Also understand that Galvan gave a very positive recommendation on this earlier today. Not a bad sign.

Saffery Champness acted as the reporting accountant on the April listing of pharmaceutical technology firm Microsaic Systems in a deal that raised £4 million.

Despite the risks associated with bringing any new technology to the market, there were a number of factors that seemed to give investors confidence, says Patel.

'A level of assurance was generated by product development being carried out in partnership with leading pharmaceuticals businesses. With the technology being patented and having the potential for a wide range of applications, there are also opportunities for the company to diversify sales into a number of different markets.'

MICROSAIC WILL BRING A WORLD FIRST TO AIM

Read more:


TECHNOLOGY specialist Microsaic Systems, pioneer of the world's only mini-mass spectrometer, is listing on Aim this month.

The company will be the first technology group to join the market this year when it floats next week, raising £4million.

A spin-out from Imperial College London, Microsaic will have a market value of £12million and has been advised by Numis Securities.

Its desktop device – the Microsaic 3500 – can runs tests for chemicals in liquids, gases and solids.

Microsaic says it is smaller, lighter, cheaper and more energy efficient than conventional systems, and is protected by worldwide patents.

The company works with blue chip partners in the pharmaceuticals sector and the Ministry of Defence, but its invention is also employed by US Homeland Security to test for explosives in fluids at airports.

Serial investor Nigel Wray holds a 7.21 per cent stake in Microsaic.

The total mass spectrometer market is currently worth £2billion but future growth, forecast at 8.5 per cent over the next 12 months, is likely to be in the food and drink industry.

Chief executive Alan Finlay says the firm has taken calls from vineyard owners, who want to test the age of their wine.

He also hopes to gain work from food manufacturers, who face growing health and safety regulation, to test for product contamination.

Microsaic says scandals such as the poisoning of Austrian wine with anti-freeze in the mid-1980s and the 2005 contamination of food by the carcinogen red dye Sudan 1, would never have happened if mass spectrometers had been in use.

Admission to Trading

11 April 2011... Microsaic Systems plc, the developer of miniaturised chip-based scientific instruments, is pleased to announce that admission to trading on AIM will become effective, and dealings in the ordinary shares of the Company will start, at 8.00am today, 11 April 2011, under the ticker symbol "MSYS".

The Admission to AIM follows the Company's successful fund raising, which raised gross proceeds of £4 million by way of an institutional placing of 12,500,000 new shares to institutional investors at 32p per share. On Admission, Microsaic will have a market capitalisation of approximately £12 million.

The net proceeds of the Placing will be used by the Company to fund capital expenditure, manufacturing, sales and field support and new product development, as well as ongoing working capital requirements.

Numis Securities Limited is Nominated Advisor and Broker to Microsaic.

Alan Finlay, chief executive of Microsaic Systems plc, said:

"I am very proud of the progress that our team at Microsaic has made over the past ten years. We have developed a first-to-market position with our novel chip-based mass spectrometer detectors, which we believe will enable us to exploit a large market opportunity across multiple sectors. This is a great achievement and I would like to thank everyone involved for their efforts. I believe this new stage of the Company's evolution will herald the continued growth and development of our business and the creation of further value for our shareholders."

The Business

Microsaic is the first and only company to have successfully miniaturised mass spectrometry ("MS") through the development of its patented chip-based technologies (ionchip®, spraychip® and vac-chip®). The Company's first product, the Microsaic 3500 MiD®, was launched in January 2011. It is a desktop MS system that is smaller, lighter, more energy efficient and cheaper to run than legacy MS systems.

· Mass spectrometry is widely accepted as a 'gold-standard' method for identifying chemicals. As a result, this technique is used routinely by chemists across a range of sectors including government, energy, utilities, pharmaceuticals, environmental, food and drink, healthcare and industrial chemicals.

· The total MS market was worth c. US$3.3 billion p.a. (August 2010) and is forecast to grow 8.5% between 2010 and 2011 (Mass spectrometry market data, SDI, March 2011). More than two-thirds of this highly diversified market is directly or indirectly tied to government, healthcare and regulation-driven demand, such as drug development, diagnostics, food and environmental safety testing.

· Microsaic aims to introduce compact, deployable MS products, based on its core technology, into a series of target markets.

· In addition, the Company continues to innovate and develop next generation products designed to reach wider markets and target additional applications, providing even greater sensitivity for detecting very low concentrations of chemicals (e.g. contaminants, harmful substances or clinical biomarkers) in complex samples (e.g. urine, blood plasma and food).

· Microsaic Systems was established in 2001 as a spin out from Imperial College London.

· Microsaic's technologies are protected by 88 patent applications worldwide of which 36 are granted.
