BATM Advanced Communications Limited Announces Commencement of Natslab Molecular Biology Platform BATM Advanced Communications Limited announced that the NATlab molecular biology platform being developed by ADOR Diagnostics ("ADOR"), an associate company of the Group, has commenced pre-clinical validation at the Lazzaro Spallanzani National Institute for Infectious Diseases in Rome, Italy. This marks a key milestone in the development of NATlab and, the Group believes, will enable initial sales as well as increase industry awareness and interest from prospective partners. The advanced NATlab molecular biology platform is a point-of-care sample-to-answer solution designed to provide rapid and accurate diagnosis of infectious disease. It uses a patented isothermal amplification method for syndromic multiplex diagnostics to be able to rapidly identify a broad range of pathogens from a single test. The commencement of the pre-clinical validation phase follows the successful completion of pre-clinical trials, which were conducted at the Tzafom Medical Center in Israel, to confirm the validity of the biological process that ADOR has developed and that it can be performed within the NATlab cartridge and analyser device. NATlab identified all negative samples and had a 97% sensitivity for the positive samples, confirming the efficacy of the system and its ability to out-perform competing solutions available in the market because of its multiplex diagnostic capability for rapid and accurate diagnosis. ADOR has now made significant progress with NATlab with the full system entering the pre-clinical validation phase at the Lazzaro Sp allanzani National Institute forinfectious Diseases in Rome, a leading centre for infectious disease research and treatment. Successful completion of the pre-clinical validation is expected to enable initial sales of the NATlab and the commencement of the regulatory process under the European Union In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation to become eligible for sale in the EU market. In addition, following the success of the pre-clinical trials, ADOR, in collaboration with the Tzafom Medical center, has received a grant from the Israel Innovation Authority to develop a NATlab panel for the diagnosis of stomach ulcers. The total value is NIS 3.4 million (c. $1 million), which is to be granted over two years based on the achievement of milestones. Tillkännagivande • Nov 15

The Group has also been awarded a grant of €0.5 million towards the initial 18 months of the programme with the potential for additional funding to be awarded thereafter for the next stage. The Group was selected by the National Research Council of Italy (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche) ("CNR") under a competitive process involving many companies and after a lengthy and detailed verification phase to participate in the programme alongside one of CNR's research institutes, the Institute for System Analysis and Computer Science (Istituto di Analisi dei Sistemi ed Informatica) ("IASI").

It is also demonstrative of the steps that the Group is taking to drive long-term sustainable growth through investing in constant innovation to maintain the diagnostics division's technological edge. The programme is for the development of a diagnostics system, based on the Rolling Circle Amplification ("RCA") method, for the rapid identification of TB and multi-drug resistant TB.

BATM Advanced Communications Ltd. Launches No-Swab Saliva-Based COVID-19 Test BATM Advanced Communications Ltd. announced that it has launched a new molecular diagnostics kit that uses self-collected saliva samples to test for SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). This significantly improves the sample collection process compared with existing swabbing methods while, as an RT-PCR test, maintaining diagnostic accuracy. The Group has commenced taking orders and expects to begin delivering the kit in April. This new kit, which is part of Adaltis' MOLgen product range, consists of reagents that have been developed to accurately detect SARS-CoV-2 in saliva samples that are collected by an individual chewing a cotton ball for 30 seconds and then spitting it (or spitting directly) into a small plastic collector tube (a Salivette). It uses the RT-PCR technique, which ensures the levels of diagnostic accuracy compared with other saliva-based tests currently available in the market that primarily use the lateral flow method, which are far less accurate causing many false negatives and positives. The reagents are based on the Group's existing COVID-19 antigen kit that tests samples collected via swabbing the upper (via the nose) and middle parts of the throat or fluid from the lungs, and which has five (4+1) gene discovery capability (compared with most kits on the market having three gene discovery capability or less) to enable detection even with a very low viral load. The new test has 100% accuracy for both specificity and sensitivity. By the individual collecting a saliva sample, the test can be administered without the need for any trained healthcare workers in full body personal protective equipment. The test also has the advantage of being non-invasive and comfortable compared with swabbing via the nose (nasopharyngeal swab) or back of the throat (oropharyngeal swab). As a result, it is a far simpler and quicker solution, and has particular benefits for testing children and people with disabilities where the existing swabbing methods can cause distress or the tests are not possible to administer at all.

BATM's NFVTime Now Available for the Public Cloud BATM announces that it has enhanced its NFVTime virtual networking solution to enable deployment via public cloud environments, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. Network function virtualisation ("NFV") enables network functions to be run in software, with a single piece of equipment, rather than requiring multiple pieces of physical hardware. The Group's NFVTime operating system, which was developed by its wholly-owned Telco Systems subsidiary, is licensed by telecommunications and managed service providers (network operators) to allow them to create these virtual networks for their customers. NFVTime was initially available to be run in a network operator's datacentre. The Group has now enhanced NFVTime by enabling its compatibility with, and receiving certification of use for, public cloud environments, including adding further layers of security to the platform. This expands the addressable market for the product to customers that operate cloud-based networks - which is typically enterprise customers or larger operators with a multinational footprint - as well as those that lack the internal resource to run the software in their datacentre.
