Not so much a tip but a tip update. IC happy to buy at 1.39. In my experience that probably means the share is fully valued...

Good statement today about the approval in Australia of a new product.

Nice rise in the share price against the overall market direction.

Summer 2017 FDA approval. 2016 submission. Running out of months.

apad,
There is no sign of a "sight bar" but perhaps the markings (10Lt & 5Lt) are on the inside ....

One has to burst those sachets without getting squirted in the eyes nor fumes up the nose

Good research, P.
Tank should have a sight bar with 10litres marked.
Can't believe the market let me increase these for 90p in July.

New product ...

New! TANK

TANK is a mixing station and distribution point for SWIFT, Tristel's high-level disinfectant for surfaces in animal healthcare environments.

TANK has a capacity of 10L, is made of polyethylene, measures 30 x 30cm / 12 x 12” and weighs 2.4kg / 5.3lbs.

Using TANK is easy:

Pour ten litres of water into TANK.
Take two sachets of SWIFT high-level disinfectant.
Fold each sachet in half and squeeze one side to burst contents through the centre seal.
Pour sachet contents into the ten litres of water in TANK and screw close the lid.
Use the tap on the front of TANK to decant SWIFT working solution into a bucket or into 1L dosing bottles.
Apply SWIFT to surfaces with a mop for floors or a cloth for damp dusting.
Leave surfaces to dry naturally to ensure a five-minute contact time.

Well good luck. I obviously hope you have to pay more LOL :-)

I don't think that this disposal is material. It is simply an employee (not main board), cashing in a bonus. Understandable and pretty standard stuff.

[duncan doughnut] 19/8/2016 21:02

A bit disappointing to see a director sell today, especially as it's so much larger than the recent director buy.

It won't put me off though.

As you'd expect, each healthcare trust seems to produce its own procedure detailing the whos and whats. I found this searching for the word Tristel

hxxp://www.eastcheshire.nhs.uk/About-The-Trust/policies/I/IC%20Cleaning%20Policy%20ECT2453.pdf

appendix 1 on page 15 gives more mentions of Tristel than you can shake a stick at.

It seems when they think ClO2 they think Tristel

An extract from the hospital cleaning specification manual
hxxp://www.ahcp.co.uk/downloads/revised-healthcare-cleaning-manual-2009-06-v2.pdf
Seems up to date although originally 2009


8.5
Dual function chlorine dioxide-based cleaner/disinfectants
These products serve the same purpose as the hypochlorite cleaner/disinfectants discussed at 6.4, but use a different chemical technology. This technology is not currently widely used in UK healthcare premises, but its use is growing quickly, mainly for terminal cleans and during infection outbreaks.

How does it work?
The technology uses two components kept apart in separate sections of a sachet. When combined by manually squeezing the sachet, the components combine to make a solution which both cleans and disinfects, using chlorine dioxide, usually at a concentration of 125 parts per million . The detergent effect removes organic and oily soiling into the solution, while the chlorine dioxide kills microbes by oxidisation.
Because chlorine dioxide is a more effective oxidant than chlorine, the concentration required is smaller than with hypochlorite products.
Benefits
•
there is evidence that this technology is very efficient at the removal and killing of pathogens, and could play a role in reducing infection transmission in specific infections, such as Clostidium difficile where there might be an environmental element to its transmission;
•
the technology does not produce irritant fumes to the same degree as hypochlorite products;
•
chlorine dioxide does not produce chlorinated organics and therefore may be less damaging to the environment than hypochlorite products.

Limitations

This technology is currently more expensive than some hypochlorite products.
Key findings
•
there is well established evidence which suggests that this technology is efficient at removing and destroying pathogens and can contribute to the control of infection;
•
the combination of detergent and disinfectant has the potential to save time and resources;
•
because fewer irritant fumes are produced there is a potential benefit to the health and safety of users.
Key recommendations
There is good evidence that dual function chlorine dioxide-based cleaner/disinfectants are effective in removing and destroying pathogens. There are potential savings in time and resource in combining cleaning and disinfecting processes. Targeted use of the technology is recommended for terminal cleans
and during infection outbreaks to kill and remove microbes along a specific route of infection transmission. Advice from the local Infection Control Team should be sought prior to use.

It seems there is a clear audit trail for each device to be cleaned so accountability should ( my least favourite word) ensure the job is done properly. I wouldn't want to be personally held liable for giving a patient some disease because I had cut corners. Now if only the cleaning contractors in UK hospitals could be held liable for a hospital acquired disease, bring back old style Matrons.

[piedro] 18/8/2016 15:49

Thank you MJ, those are very well produced videos - plenty of detail

My A Chem. is also dated which is why I like the product, it being simple and understandable.
Re: the US market, I wonder if they will have the patience for the cleaning process.

[melton john] 18/8/2016 14:53

Hi Piedro, no denying that ClO2 is a nasty dangerous chemical and very dangerous in bulk. As far as I understand from much reading and an A level in chemistry from well into the last century, :-) , Tristel's proprietary edge is keeping the two chemicals which react to produce ClO2 separate until the point of use. See the second stage of the 3 part cleaning of the bum camera probe in the youtube video. The tissue from the foil wrapper contains one chemical and the operator spends 15 secs thoroughly mixing a blob of foam which contains the other chemical and then you're ready to go.



I haven't had time yet but there seems to be training videos for other products which I assume use the same binary chemical approach where the packaging varies.

I've just dug a little deeper into Clinimax from your previous post, they also produce a ClO2 Biocide but their method is to make a 500ml batch which lasts for 14 days which is probably more economical for mattresses, floors etc. As previously stated, Tristel's edge is in novel proprietary mixing methods and packaging which from recent results, users seem to like.

I'm particularly hopeful for the US market where the probability of litigation as a result of hospital acquired infections makes for a huge market for convenient sterilisation products. You can't put a camera in an autoclave to sterilise it for example.
