Punters racing for the exit.
Small companies are risky, large are safe
and no news is 'no news'.
September/October is the start of 'Events' for Tristel, but none showing for
Asia {as yet}

PIs selling TSTL like it's going out of fashion.
What have I missed?

Shame TSTL not bounced with the rest of the market today (actually down1.5p at the minute).

interesting disjuncture, P.
However, if there is a market and you've got the sales inlet---why not?

Thanks piedro. I wish there was one of you on every board.

From 'The Clinical Services Journal'

Why disinfect when you can Tristel?
August 2015
Since it was first discovered that microbes cause infection, there has been a continued search for methods to destroy them. Some of the earliest weapons developed, phenolics for example, have been withdrawn for safety reasons. The remaining solutions that we rely on today – such as quaternary ammonium compounds, hypochlorites and chlorine – all have their drawbacks but continue to be used due to the limited choices available. Tristel’s chlorine dioxide chemistry represents something better. ... ...

and, another ...
the latest addition to the Anistel range of infection control products. It is a multi-purpose cleaning and disinfecting solution for surfaces in animal healthcare environments.
PHOENIX is effective at the economic dilution of 1:200, making it by far the most effective dilution on the market.

2 new products on the website ...
For cleaning and disinfecting hard surfaces of non-invasive, non-lumened medical devices such as monitors, IV poles, beds, patient trolleys and X-ray equipment. Distel PHMB-Free Medical Surface Disinfectant is effective against organisms at a dilution of 1:200.

Maybe spoke to soon about Tristel's resilience! Starting to crack later in the day.

Dow down a very big ~600 today so tomorrow likely to be rough again too...

Good old Tristel has been holding up relatively well considering the carnage in the wider market (long may it continue), but looking at the Dow futures now is not settling the nerves at all at the minute!

Lots of buys over the past three days which is encouraging (albeit many little).

Hi Piedro - Does Penn know about Tristel already?

I didn't see them mentioned by name in their study by name...I think it questioned the efficacy of various surface methods as so calling out Tristel as effective for c.diff etc would have been encouraging (I'm sure Tristel can put them right if they didn't! :)

Clearly, Penn Medicine knows all about Tristel wipes.

Tristel has a great product amongst the many on the market.
One question is how it is to be rated ... best, 2nd,3rd ......
10th... and by whom?

Working my way through the Technical Brief.

Strategies for Environmental Cleaning
Forty-seven primary studies (11–57) and 2 systematic reviews (58–59) focusing on cleaning and disinfecting were identified. Of the 47 primary studies, 27 (57%) were done in the United States, and the remaining 19 were done in the United Kingdom, Australia, Sweden, Canada, Norway, and Italy. Studies were published between 1998 and September 2014; 28 (60%) were published since 2012, reflecting recently intensified interest in this topic.

Only 5 primary studies (11%) were randomized, controlled trials, and 1 (2%) was a randomized crossover study. Study durations ranged from 4 weeks to 43 months. Most studies (n = 31 [66%]) used a primary outcome of surface contamination. Only 16 studies (34%) reported pathogen colonization or infection rate as a primary outcome, and C. difficile was mostly commonly assessed.

Cleaning and disinfecting methods were generally categorized as surface cleaning or disinfecting, automated processes, or effectiveness of enhanced coatings or surfaces for disinfecting. Studies examining chemical disinfectants reported mixed findings, including reductions in VRE (51) and C. difficile rates (16, 20–21, 54) with the use of bleach-based disinfectants; decreased C. difficile spore levels with the use of accelerated hydrogen peroxide (48); and ineffectiveness of a chlorine-based product in reducing C. difficile contamination and infection rates (14). Six studies integrating various wipes (such as hydrogen peroxide) into preventive strategies (15, 17, 25–28) reported positive outcomes, including sustained reductions in C. difficile infection rates (15, 27). Seventeen studies implementing no-touch methods (such as ultraviolet [UV] light and hydrogen peroxide vapor) reported positive findings (11, 13, 19, 29–31, 39–40, 42, 44–46, 50, 52–53, 56), and 3 of these studies specifically found reduced infection rates (29–31). Seven of 8 studies (88%) evaluating enhanced coatings, such as copper-coated surfaces, reported positive findings (12, 32–37).

Hi Source - good idea, I'll sent the Penn study to Tristel

[rcturner2] 13/8/2015 16:15

Welcome back Piedro.

[source] 13/8/2015 16:11

Hi Piedro, hope you are well - as ever an interesting find. Probably why it may be good for Tristel to enter the USA market (which is huge) so they don't have to worry about surface disinfection!...

If I were Tristel I would send Penn Medicine a few copies of Tristels academic studies showings its products effectiveness at surface disinfection!!!

AUGUST 10, 2015
Penn Study Finds Important Gaps in Evidence for Best Methods for Cleaning Hospital Rooms to Prevent Healthcare-associated Infections
Additional research needed to help lower risk for patients
PHILADELPHIA – Tray tables, bed rails, light switches, and toilets: All are common vectors for swapping germs between patients and health care workers. While a new systematic overview in this week’s Annals of Internal Medicine points to several promising cleaning tactics of these “high-touch surfaces,” there’s a lack of evidence as to which is the most effective at reducing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Few studies measured patient outcomes or focused on newer technologies, and even less compared cleaning tactics against one another — important gaps to fill as the U.S. health care system works to reduce the 75,000 HAI-related deaths that occur annually. ... ...

Old hat, but this is still worth a read:

I guess the US news is working out of the share price as well, S.

It was odd receiving such a payout from an AIM mini :-)

12 Oct FY, I believe.

Nice to see a few using their recently received Tristel dividend money and putting it to good use by buying more today! :)

Likely to drift on no news till October (hopefully good!) anyway so nice to see a bit of a jump today...
