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

Suprising that it coincides with the MRSA news. Expect a positive update from the Basingstoke trials soon !

Yoyo

Look at the chart, there have been sudden spikes like this before.

It will fall back again & the downward trend will continue.

The Nightingale is too expensive, see my previous posts starting at post 21 & especially post 38.

Click on the All messages button & read this thread.

I know that Happy1 will disagree because he bought in much higher & wants it to recover.

I think Happy1 is wrong about this one but he was right about Superscape so he is probably much happier about that.

apple you were saying it is only for rent not for sale. You are a bloody deramper by the looks of things. You would have told people not to buy at 4p and then denied them of a 43% rise in their money !!

PRESS RELEASE

First sale of Nightingale bug killer into US health system NHS targetted
July 7, 2004: Energy Technique plc has sold its Nightingale air filtration system - developed to kill the MRSA hospital superbug, TB, and other dangerous germs - into the US healthcare system.

The breakthrough sale comes as Energy Technique continues discussions to use
Nightingale within the National Health Service.

The first unit sold in the US will be used by the Northwest Hospital Center in
Randallstown, Maryland. Other sales to US hospitals are expected to follow through Energy Techniques partnership with the US manufacturer, NQ Environmental.

Energy Technique Managing Director Leigh Stimpson said: Following the careful
development and pre-marketing work we have put into Nightingale, this landmark
early sale is great news for Energy Technique.

We are confident it will strengthen our case for this product to be used within the NHS, where its powerful infection control capabilities could have enormous impact.

Energy Technique is currently discussing numerous prospects with several NHS
trusts following successful trials of Nightingale at the Health Protection Agency laboratories at Porton Down. Two units are currently undergoing clinical trials with the Basingstoke NHS Trust in Hampshire.

Nightingale uses ultraviolet radiation combined with sophisticated air flow systems to attack the DNA of killer germs such as the MRSA hospital superbug, anthrax and TB.

First announced at the end of 2002 following prototype testing, the system has
subsequently undergone further development ahead of extensive commercial
marketing.

Apple I hear what you are saying, but the previous spikes are to be somewhat expected when a stock has been purely speculative. The product is now in the market place as fact and is no longer fiction. To get a new product into the high street shops is not easy, ask James Dyson. ETQ have jumped THE major hurdle and have an exciting future.

no UP 68.7%

That is more than just a spike, it's a VERY NICE SPIKE!


Last year, I phoned the company & Joe Tufo said the Lease is 2000/Year

PLUS

4000/Year Maintainence

Has this changed?

I suggest that you phone the company & ask especially before diving in after a 68.7% rise!

SOLD/BOUGHT/CUSTOMER HAS PAID MONEY

Kapiche ?

Regardless of your old bit of news your stuburness has made yourself lose an awaful amount of potential money !

Happy1

Don't start personal attacks just be happy that you can get some of your money back.

I guess from your posts since January that you need more than 10p to get all your money back.

Good luck!

Yep, I missed a nice big spike but we can all say that with hindsight.
A hindsight of a temporary speculative spike.

It has already fallen back & I will be very surprised if it gets to 10p within a year.

Be happy with your recent gains on SPS, you picked a very good one there!

Not personal just annoyed with your ramblings. No I am sitting on free shares having sold out at 15p keeping the profit in stock ;-)

Hold on wave 2

London & Boston has a is a big share holder in Energy Techniquesee see details below. Have a look at L&B web site it seems to be moving in the right direction at last.

Energy Technique Plc


In accordance with the Companys enhancement policy, London & Boston organised a consortium (including Harrell, the Chairman of Rotch, a company connected with the family of Geoffrey Dart and London & Boston) to invest 1.1m for 50.2% of Energy Technique, which has a full listing on the London Stock Exchange. The investment was completed on 15 June 2001. At that time London & Boston invested 230,354 in cash and 182,000 by the issue to Energy Technique of 1,820,000 Existing Ordinary Shares of 2p each in London & Boston at 10p each in exchange for the issue to London & Boston of ordinary shares in Energy Technique representing approximately 18.81% of Energy Techniques share capital plus options over a further 4% of this company exercisable within 5 years. Geoffrey Dart resigned as chairman of the company and Graham Mackenzie was appointed. Stephen Komly remains the senior non-executive director.

First established in 1879, Energy Technique specialises in the design, manufacture and distribution of high quality air conditioning and heating products. With an impressive customer list, including the Houses of Parliament, Nat West, HSBC and Barclays Banks, Marks & Spencer, Land Securities and Hilton hotels, The Savoy and Claridges hotels. The company has developed a high tech, energy saving, air conditioning system called the Ambassador System for commercial and hotel use. The consortium has brought and will continue to bring new introductions and business opportunities to expand Energy Techniques core Diffusion business.

The company has caused considerable excitement due to its innovative development of a system which removes all known airborne pathogens. The Company won the Fastest Moving Share Award for 2002 rising to 30p per share at one point from the 3p at which London & Boston arranged the re-financing of the company in June 2001

Well a retractment was expected.

Now time to add further.

TODAYS FINANCIAL TIMES mentions ENERGY TECHNIQUE as one of the SHINERS of last week stating that with the USA deal the UK deals with the NHS should follow due to this breakthrough! Give this a few more months and this should be at a reasonable level. The pattern so far has been like TADPOLE and YOOMEDIA a doubling of shareprice with a slight dip back and then onwards with more deals no doubt. We should see 20p within months I reckon -good luck all that are in!!

Todays's News of the World Newspaper:

EXCLUSIVE: Ridding hopsitals of MRSA isn't rocket science Mr Blair..just try cleaning them


MRSA hospital disgrace



By Melanie Swan and David McGee

THIS is the disgusting, grime-infested sight that appalled a frantic dad when he took his three-day-old baby to an MRSA-infected hospital for surgery.

The 35-year-old father rushed his son Alexander to St George's Hospital in Tooting, south-west London hoping doctors would reassure him about the baby's bowel problem.

But he ended up fearing for the tot's life when he realised medics would OPERATE on his child in the filthy room, with its blood-stained floor strewn with used dressing packets and dirty swabs.

Doctors surgically removed a small piece of tissue from Alexander's lower intestine for testing, using invasive surgery which could have exposed him to deadly MRSA.

Syringes

"It was a disgrace," said the engineer from south London, who does not wish to be named.

His pictures reinforce our campaign for Tony Blair to wipe out MRSAwhich kills up to 20,000 people each yearby making sure hospitals are kept clean. They show:

Used NEEDLES on chairs yards from baby Alexander's incubator

A BLOOD-STAINED bedside cabinet

Thick DIRT on the child's life-saving intravenous drip machinery.

The tot's furious dad added: "This dirt was so thick I could scrape it off. I couldn't believe these were the conditions supposed to be curing my son.

"Used bits of equipment were all over the place, including syringes on seats. And to top it all, the blood on the floor had footprints going through it. Staff just shrugged when I asked about it. I asked for a cleaner to come and it took six hours. But the dirt on the intensive care machine was never cleaned up.

"The z-bed we were given to stay on overnight had holes in it with stuffing falling out. And there was something that could only be described as old blood dripping down a cabinet."

St George's Healthcare Trust is ranked the 11th most infected by MSRA among specialist hospitals in Britain. It had 93 cases last year.

We showed the shocking photographs to News of the World columnist Dr Hilary Jonesand he spelled out just how lucky baby Alexander was to have survived the ordeal unscathed.

Grimy

"These pictures appear to show grimy intravenous equipment, stains on the floor potentially harbouring micro-organisms and even blood on incubators," he said.

"Bacteria hazards build up and include infections such as pneumonia, meningitis and septicaemia, which has a 20 per cent mortality rate. One of the major causes of death in tiny babies is infection.

"We're seeing more cases of MRSA in paediatric wards than ever before. Conditions need to be absolutely sterile to reduce the risk of infection."

St George's spokesman Paul Spindler said: "Specialist hospitals have many cases involving invasive treatment, which make them more susceptible to infections such as MRSA.

"We try to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness and will be looking into your story very closely as a way of learning any lessons."

Bug plan is not enough

PLANS to tackle the deadly MRSA superbug don't go far enough, say the News of the World's Patients' Panel.

Health Secretary John Reid has vowed to give patients bedside hotlines to cleaners, increase ward inspections and give nursing chiefs more powers.

But pensioner panellist Alf, who picked up MRSA during a heart op several years ago, says: "There need to be more isolation wards to contain the bug. And hospital staff need more training."

Mum Diana, who has a diabetic seven-year-old son,said: "Every time I walk into the hospital I worry he might pick up something.

"I hope this isn't all just more hot air from the government."

Tanker driver Steven, 42, suffers from heart disease and says nurses must fully embrace the measures if we are to stamp out the threat.

Mum-of-three Anna, 32, who has breast cancer, says: "If the hotline is to work there has to be immediate action."

Final Patients' Panellist, pregnant trainee teacher Susan, 33, said: "My baby is due in six months but I'll be terrified if we don't get results by then."

Our undercover panel of five patients is monitoring the NHS to see whether Tony Blair is delivering his health promises.

Nearly ready to buy into these, siginificant retreat from highs of 8 pence three weeks ago, current price : 5.00-5.75 pence. Waiting now to see if the price holds at this level, if it does, I am in.

Looks like I was right again about spikes in this stock.

This was just another spike.

The fundementals don't support the share price & the price of the current product is too high.

This company can be a winner if it uses the technology in big air con system but that may not happen til next year.
