Now I know there is plenty of demand for them all... but....

If Bams works to the reported S and S levels. How will that affect the PCR testing?

Especially if you consider it could be exceptionally sensitive and specific and cheap.

If, in addition, they can turn out results in a minute which means 1000 per day per machine per employee working roughly an eight hour day that surely has to be a real competitor to PCR testing.

Cheaper, quicker and just as sensitive.

Nova market cap is 630m....nearly x3 ours... food for thought..

Doesn’t look like a mass spectrometry machine. Google them. Huge and quite different.

Look at meeeeeee!!!

Rereading tweet...

Clear the bams is now at various sites so the pipettes have been sent out...

“ We are conducting a clinical evaluation of the BAMS assay at several sites in the UK and will update the market shortly when we have those data. We continue to make significant commercial progress for these tests, and the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein research ELISA. ”

It’s got to be days away. I’d be surprised if no news by end of next week.

Assume contracts then follow.

Energy yes... bams will be a huge relief... it will underpin 300p + imo and takes a lot of pressure off the LFT process.

Get it out!

Also very possible it’s being done in batches... she said the first lot was going to Manchester royal infirmary hospital.

They could have gone a week ago which would mean results really are imminent...

Famous last words!

Bump

So... back to perdita....

3 days ago they were ‘well on their way to 60,000 pipettes’

On second November they said they had a target of 29,500 with 500 done...

So it I reckon has taken them a week to get to the 30k required...

They are clearly increasing their target given they hit the 30k required initial target in a week.

So I think they have been going on the 30k batch for 4 days...

Assume transfer etc I reckon they should be testing the mass spectrometry right about now...

We worked out 30 seconds per test... say all 30k are for avacta....

Using just 3 machines that is 10k per machine so about 10 days....

If they double that to 6 machines (think they will) that’s 5 days...

Add 5 days for reporting etc....

Probably looking at end of next week/beginning one after...

The other name is frank sobott... a mass specie from Leeds as his twitter bio says...

Funny, do we know anyone else with a connection to Leeds...?

Ducks, ducks, ducks

More exciting is the name in that doc.., perdita barran... the same lady liking the photos of thousands of the pipettes on twitter.

And guess who perdita is followed by.... avacta.... how very odd....

Suggest keeping your eyes on her twitter!

This is going away anytime soon.

Avacta. Now would be a good time to release a 99.9/98+ level LFT.

No rush....

It worried me. Laugh or not. They have had some form of our test for a long time so to say saliva does not work and then go on to talk about how great the innova test is was odd.
granted I thin John bell is a bit whacko given vaccine comments but still it is concerning.

Market still not convinced though

Would love to know a bit more about the issues with hamburgers and saliva.

I found it odd a swab inside the mouth works well but saliva apparently doesn’t.

Quite happy to convert the avacta spit into a mouth swab if Johnny wants.

Just don’t quite see the issue (when before saliva has been heralded as a better indicator)

Also, going back..l what was this reagent John bell once referred to when he said a saliva LFT was highly accurate.

Clearly wasn’t speaking about the innova test given the numbers we have seen

Trip, good to know he’s ok. Equally don’t wish it on anyone, but funny he doesn’t pop over here when odx is heading to the dogs eh...

Call it a minute a test then... it’s clearly quicker.

But not hard to see how BAMs becomes very relevant very quickly.

As for John bell... his “yes,yes,yes” comment added a lot of fuel to the vaccine fire.

Which is clearly BS until the data is known.

Unprecedented... you know full well it has been posted and discussed.

Must. Try. Harder.

Ps. Interesting posting history

If it is that quick and 99.9% accurate... I recall someone saying 1000 per day could be processed by a single BA Hons graduate.

Call it an 8 hour day... 480 minutes... so c.30 seconds per sample.

That is bloody quick.

Given the number of mass spec machines out there and no being used. You can see how vital these could be.

Would basically be in the death of PCR which cost a fortune if it was as accurate.

Obviously demand suggests PCR won’t die out (don’t worry nova holders ;)

City, mortgage has never been invested, that is very clear

Best just to laugh at the old fool

Anyone know how quick BAMS is?

What is the turnaround from saliva to result assuming you have the bod and the machine on site...

I’m assuming these can’t be operated by anyone, if you do have a BA (WITH HONOURS)
