management and consulting company specialising in the
commercialisation of technology, is pleased to announce the launch of its latest
venture company, Customiser Group Ltd ('Customiser').



In accordance with ANGLE's Progeny(R) process for creating new ventures,
Customiser has secured intellectual property utilising psychological profiling
(more normally found in clinical psychology) and advanced pattern recognition.
The approach has been developed and patented by a team of leading academics
across a number of UK Universities. ANGLE expects to spend up to 500,000 in
this Progeny(R) venture.



Global spend on the internet is now well in excess of $100bn per year and
revenues from internet advertising now exceed $10bn per year. The market for
tailoring content to individual users is still in its infancy, but is already
generating several hundred million dollars per annum in revenue and is widely
predicted to grow rapidly.



Customiser's technology improves targeting of on-line advertising on internet
portal sites, relevancy of search results and product recommendations within
retail sites. The Customiser solution produces substantially better results
than rivals which rely simply on data such as demographics and internet browsing
behaviour.



It is expected that in the future, through Customiser's solution, internet users
will welcome personalised online adverts, search results and product
recommendations rather than wasting time with irrelevant information. Similarly
internet advertisers and retailers will target personally meaningful adverts and
product recommendations to receptive customers.



Commenting on the collaboration with ANGLE, the technology development team's
Andrew Fraser, said:



'We believe that internet personalisation will be worth several billion dollars
in the next few years and our collaboration with ANGLE will place us in an
outstanding position in this market.'

oh i wish i had more money

PROVEXIS ENTERS NEGOTIATIONS FOR A REVERSE TAKEOVER


ANGLE plc, the venture management and consulting company specialising in the
commercialisation of technology, is pleased to announce that venture company
Provexis Limited, the developer of natural bioactive ingredients has entered
negotiations to be acquired by AIM listed Nutrinnovator Holdings PLC
('Nutrinnovator') which develops and markets food and drink products.


The size of the proposed transaction is such that it will be defined as a
reverse takeover and accordingly will be subject, amongst other things, to the
approval of the Nutrinnovator shareholders. As an integral part of the proposed
transaction there will be a fund raising to raise up to 10 million for the
enlarged group. In the collective view of the Boards of Nutrinnovator and
Provexis, the required disclosure for the marketing campaign planned to achieve
the fundraising cannot be confined to a restricted group of potential investors.
As a result shares in Nutrinnovator have been suspended with immediate effect.
The expectation is that the proposed transaction, fundraising and associated
documentation will be agreed and announced on or around 24 March 2005.


Provexis Limited was founded by ANGLE in 2000 using its established Progeny(R)
process as a joint venture with the Rowett Institute (a leading human nutrition
research centre). ANGLE retains a 32% holding in Provexis, which is held on the
balance sheet at 300,000. ANGLE also holds a convertible loan note and certain
other debt instruments due from Provexis. The value of the transaction will be
confirmed following the marketing exercise and ANGLE will provide an update to
the market at that time.



Andrew Newland, Chief Executive of ANGLE, said;


'We are delighted to announce this major event for our venture company, Provexis
Limited. The combination of Provexis and Nutrinnovator presents a compelling
business platform comprising intellectual property, product development,
marketing and retail capability for exploitation of the 2.2bn global market for
heart healthy products and the substantially larger market for functional foods
generally. It is intended to build on Nutrinnovator's sales of its existing
Altu product line with the launch later in the year of Provexis' CardioFlow(R)
in the form of a cardiovascular health fruit drink. We believe this transaction
is a further demonstration of the strength of ANGLE's Progeny(R) process in
building value from intellectual property.

ANGLE plc

GEOMERICS: NEW VENTURE COMPANY

ANGLE plc ('ANGLE'), the venture management and consulting company specialising
in the commercialisation of technology, is pleased to announce the launch of its
latest venture company, Geomerics Ltd ('Geomerics').

Geomerics has secured intellectual property in the field of geometric algebra.
Geometric Algebra is a powerful new form of mathematics that vastly simplifies
complex geometric calculations. Geometric Algebra has its origins in the rather
esoteric academic discipline of theoretical cosmology, but it has now been
developed for application in a wide variety of disparate commercial applications
such as computer graphics in computer games and electromagnetic modelling which
is used, amongst other things, for optimising the design of mobile phone
antennas and reducing the radar signature of ships and planes.

One of the main differentiators between computer games is the speed and quality
of rendering of the graphics. With best-selling games generating several
hundred million dollars for their developers, the quest for better and faster
graphics engines is relentless. Geomerics' technology provides a step-change
improvement over the competition, and is set to revolutionise the market.
Overall the market for computer games is currently worth more than $30bn and
growing rapidly, and the market for graphics within these games is worth over
$600m per year.

Current electromagnetic modelling techniques do not give the accuracy required
in many applications, because the processing power required is prohibitive.
Geomerics' technology has already been used to resolve complex electromagnetic
modelling problems that rival systems have been unable to solve. The
electromagnetic modelling market is worth in excess of $100m per year and there
is also considerable latent demand.

This new approach in applying geometric algebra has been developed by a group of
four leading academics from the University of Cambridge: Professor Anthony
Lasenby (Professor of Astrophysics and Cosmology), Dr Mike Hobson (University
Reader in Astrophysics), Dr Chris Doran (EPSRC Advanced Research Fellow) and Dr
Joan Lasenby (Lecturer in Engineering). Geomerics has also engaged Professor
David Hestenes of Arizona State University (the original inventor of geometric
algebra) and Professor Alyn Rockwood of Colorado School of Mines (a geometric
algebra and computer graphics expert) in an advisory capacity.

In accordance with ANGLE's Progeny(R) process for creating new ventures, ANGLE's
plan is to build a strong commercial offering in each of the key markets
sequentially, seeking a return on its investment in the medium term.
Simultaneously, development work will continue on the geometric algebra
platform. ANGLE expects to spend up to 500,000 in the Progeny(R) venture, which
is presently wholly owned by ANGLE.

Commenting on the collaboration with ANGLE, Professor Lasenby said:

'We have been developing the mathematics and technology behind Geomerics for a
number of years, and now is the perfect time to apply it to commercial
applications. We are delighted that ANGLE will be commercialising our
technology.'

ANGLE's Chief Executive Andrew Newland said:

'Computer graphics and electromagnetic modelling are large, growing markets.
Geomerics' technology is truly leading-edge and we believe it will revolutionise
a wide range of fields. We are delighted to be working with such a high calibre
of academic inventors.'

looks like things are happening.




ANGLE plc

PROVEXIS ANNOUNCES PROPOSED REVERSE TAKEOVER



ANGLE plc, the venture management and consulting company specialising in the
commercialisation of technology, is pleased to announce that venture company
Provexis Limited, the nutraceutical company which develops
scientifically-proven, proprietary, functional foods, supplements and medical
foods, has completed its negotiations with AIM listed Nutrinnovator Holdings PLC
('Nutrinnovator') which develops and markets specialist food and drink products.



The transaction, which is classified as a reverse takeover for Nutrinnovator, is
subject to the approval of the Nutrinnovator shareholders. Nutrinnovator has
received undertakings from shareholders holding approximately 76% of its current
issued share capital that they will vote in favour of the proposals.



In addition to the consideration shares to be issued to the shareholders in
Provexis, new shares in Nutrinnovator are being issued with a value at the
placing price of 5.9m comprising a 3.8m placing and the conversion of 2.1m of
loans. On completion, the new shares in Nutrinnovator are expected to be
re-admitted to trading on AIM on Thursday, 23 June 2005.



From completion, Nutrinnovator will be known as Provexis plc. The Chief
Executive of Provexis Limited, Dr Stephen Franklin, will become the Chief
Executive of Provexis plc. Dr Franklin has a BSc in Biology, a PhD in Applied
Biochemistry, an MBA and over ten years' experience in the creation and
development of early stage bioscience companies. He was previously a Principal
Executive with ANGLE. Dawson Buck, Deputy Chief Executive of ANGLE, will be
the Non-Executive Chairman of Provexis plc.



Dr Stephen Franklin, Chief Executive Officer of Provexis, commented: 'We are
delighted to announce the proposed reverse takeover of Nutrinnovator Holdings
plc. The rationale for integrating the two businesses is compelling with the
Enlarged Group combining a strong scientific team and impressive marketing and
sales expertise.



We believe that the Enlarged Group will be clearly differentiated in the
functional food industry in that it will develop innovative functional food
products with health benefits that are scientifically-proven and therefore have
the potential to carry credible health claims and endorsements. When one
combines this with proven speed-to-market credentials, we believe the result is
a company well positioned in the rapidly growing functional food market'.



Provexis was founded by ANGLE in 2000, using its established Progeny(R) process,
as a joint venture with the Rowett Institute (a leading human nutrition research
centre). Provexis' lead technology is CardioFlow which is a proprietary extract
of tomato, produced industrially to laboratory-determined specifications.
CardioFlow contains a range of tomato-derived components which inhibit platelet
aggregation a part of the blood-clotting process which can cause heart attack
and stroke. The first commercially available product containing CardioFlow will
be a fruit juice drink called Sirco. Nutrinnovator is in discussions with major
high-street retailers and multiple grocers to secure distribution channels for
Sirco and its aim is to launch it in two major UK retailers in the final quarter
of 2005.



ANGLE's investment cost held on the balance sheet to develop Provexis using the
Progeny(R) process is 0.46m. At the placing price, this original investment is
valued at 2.13m representing a multiple on investment of 4.6 times, an increase
of 1.67m over cost. The internal rate of return (IRR) on this investment if it
were to be realised at completion in cash at the placing price would be 78% per
annum.



In addition, ANGLE provided Provexis with convertible loan funding of 0.50m in
February 2005. It has been agreed that this loan will be uplifted to 0.83m and
converted into new shares in Provexis plc at the placing price, representing a
multiple on investment of 1.7 times and an increase of 0.33m over cost.



The overall gain to ANGLE from the transaction is 2.00m at the placing price.




ANGLE believes that the value of Provexis may increase substantially following
the placing if Provexis is successful in its launch of Sirco. ANGLE has
therefore agreed to invest 0.50m in the placing. After the placing and
completion of the reverse takeover, ANGLE will hold 24.8% of Provexis plc's
issued share capital.



ANGLE holds active investments in a total of 8 venture companies, which it has
developed using its established Progeny(R) process. This is the second
successful transaction for ANGLE's venture companies since ANGLE's flotation in
March 2004.





Andrew Newland, Chief Executive of ANGLE, said:



'We are delighted to have agreed this transaction in relation to our venture
company, Provexis Limited. The combination of Provexis and Nutrinnovator with
the new funding proposed presents a compelling business platform comprising
intellectual property, product development and marketing capability for
exploitation of the estimated 835m functional food market in the UK. We
believe this transaction is a further demonstration of the strength of ANGLE's
Progeny(R) process in building value from intellectual property.'

ANGLE plc

TRADING UPDATE



Further to the announcement today of the successful conclusion of negotiations
for Provexis' proposed reverse takeover of Nutrinnovator and funding for the
Enlarged Group, ANGLE plc, the venture management and consulting company
specialising in the commercialisation of technology, is pleased to provide an
update on trading and investment realisations for the year ended 30 April 2005.


Revenue for the year is expected to be not less than 4.0m, at least 39% up on
the previous year.


Operating profits on Consulting & Management are expected to be maintained at or
above the level for the previous year of 0.4m.


Execution of the strategy of investment in the establishment of new Progeny(R)
companies proceeded in line with expectations with planned expenditure to
establish and develop new ventures of some 2.0m being charged to the P&L. This
is a significant planned increase to the corresponding investment in the
previous year of 0.7m.


The overall gain to ANGLE from the Provexis transaction is 2.0m at the placing
price. Since the transaction was completed after the year end, it will fall in
the accounting year ended 30 April 2006 rather than in the year just ended as
had been planned. The internal rate of return (IRR) on ANGLE's investment if it
were to be realised at completion would be 78% per annum.


Following a fall in the share price of AIM-listed Corpora PLC since 31 October
2004, the value of ANGLE's shares in this company (taken as consideration for
the disposal of ANGLE's stake in Progeny(R) company, Exago Ltd) has declined,
resulting in the need for an increase in the provision for the diminution in
value of investments of 0.5m. Even after this write down, the investment is
still valued at 4.2 times cost and the IRR is 91% per annum.


Since its flotation, ANGLE has built its Progeny(R) pipeline of venture
opportunities under evaluation and established four additional Progeny(R)
companies, which the directors believe may have the potential for substantial
capital growth:

ContraSoft - computer software testing technology with the potential for
improvements in productivity, reduced costs and improved software quality;

Customiser - internet personalisation technology for the provision of
customised information to the user;

Geomerics - rapid computational technology for computer graphics and other
uses;

Novocellus - IVF technology for assessing embryo viability.


Progress has also been made in developing the Progeny(R) companies established
before ANGLE's flotation, notably:

Acolyte Biomedica has completed the development of its MRSA testing
product and has announced plans to launch the product commercially in the near
future;

NeuroTargets has progressed its nerve injury and pain treatments and
secured an alliance with BioFocus plc focused on discovering treatments for
nerve injury and pain;

Provexis, in addition to its reverse into Nutrinnovator and related
funding round, has progressed product development and clinical trials of Sirco,
its cardio-vascular health drink and has announced plans for the launch of the
drink in the final quarter of 2005.

Corpora PLC, the AIM listed company in which ANGLE holds shares following the
sale of its Progeny(R) company Exago to Corpora, has recently completed a 3m
placing to fund expansion and announced software product sales to Microsoft and
EDS.


All of the above Progeny(R) companies have been founded by ANGLE and developed
using ANGLE's Progeny(R) process to build value from intellectual property.



Andrew Newland, Chief Executive of ANGLE, said:


'I am pleased with ANGLE's progress in the execution of its ventures investment
strategy and in the development of its underlying Consulting and Management
business. We believe the Provexis transaction is a further demonstration of the
strength of ANGLE's Progeny(R) process in building value from intellectual
property

Acolyte Biomedica launches BacLite(R) Rapid MRSA test


ANGLE plc ('ANGLE') is pleased to announce that its venture company Acolyte
Biomedica Ltd ('Acolyte') has successfully launched its BacLite(R) Rapid MRSA '
superbug' test and that Salisbury District Hospital takes delivery of the first
system today.

The BacLite(R) system uses AK Rapid(R) technology developed by the Defence
Science and Technology Laboratories (Dstl), an agency of the Ministry of Defence
at Porton Down, Wiltshire.

Giving same day results, the BacLite(R) Rapid MRSA test will allow hospitals to
screen patients and hospital workers for the presence of the superbug. This
information will enable infection control teams to act quickly to prevent
hospital acquired infection.

In the UK, the combination of high bed occupancy and very infectious strains of
the superbug means that traditional screening methods are too slow for maximum
effect. Healthcare acquired infections, of which MRSA is the most significant,
are estimated to cause 5,000 deaths in the UK each year. By being able to act
quickly, hospitals can reduce significantly the incidence of mortality and
morbidity. In addition, MRSA costs the NHS around 1 billion per annum, so
reducing the incidence of the infection will have a major financial impact.

The final evaluation of the BacLite(R) system at three UK hospital laboratories,
including Salisbury District Hospital, showed the test can achieve in five hours
what current microbiological methods take two days to deliver. Conclusions to
studies illustrate the confidence that medical staff have when using BacLite(R)
Rapid MRSA test information for admitting patients; the probability that a
negative result was correct (negative predictive value) was over 99%.

Commenting on the launch, Dr Bill Mullen, CEO of Acolyte said:

'Identification of MRSA carriers is critical in overcoming the MRSA problem in
our hospitals. We expect this test to offer a rapid and cost effective screening
method at an important time in the fight against MRSA.'

Andrew Newland, CEO of ANGLE said:

'This launch is a significant milestone for Acolyte and underlines the high
value of the technology and the clinical importance of such a testing system. We
at ANGLE are proud to have played a pivotal role in leading the development of
Acolyte and, in so doing, bringing this vital diagnostic technology to market.

MRSA is just the first application of the technology, which in due course will
be applied to the diagnosis of a wide range of other serious infections.'
